This study examines the CSF virome in people with HIV, finding associations between viral composition and neuroinflammation, cognition, and depressive symptoms.

This study examines 15q11.2 deletion effects on neuronal development and function using iPSC-derived neurons, finding structural and functional impairments in network connectivity and maturation.

The paper analyzes phase-amplitude coupling in human 2D neural cultures to show that network-level interactions, not single neurons, drive coupling, suggesting PAC is a fundamental property of neural networks.

This study shows that Cx43 hemichannels in astrocytes contribute to ALS progression and that blocking them can protect neurons and improve survival in ALS models.

This study investigates the effects of PCYT1A variants on lipid metabolism, chondrocyte differentiation, and lipid droplet formation using cellular models and lipidomics.

This paper develops a co-culture method for human iPSC-derived astrocytes and motor neurons in MEA systems, showing bidirectional maturation effects.

This study shows that MCT1 in Schwann cells is essential for maintaining sensory nerve myelination during aging, leading to hypomyelination and impaired function.
