|
| Scientists reported induced neural stem cell reprogramming from embryonic and aged mouse fibroblasts as well as from human blood using an engineered Sox17. [Science Advances] |

|
|
| Investigators reported that lytic herpes simplex virus type 2 infection of human neuron-like SH-SY5Y cells and primary human and murine brain cells leads to cell death mediated by gasdermin E (GSDME). [EMBO Journal] |
|
|
|
| Researchers found that EGFRx, a novel EGFR variant, played essential roles in the maintenance of the glioblastoma (GBM) stem cell phenotype through constitutive activation of STAT5 and promoted GBM progression. [Neuro-Oncology] |
|
|
|
| Scientists studied whether triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cell 2 (TREM2) influenced glioma progression. They found a gender-dependent effect of glioma growth in wild-type animals injected with GL261-EGFP glioma cells. [Glia] |

|
|
| Using in vitro and in vivo neurotrauma model systems based on laser transection and surgical nerve cut, investigators demonstrated that axotomy triggered actomyosin contraction coupled with calpain activity. [iScience] |
|
|
|
| The authors determined the role of miR-153-3p expression in neural stem cell (NSC) differentiation and proliferation. They illustrated that miR-153-3p was decreased and GPR55 was upregulated during NSC differentiation. [Aging] |
|
|
|
| Researchers designed a microarray experiment aimed at identifying the molecular mechanisms involved in the distinctive effect of HeberFERON compared to the individual interferons in U-87MG model. [BMC Cancer] |
|
|
|
| The authors explored the role of norepinephrine in neuronal apoptosis and its association with metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1 (MALAT1). [Stress-The International Journal On The Biology Of Stress] |

|
|
| Scientists construct current knowledge of microglia-astrocyte communication, highlighting the multifaceted functions of microglia and astrocytes and their role in Alzheimer’s disease. [Journal Of Alzheimers Disease] |

|
| University of California, Irvine (UCI) has been awarded a five-year, $3.5 million grant from the National Institute of Mental Health to study the sex-specific differences in circuits that connect the brain’s stress and reward centers. [UCI Health] |

|
|
| Dr. Abdelhalim Loukil and his lab of researchers at Sanford Research have recently received a $2 million grant from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences. [Sanford Health] |
