AAV8 vector induced gliosis following neuronal transgene expression

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience
IntroductionExpression of light sensitive ion channels by selected neurons has been achieved by viral mediated transduction with gene constructs, but for this to have therapeutic uses, for instance in treating epilepsy, any adverse effects of viral ...

Gene therapy for epilepsy: An emerging, promising approach for a serious neurological disorder

open access: yesJournal of Internal Medicine, Volume 299, Issue 3, Page 302-327, March 2026.
Abstract Gene therapy is emerging as a groundbreaking strategy for treating epilepsy, offering new hope to patients who do not respond to conventional medications. Despite advancements in anti‐seizure treatments, nearly 30%–40% of individuals with epilepsy continue to experience uncontrolled seizures, highlighting the urgent need for more effective and

A Review of Adaptive Mechanisms in Fish Retinal Structure and Opsins Under Light Environment Regulation

open access: yesFishes
Light, as one of the most crucial environmental factors, plays an essential role in the growth, physiology, and evolutionary survival of fish. To cope with diverse light conditions in aquatic environments, fish adapt through photosensory systems composed

The cellular fate of mutant rhodopsin: quality control, degradation and aggresome formation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Mutations in the photopigment rhodopsin are the major cause of autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa. The majority of mutations in rhodopsin lead to misfolding of the protein.

Adaptive colour change and background choice behaviour in peppered moth caterpillars is mediated by extraocular photoreception

open access: yes, 2019
Light sensing by tissues distinct from the eye occurs in diverse animal groups, enabling circadian control and phototactic behaviour. Extraocular photoreceptors may also facilitate rapid colour change in cephalopods and lizards, but little is known about

Tailored for swift recognition: A structural perspective on secondary active plant hormone transporters

open access: yesThe Plant Journal, Volume 125, Issue 5, March 2026.
Significance Statement This review synthesizes current knowledge of plant hormone transporters across five major protein superfamilies. It links structural classification to transport mechanism and substrate specificity and demonstrates that this structural perspective provides a predictive framework for understanding substrate scope, selectivity ...

Optimal neuromuscular performance requires motor neuron phosphagen kinases

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, Volume 604, Issue 5, Page 2027-2059, 1 March 2026.
Abstract figure legend Motor neuron (MN) terminals in fruit flies, mice and humans contain phosphagen kinases, a key enzyme in their energy storage and buffering system. Here we knocked down the primary phosphagen kinase in fruit fly larvae (arginine kinase 1 (ArgK1)) but were surprised to find that MN endurance was unaffected.

Chemosensory gene expression analysis in the argentine ant, linepithema humile [PDF]

open access: yes
This experiment was conducted to determine expression patterns of a subset of chemosensory genes, including odorant receptors (Ors) and odorant binding proteins (OBPs), in the invasive Argentine ant, Linepithema humile.
