The human intelligence evolved from proximal cis‐regulatory saltations

open access: yesQuantitative Biology, Volume 13, Issue 2, June 2025.
Abstract The divergence rate between the alignable genomes of humans and chimpanzees is as little as 1.23%. Their phenotypical difference was hypothesized to be accounted for by gene regulation. We construct the cis‐regulatory element frequency (CREF) matrix to represent the proximal regulatory sequences for each species.

Role of Glutamate Excitotoxicity in Glioblastoma Growth and Its Implications in Treatment

open access: yesCell Biology International, Volume 49, Issue 5, Page 421-434, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Glioblastoma is a highly malignant and invasive type of primary brain tumor that originates from astrocytes. Glutamate, a neurotransmitter in the brain plays a crucial role in excitotoxic cell death. Excessive glutamate triggers a pathological process known as glutamate excitotoxicity, leading to neuronal damage.

Role of Serum Brain‐Derived Neurotrophic Factor as a Biomarker of Chronic Pain in Older Adults

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Pain, Volume 29, Issue 5, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Serum brain‐derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) has emerged as a promising biomarker for chronic pain (CP) research and treatment. Yet, most human studies have been limited by small sample sizes, inadequate control of confounders and a lack of focus on sex and mental health differences.

Ibudilast Protects Retinal Bipolar Cells From Excitotoxic Retinal Damage and Activates the mTOR Pathway

open access: yesGlia, Volume 73, Issue 5, Page 905-927, May 2025.
Main Points Ibudilast, a MIF and PDE inhibitor, preserves the form and function of the retina, especially bipolar cells, during excitotoxic damage. Ibudilast upregulates multiple signaling pathways, including mTOR, in damaged Müller glia and bipolar cells.
