Cilia in Nervous System Development, Function, and Disease

open access: yesMedComm – Future Medicine, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
Cilia are evolutionarily conserved organelles that function as essential sensory and motility platforms in the nervous system. This review outlines key cilia‐dependent signaling pathways and their roles in neural development and function. Furthermore, it highlights how ciliary dysfunction can lead to a variety of neurological disorders, known as ...

How does type 2 diabetes modify the risk of Alzheimer's disease?

open access: yesAlzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Type 2 diabetes (T2D) and Alzheimer's disease (AD) are both increasing exponentially worldwide. T2D has also been identified as one of 14 modifiable risk factors for dementia, but the mechanism is unknown. T2D could promote dementia via vascular or AD neuropathological changes, and mechanistic hypotheses include central insulin resistance and ...

Methodological Challenges for Ablation of BMPR1A in Hypothalamic Tanycytes—A Cautionary Tale

open access: yesFASEB BioAdvances, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2026.
Two strategies were used to target BMPR1A in adult hypothalamic tanycytes: (1) inducible Rax‐CreERT2 and (2) AAV‐Dio2‐iCre–mediated recombination. Although robust expression of reporter fluorescence and recombination gel analysis confirmed Cre activity in both models, BMPR1A expression was not reduced in targeted tanycytes.

Review: “The Disappointment Dilemma: Short‐ and Long‐Term Learning From Negative Outcomes”

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Neuroscience, Volume 63, Issue 9, May 2026.
The habenula routes negative‐outcome signals to VTA, RMTg, and IPN to shape aversive learning and motivation. The lateral habenula encodes acute negative prediction errors to rapidly adapt behavior to threat, fear, and avoidance. The medial habenula integrates repeated stress, drug, and aversive experiences into long‐term negative mood and expectations.

Dynamic localization of glucokinase and its regulatory protein in hypothalamic tanycytes.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Glucokinase (GK), the hexokinase involved in glucose sensing in pancreatic β cells, is also expressed in hypothalamic tanycytes, which cover the ventricular walls of the basal hypothalamus and are implicated in an indirect control of neuronal activity by

Targeting Multiple Gut‐Brain Pathways in Obesity: Rationale for Combination Pharmacotherapy

open access: yesObesity Science &Practice, Volume 12, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background As a disease of energy dysregulation, obesity involves metabolic, hormonal, and neural factors, the interconnection of which is referred to as the “gut‐brain axis.” Objective This review aimed to provide an overview of the clinical evidence of physiological and objective or subjective changes in eating behavior with gut hormone ...

Tanybase - Combined and Curated Tanycyte Database

open access: yes
Tanycytes are ependymal-like glial cells that play a crucial role in regulating the neuroendocrine system, metabolism, and glucose homeostasis. Tanycytes lie in the wall of the third ventricle and coordinate various functions.

A simple strategy for culturing morphologically-conserved rat hypothalamic tanycytes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Hypothalamic tanycytes are specialized bipolar ependymal cells that line the floor of the third ventricle. Given their strategic location, tanycytes are believed to play several key functions including being a selective barrier and controlling the amount

Signal Amplification in the HPT Axis—Evidence for Its Existence, Location, Significance, and Molecular Mechanisms

open access: yesActa Physiologica, Volume 242, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Thyroid hormones (THs) are under negative feedback regulation via the hypothalamic–pituitary‐thyroid (HPT) axis. How this axis operates to keep the circulating THs within a narrow physiological range is not well understood quantitatively. Led by the design principle of robust homeostatic feedback control, here we review and synthesize the ...

Comparative Single‐Cell Transcriptomic Atlas Reveals the Genetic Regulation of Reproductive Traits

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 17, 23 March 2026.
A cross‐species single‐cell transcriptomic atlas of reproductive and central nervous system tissues from sheep and humans reveals conserved cellular programs and regulatory networks that regulated fertility. Integration with GWAS for sheep lifetime average litter size identifies UNC5–SLIT–BMP signaling as a core pathway coordinating neuroendocrine ...
