Protective Potentials of Natural Products Against Vascular Dementia: A Comprehensive Review of Experimental Studies

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vascular dementia (VaD), accounting for up to 20% of dementia cases globally, is primarily driven by chronic cerebral hypoperfusion (CCH), which leads to progressive cognitive impairment. Despite the increasing prevalence of VaD, effective treatments remain limited.

Molecular Determinants of S100B Oligomer Formation

PLoS ONE, 2011
S100B is a dimeric protein that can form tetramers, hexamers and higher order oligomers. These forms have been suggested to play a role in RAGE activation.Oligomerization was found to require a low molecular weight trigger/cofactor and could not be detected for highly pure dimer, irrespective of handling. Imidazol was identified as a substance that can

Laponite Network Controls FGF‐2 Release and Drives Functional Nerve Regeneration via 3D‐Printed Nerve Wrap Interfaces

Small Methods, EarlyView.
We developed a 3D‐printed nerve interface integrating a biomimetic nanocomposite hydrogel with sustained delivery of thermostable FGF‐2. The bioactive interface supports Schwann cell activity and myelination while providing a regenerative microenvironment.

S100B in schizophrenia: an update.

General physiology and biophysics, 2010
Recent research has supported a potential role of immune pathology in the etiopathogenesis of schizophrenic. In the CNS various viruses were identified in the brains of schizophrenic patients. Pro-inflammatory cytokines were found to be associated with the stage of disease.

Electrochemical aptasensors for ultrasensitive multiplexed detection: Towards a new era of precision diagnostics and environmental monitoring

VIEW, EarlyView.
Electrochemical aptasensors are emerging as powerful platforms for precision diagnostics and environmental monitoring, owing to their high selectivity, programmability and compatibility with miniaturised systems. However, their broader application is constrained by limited signal intensity and challenges in reliable multiplexed detection.

From patient to tumor organoid: Culture protocol choice controls glioblastoma tumor architecture and identity

Brain Pathology, EarlyView.
How glioblastoma organoids are made shapes what they become. Fragment‐based cultures preserve extracellular matrix networks, cellular diversity, and primary tumor identity, whereas dissociation‐based cultures shift toward growth‐adapted states and simplified microenvironments. Abstract Patient‐derived tumor organoids are widely used in cancer research,

Astrocytic connexin43 phosphorylation contributes to seizure susceptibility after mild traumatic brain injury

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Astrocytic gap junctions formed by connexin43 (Cx43) help maintain brain homeostasis. After mild traumatic brain injury (TBI), total cortical Cx43 increases and redistributes toward a soluble, non‐junctional pool with elevated hemichannel activity and increased phosphorylation at serine 368 (pCx43S368).

Serum S100B protein and white matter changes in schizophrenia before and after medication

Brain Research Bulletin
Schizophrenia patients have abnormalities in white matter (WM) integrity in brain regions. S100B has been shown to be a marker protein for glial cells. The atypical antipsychotics have neuroprotective effects on the brain.

Proposed schematics of S100B/RAGE and RAGE/S100B/bFGF/FGFR1 interactions in LD and HD myoblasts and of action of released S100B following skeletal muscle injury.

, 2012
(A) (Left) In LD myoblast cultures S100B tetramers/octamers promote RAGE oligomerization and/or stabilization of RAGE oligomers resulting in the simultaneous stimulation of proliferation and activation of the myogenic program; this occurs irrespective of

The ciliary neurotrophic factor induces Stat3 phosphorylation in distinctive cytotypes of organs involved in body metabolism: An immunohistochemical study

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
p‐STAT3‐positive cells in metabolically relevant peripheral organs and tissues from mice administered with recombinant CNTF (0.3 mg/kg). Abstract Administration of ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) reduces food intake and body weight in both humans and experimental animals, where it also ameliorates hyperglycemia, hyperinsulinemia, and dyslipidemia ...
