Perampanel Blocks Transsynaptic α‐Synuclein Propagation and Neurodegeneration in a Mouse Model of Lewy Body Disease

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Transsynaptic α‐synuclein propagation plays a crucial role in the progression of Lewy body disease. We previously demonstrated that an α‐amino‐3‐hydroxy‐5‐methyl‐4‐isoxazolepropionic acid receptor antagonist, perampanel, blocks neuronal uptake of α‐synuclein preformed fibrils (PFFs) in an activity‐dependent manner.

Rapid generation of prion disease models using AAV‐delivered PrP variants in knockout mice

Brain Pathology, EarlyView.
We developed a rapid AAV‐based system to generate prion disease models in weeks rather than months. Following systemic AAV9P31 delivery of modified PrP to knockout mice, we achieved brain‐wide expression and successful propagation of both classical (RML) and atypical (GSS‐A117V) prion strains.

Orchestrated molecular changes of proliferative, migratory‐fibrillar, synaptic, and postmigratory compartments align with precocious cortex‐type specification in the early human pallium

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Early human cortical development is organized by transient cellular compartments that define cortical types before mature layers form. Analysis of the human fetal pallium (7.5–15 PCW) shows distinct spatiotemporal trajectories for the archicortex, mesocortex, and neocortex, with delayed but accelerated differentiation in allocortical regions.

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

Journal 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

Distinct alterations of adiponectin, fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF‐21), and insulin‐like growth factor binding protein 2 (IGFBP‐2) link dysmetabolism with cognitive decline across the Alzheimer's disease spectrum

Alzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract INTRODUCTION Metabolic disorders are risk factors for Alzheimer's disease (AD), although underlying mechanisms remain unclear. We investigated the relationship between peripheral metabolic markers – adiponectin, fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF‐21), and insulin‐like growth factor binding protein 2 (IGFBP‐2) – and AD.

Learning to smell danger: Acquired associative representation of threat in the olfactory cortex

Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2014
Neuroscience research over the past few decades has reached a strong consensus that the amygdala plays a key role in emotion processing. However, many questions remain unanswered, especially concerning emotion perception.

The Sense of Smell (SoS) Atlas: Its Creation and First Application to Investigate COVID‐19 Related Anosmia With a Comprehensive Quantitative MRI Protocol

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Volume 63, Issue 2, Page 574-593, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Background The loss of smell (anosmia) has been noted in numerous diseases, including COVID‐19. Inflammatory and microstructural alterations are possible underlying mechanisms of anosmia in COVID‐19. However, no atlas exists to study olfaction and the associated tissue property changes.

Illuminating Vertebrate Olfactory Processing [PDF]

, 2012
The olfactory system encodes information about molecules by spatiotemporal patterns of activity across distributed populations of neurons and extracts information from these patterns to control specific behaviors.

Hippocampal Chandelier Cells Modulate Seizure Susceptibility and Severity

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 4, 19 January 2026.
The axon initial segment (AIS), crucial for action potential initiation, serves as a prime locus for controlling network activity. Chandelier Cells (ChCs), evolved in the mammals, intricately target AISs, acting as gatekeepers for neuronal firing. Diminishing ChC input makes animals more prone to developing seizures, whereas fortifying this connection ...

Effects of Odor on Emotion, with Implications

Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2013
The sense of smell is found widely in the animal kingdom. Human and animal studies show that odor perception is modulated by experience and/or physiological state (such as hunger), and that some odors can arouse emotion, and can lead to the recall of ...
