1. Cellular Origin and Development of Glioma
Abstract : Gliomas are the most common primary tumors of the central nervous system believed to arise from glial cells. Invasive growth and inherent propensity for malignant progression make gliomas incurable despite extensive treatment. READ MORE

2. Oligodendrocyte pathology following Traumatic Brain Injury : Experimental and clinical studies
Abstract : Traumatic brain injury (TBI) caused by traffic and fall accidents, sports-related injuries and violence commonly results in life-changing disabilities. Cognitive impairments following TBI may be due to disruption of axons, stretched by the acceleration/deceleration forces of the initial impact, and their surrounding myelin in neuronal networks.

3. Opioids regulate proliferation of neural progenitors. A study on the effects of opioids on adult rat hippocampal progenitors in vitro and in vivo
Abstract : The opioid receptors were among the first pharmacologically described brain receptors. These opioid receptors have thereafter been shown to mediate effects on proliferation and differentiation in both the embryonal and adult central nervous system. READ MORE

4. Cell states along oligodendrocyte development and disease
Abstract : The brain, one of the most complex organs in the body, where an immense diversity of cell states emerges from simple structure, where function arises from sets of regulatory principles and pattern persist where individual cells do not. Revealing the regulatory underpinnings of the brain, from unspecified cell states to diversity, is paramount for achieving a thorough understanding of the development process and generating insight into the disease states of the brain.

5. Neural stem cell therapy and inflammation status of post-traumatic syringomyelia
Abstract : Post-traumatic syringomyelia (PTS) is a severe complication of chronic spinal cord injury (SCI) with intraspinal expanding cysts as the major pathology. PTS occurs in up to 30 % of SCI patients, and time of diagnosis is usually years after the primary injury. READ MORE
