α‐Synuclein strain homogeneity in multiple system atrophy subtypes

Brain Pathology, EarlyView.
Two different subtypes of multiple system atrophy are recognized: MSA‐C and MSA‐P. In this manuscript, Lau et al. investigate whether MSA‐C and MSA‐P are caused by different strains of α‐synuclein aggregates. By performing conformational fingerprinting experiments as well as in vitro and in vivo seeding assays, their findings suggest that both MSA‐C ...

Cholinergic inputs to motoneurons in the spinal cord augment focal muscle spasticity in rodents

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Cholinergic premotor inputs to motoneurons support high levels of motor output when required. However, the possible role of these inputs in pathologically elevated muscle tone has not been characterised. To address this, we examined the modulatory effect of spinal acetylcholine (ACh) on experimental spastic paralysis ...

Intratumoral Administration of Recombinant Murine Interleukin‐12 Prevents Tumor Progression and Bone Invasion

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) frequently invades the mandibular bone, leading to metastasis and poor prognosis. This study aimed to evaluate the therapeutic effects of locally administered interleukin‐12 (IL‐12) using an immunocompetent mouse model mimicking the clinical features of mandibular bone invasion. Methods The effects
