Somatic cell reprogramming for Parkinson's disease treatment

Ibrain, Volume 11, Issue 1, Page 59-73, Spring 2025.
The fundamental purpose of cell reprogramming to treat Parkinson's disease is to generate dopaminergic neurons (DAN) and do transplantation. There are two ways to accomplish this. One method is to induce cells into induced DA neurons (iDAN) directly or to induce cells into induced pluripotent stem cells and ultimately into iDAN in vitro. Another option

Valproic Acid Inhibits Ferroptosis and Improves Bone Integration in OVX Rats Through the AMPK/SIRT1 Pathway

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The prevalence of postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP) has been steadily increasing. Ferroptosis has been recognized as a critical factor influencing the bone‐forming ability of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs). Valproic acid (VPA), an HDAC inhibitor, has been suggested to play a role in regulating osteoporosis development; however ...

Decoding the relationship between oxidative stress and antiseizure medications using network pharmacology and molecular docking

Scientific Reports
Oxidative stress is known to be associated with epilepsy, and antiseizure medication treatment, albeit with limited consensus on the specific oxidative stress pathways/proteins involved. Identifying these can reveal novel therapeutic targets for epilepsy

The Spectrum of Abnormal Tongue Movements: Review of Phenomenology, Etiology, and Differential Diagnosis

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Classifying abnormal tongue movements is challenging due to their varied presentations and limited visibility compared to other body parts. Accurate identification of the phenomenology guides physical examination and can point to specific diagnoses.

Brain Pericytes and Wnt/β‐Catenin Signaling Induce Functional Blood–Brain Barrier Phenotype in Human iPSC‐Derived Model

Small Methods, EarlyView.
This study shows that human iPSC‐derived endothelial cells acquire a functional blood–brain barrier phenotype when co‐cultured with brain pericytes and stimulated with CHIR‐99021, a Wnt/β‐catenin activator. This model recapitulates key barrier properties, inflammatory responses, and transcriptomic features of the native human BBB, offering new ...

Intestinal Atresia in Finland: Maternal Risk Factors, Prevalence, Associated Anomalies and Survival

Acta Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim We aimed to investigate prevalence, associated anomalies and survival of congenital intestinal atresia and to examine maternal risk factors for jejunoileal atresia (JIA). Methods All children born with, or pregnancies terminated because of, JIA or colonic atresia (CA) in Finland during 1987–2019 were identified from the Finnish Register of

Red‐light flashing pens and seizures in children

Developmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
Guidelines exist to limit seizure‐provoking visual stimuli. However, existing recommendations are not universally applied, and poorly regulated flickering lights are easily encountered in consumer products. Two girls experienced prolonged absence seizures triggered by a red‐light flickering pen.

Intravenous immunoglobulin and febrile status epilepticus in children with Dravet syndrome: A retrospective multicentre study

Developmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
This multicenter retrospective study evaluated the use of intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) in 14 children with Dravet syndrome as a preventive strategy against febrile status epilepticus. Over a 6‐month period, IVIG was associated with a significant reduction in hospitalizations for febrile status epilepticus.
