Reductionism in Engram Neuroscience
Reductionist methods inspire several seemingly incompatible explanations and ontologies. But such adversarial approaches can be fruitful for theorising in neuroscience. We argue that reductionist methods are at their most useful when coupled with integrative practices that include multiple heterarchical levels of organisation, various kinds of analysis,

Cells rely on mitochondria and peroxisomes to trigger antiviral defenses via the protein MAVS. This manuscript demonstrates that the robust production of antiviral effectors resulting from MAVS activation at peroxisomes is faster than at mitochondria due to a swifter oligomerization of this protein at peroxisomal membranes. These results underscore the

The GPCR Connection: Linking Alzheimer's Disease and Glioblastoma
ABSTRACT Alzheimer's disease (AD) and glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) are biologically distinct age‐related brain disorders with opposing clinical phenotypes. AD is characterised by progressive neurodegeneration and cognitive decline, whereas GBM is characterised by aggressive cellular proliferation and a poor prognosis.

Possible alignment of the EU BSE surveillance with the new WOAH provisions
Abstract The European Commission requested the assessment of the capacity of the surveillance provisions of the World Organization for Animal Health (WOAH) to detect bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) cases (C‐, H‐ and L‐type) in the European Union (EU) and to propose if any current EU surveillance provisions should be kept.

CADASIL is the major cause of early‐onset stroke and cognitive dysfunction, including dementia. It is caused by mutations in the NOTCH3 receptor that result in the formation of protein aggregates in the small vessel walls of the brain. We demonstrated that NOTCH3 CADASIL variant receptor aggregation is strictly dependent on interactions with NOTCH3 ...
