Trophic and neurotrophic factors in human pituitary adenomas (Review) [PDF]
The pituitary gland is an organ that functionally connects the hypothalamus with the peripheral organs. The pituitary gland is an important regulator of body homeostasis during development, stress, and other processes.

TrkB-enhancer facilitates functional recovery after traumatic brain injury
Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), a key player in regulating synaptic strength and learning, is dysregulated following traumatic brain injury (TBI), suggesting that stimulation of BDNF signaling pathways may facilitate functional recovery.

Precision medicine becomes reality—tumor type-agnostic therapy
Precision medicine just witnessed two breakthroughs in oncology in 2017. Pembrolizumab (Keytruda), Merck’s anti-programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) monoclonal antibody (mAb), received accelerated approval in May 2017 by the US Food and Drug Administration for

Modeling Suggests Combined-Drug Treatments for Disorders Impairing Synaptic Plasticity via Shared Signaling Pathways [PDF]
Genetic disorders such as Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome (RTS) and Coffin-Lowry syndrome (CLS) cause lifelong cognitive disability, including deficits in learning and memory. Can pharmacological therapies be suggested to improve learning and memory in these disorders?

Dominant role of GABAB2 and Gbetagamma for GABAB receptor-mediated-ERK1/2/CREB pathway in cerebellar neurons [PDF]
gamma-aminobutyric acid type B (GABA(B)) receptor is an allosteric complex made of two subunits, GABA(B1) and GABA(B2). GABA(B2) plays a major role in the coupling to G protein whereas GABA(B1) binds GABA. It has been shown that GABA(B) receptor activates ERK(1/2) in neurons of the central nervous system, but the molecular mechanisms underlying this ...

Vessel‐On‐A‐Chip Coupled Proteomics Reveal Pressure‐Overload‐Induced Vascular Remodeling
A vessel‐on‐a‐chip system is developed to replicate both physiological and pathological vessel cyclic stretches. Proteomic analysis reveals pressure‐overload‐induced vascular remodeling, including cellular response to mechanical cues, cellular oxidative stresses, ER stress, and ceramide biosynthesis activation in the vessel‐on‐a‐chip system, well ...
