The chemical rules governing protein folding have intrigued generations of researchers for decades. With the advent of artificial intelligence (AI), prediction of protein structure has improved tremendously. [...]

A 6-year-old female spayed Podenco-crossbreed dog was presented with an unusual type of focal impaired awareness seizures, including sensory ataxia and postictal rest. Magnetic resonance imaging examination revealed pre- and post-contrast agent T1-weighted bilateral symmetric hyperintensities in the lentiform nuclei and globus pallidus. [...]

Evolutionary innovations can be driven by changes in the rates of RNA translation and the emergence of new genes and small open reading frames (sORFs). In this study, we characterized the transcriptional and translational landscape of the hearts of four primate and two rodent species through integrative ribosome and transcriptomic profiling, including adult left ventricle tissues and induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocyte cell cultures. [...]

Background/Objectives: Intracranial aneurysms (IAs) may be connected to interactions between large and small intracranial vessels. We aimed to investigate the association between IAs and cerebral small-vessel disease (CSVD) and assess CSVD impact on IA patient management. [...]

Current therapy strategies still provide only limited success in the treatment of glioblastoma, the most frequent primary brain tumor in adults. In addition to the characterization of the tumor microenvironment, global changes in the brain of patients with glioblastoma have been described. [...]

This study evaluates the efficacy of [131I]I-ERIC1 in targeting and inhibiting the growth of SCLC tumors in mice, focusing on tumor accumulation and regression and potential side effects. NCAM-positive NCI-H69 SCLC cells were implanted in CB 17 SCID mice, and [131I]I-ERIC1 biokinetics were measured in organs and tissues at four post-injection time points (24, 72, 96, and 120 h). [...]

During mammalian aging, senescent cells accumulate in the body. Recent evidence suggests that senescent cells potentially contribute to age-related neurodegenerative diseases in the central nervous system (CNS), including tauopathies such as Alzheimer's disease (AD). [...]

Neuropathologic studies of brains from autopsy series show tau inclusions (pretangles, neuropils threads, neurofibrillary tangles) are detectable more than a decade before amyloid-β (Aβ) deposition in Alzheimer's disease (AD) and develop in a characteristic manner that forms the basis for AD staging. An alternative position views pathological tau without Aβ deposition as a 'primary age-related tauopathy' (PART) rather than prodromal AD. [...]
