Imidazoline receptor antisera-selected protein: a unique modulator of neuronal differentiation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The imidazoline I1 receptor (I1-R) is a novel receptor found primarily in the brain and nervous tissue where it modulates neurotransmission. It is named for its high affinity for compounds with an imidazoline structure such as the anti-hypertensive drugs,

Plasma and Synovial Fluid VEGF‐A and Neuropilin‐1 in Knee Osteoarthritis: Associations With Radiographic Severity, Pain Sensitization‐Related Features, and Disease Burden

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to investigate associations of plasma and synovial fluid vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF‐A) and neuropilin‐1 (NRP1) levels with radiographic severity, pain sensitization‐related features, and disease burden in knee osteoarthritis (KOA). Plasma VEGF‐A and NRP1 were measured by sandwich ELISA in 120 patients with KOA (

Delivery of NGF to the Brain: Intranasal versus Ocular Administration in Anti-NGF Transgenic Mice

open access: yes, 2009
Nerve growth factor (NGF) has a great potential for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease. However, the therapeutic administration of NGF represents a significant challenge, due to the difficulty to deliver relevant doses to the brain, in a safe and non ...

The FGF/FGFR System in the Biology and Therapeutic Landscape of Pediatric CNS Tumors

open access: yesMedicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Central nervous system (CNS) tumors are the most common solid malignancies in children, comprising a highly heterogeneous group of neoplasms defined by distinct molecular alterations and clinical behaviors. Advances in molecular genetics have underscored the relevance of specific signaling pathways in driving pediatric tumorigenesis, among ...

Coexisting ant species differ in ability to meet their intrinsic nutritional needs

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Coexisting species are often assumed to reduce competition by foraging for foods that differ in nutrient composition, but few studies test whether field nutritional differences correspond to intrinsic differences in macronutrient selectivity. We compared field estimates of worker trophic position (tissue isotopes: δ15N) and worker tissue stoichiometry (

Stem cell–mediated neuroplasticity and psychological recovery in cancer survivors: Mechanisms, evidence, and translational challenges

open access: yesPrecision Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
Cancer therapies can trigger neuroinflammation and disrupted neuroplasticity, contributing to cognitive impairment and psychological distress in survivors. Stem cells (NSCs/MSCs) and their extracellular vesicles may restore neural niches via trophic support, immunomodulation, synaptic remodeling, and vascular repair, but require rigorous safety, dosing,
