Strategies to Improve Therapeutic Adherence in Polymedicated Patients over 65 Years: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
(MDPI, 2024-02-17)
Background: Part of the population over 65 years of age suffer from several pathologies and are therefore polymedicated. In this systematic review and metanalysis, we aimed to determine the efficacy of several strategies ...
PK/PD modeling and simulation of the in vitro activity of the combinations of isavuconazole with echinocandins against Candida auris
(Wiley, 2023-06)
In vitro combination of echinocandins and isavuconazole against the emerging species Candida auris is mainly synergistic. However, this combination has not been evaluated in clinical settings. A pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic ...
Automated procedure to detect subtle motor alterations in the balance beam test in a mouse model of early Parkinson’s disease
(Nature, 2024)
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the most common motor neurodegenerative disorder, characterised by aggregated α-synuclein (α-syn) constituting Lewy bodies. We aimed to investigate temporal changes in motor impairments in a PD ...
Alcohol triggers the accumulation of oxidatively damaged proteins in neuronal cells and tissues
(MDPI, 2024-05-08)
Alcohol is toxic to neurons and can trigger alcohol-related brain damage, neuronal loss, and cognitive decline. Neuronal cells may be vulnerable to alcohol toxicity and damage from oxidative stress after differentiation. ...
Extracellular vesicles released by hair follicle and adipose mesenchymal stromal cells induce comparable neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory effects in primary neuronal and microglial cultures
(Elsevier, 2023-10)
Background aims
Despite intensive research, to date, there is no effective treatment for neurodegenerative diseases. Among the different therapeutic approaches, recently, the use of extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived ...
Maternal Immune Activation Induces Cortical Catecholaminergic Hypofunction and Cognitive Impairments in Offspring
(Springer Nature, 2023)
Background
Impairment of specific cognitive domains in schizophrenia has been associated with prefrontal cortex (PFC) catecholaminergic deficits. Among other factors, prenatal exposure to infections represents an ...
Isolation and Differentiation of Neurons and Glial Cells from Olfactory Epithelium in Living Subjects
(Springer Nature, 2023)
The study of psychiatric and neurological diseases requires the substrate in which the disorders occur, that is, the nervous tissue. Currently, several types of human bio-specimens are being used for research, including ...
Determining the binding kinetics and signalling effects of CB1 and CB2 receptor ligands; a closer look at residence time and functional selectivity
(2022-05-30)
The CB1 and CB2 receptors are the main GPCRs of the endocannabinoid system, and regulate many important physiological processed as pain, inflammation, or behaviour. Increasing interest exist to develop new drugs targeting ...
Cannabinoid receptors in animal models of cognitive impairment.
(2024-03-15)
The endocannabinoid system (eCB) plays a crucial role in various physiological processes including fear responses, learning and memory. This system comprises cannabinoid receptors, endogenous ligands and enzymes, and its ...
