Background Introduction In contemporary neuroscience research, dopamine and serotonin are hypothesized to be crucial neuromodulators guiding social behavior. However, there is a significant lack of understanding regarding the dynamic changes of these neuromodulators during social interactions. Although non-invasive functional neuroimaging methods (...
Background Introduction Cancer of Unknown Primary (CUP) is a type of malignant disease that is confirmed to be metastatic through histopathology but whose primary site cannot be identified using conventional baseline diagnostic methods. CUP presents significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges in clinical practice and is believed to account fo...
Predictive Autoantibody Signature for Multiple Sclerosis Academic Background and Research Significance Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease that primarily affects the white matter of the central nervous system (CNS). Previous studies have mostly suggested that T cells play a major role in the pathogenesis of MS. Howe...
The Effectiveness of Bivalent CAR T-Cell Therapy Targeting EGFR and IL13Rα2 in Treating Recurrent Glioblastoma In recent years, the treatment of recurrent glioblastoma (RGBM) has been continually explored and improved, yet overall survival rates remain less than one year, presenting a significant challenge. The limitations of existing treatments an...
Abstract In recent years, researchers have gradually recognized that contextual awareness and goal-directed responses to emotional events are crucial for adaptive functioning. Behavioral and emotional regulation models posit that the lateral prefrontal cortex (lpfc) maintains goal-related representations, thereby facilitating cognitive control. How...
Spatial Enrichment and Genomic Analysis Reveal Association between NOMO1 and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Introduction Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a severe neurodegenerative disease in which motor neurons in the brain and spinal cord gradually degrade. Although the genetic susceptibility of sporadic ALS patients remains uncertain, TDP-4...
NMDA Receptor Autoantibodies Mainly Damage Extrasynaptic Components Background Information In recent years, neuroimmunology research has revealed various neurological and psychiatric diseases associated with autoantibodies. In these disorders, autoantibodies target various molecules, including receptor membrane proteins, causing abnormal neural sys...
Low-intensity Ultrasound Promotes Brain Organoid Integration and Improves Microcephaly Defects Background of the Study Brain organoids are generated through the differentiation of pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) and exhibit impressive cellular diversity, capable of mimicking functional networks similar to the human brain. These organoid methods hold ...
Using Intracranial EEG-fMRI Mapping of Intermittent Discharges to Predict Epilepsy Surgery Outcomes Background and Objective Epilepsy is a common neurological disorder, and many patients are unresponsive to pharmacological treatments, making surgery one of the primary therapeutic options. However, accurately localizing the seizure onset zone (SOZ) ...
Research Background The core focus of this study is the manifestation of gray matter atrophy in neuroinflammatory diseases. Gray matter atrophy typically appears in four types of neuroinflammatory demyelinating diseases: Multiple Sclerosis (MS), Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorders (NMOSD) positive (AQP4+) and negative (AQP4-) for aquaporin-4 an...
