Typhoid Toxin Causes Neuropathology by Disrupting the Blood-Brain Barrier
[Nature Microbiology] Utilizing mice engineered to have specific tissues protected from toxin action and an in vitro model of the blood–brain barrier (BBB), researchers demonstrated that, rather than direct action on neuronal or glial cells, typhoid toxin causes neuropathology by disrupting the BBB.

DDX24 Spatiotemporally Orchestrates VEGF and Wnt Signaling during Developmental Angiogenesis
[Proceedings of The National Academy of Sciences of The United States of America] Investigators demonstrated the pivotal role of DEAD-box RNA helicase 24 (DDX24) in the regulation of vascular development in the brain and trunk. Ddx24 deficiency in zebrafish results in ectopic vessel sprouting in the trunk but inhibits angiogenesis in the brain.

An Integrated Transcriptomic Cell Atlas of Human Endoderm-Derived Organoids
[Nature Genetics] Researchers integrated single-cell transcriptomes from 218 samples covering organoids and other models of diverse endoderm-derived tissues to establish an initial version of a human endoderm-derived organoid cell atlas.
Organoid Morphology-Guided Classification for Oral Cancer Reveals Prognosis
[Cell Reports Medicine] Scientists presented a pioneering approach to classifying oral cancer subtypes based on the morphology of patient-derived organoids and proposed a therapeutic strategy.
Immunotherapy-Related Cognitive Impairment after CAR T Cell Therapy in Mice
[Cell] Investigators demonstrated in mouse models that CAR T cell therapy for both central nervous system and non-CNS cancers impaire cognitive function and induced a persistent CNS immune response characterized by white matter microglial reactivity, microglial chemokine expression, and elevated cerebrospinal fluid cytokines and chemokines.
