In multiple sclerosis, the disruption of the blood‐spinal cord barrier (BSCB) induced by CXCL13 facilitates the infiltration of inflammatory cells into the central nervous system, resulting in demyelination and neuronal injury. Mechanistically, the deleterious impact of CXCL13 on the BSCB is associated with a reduction in tight junction protein ...

Has wild poliovirus been eliminated from Nigeria? [PDF]
Wild poliovirus type 3 (WPV3) has not been seen anywhere since the last case of WPV3-associated paralysis in Nigeria in November 2012. At the time of writing, the most recent case of wild poliovirus type 1 (WPV1) in Nigeria occurred in July 2014, and WPV1 has not been seen in Africa since a case in Somalia in August 2014.

This study presents a novel portable grasp‐assist glove, weighing only 47 g. The glove integrates smart adhesive pads and a hands‐free control interface based on IMU, designed to aid rheumatic patients with impaired hand function. The system enables switchable adhesion with independent control and detection of user release intent.

Activation of Brainstem Neurons During Mesencephalic Locomotor Region-Evoked Locomotion in the Cat
The distribution of locomotor-activated neurons in the brainstem of the cat was studied by c-Fos immunohistochemistry in combination with antibody-based cellular phenotyping following electrical stimulation of the mesencephalic locomotor region (MLR ...

This study uses Caenorhabditis elegans to assess the activity of amphetamine‐type stimulants (ATS) and their analogs. The research highlights the roles of dopamine and serotonin pathways, distinguishes chiral forms of ATS, and identifies structure‐activity relationships. These findings provide a rapid and cost‐effective model for evaluating the effects
