Towards Identifying a Molecular Activator of Spreading Depolarization Generated by the Ischemic Brain

Chloe A. Lowry, Julia A. Hellas, Nikita Ollen‐Bittle…·R. David Andrew

This study identifies a compound released by ischemic brain tissue that promotes spreading depolarization and shows it synergizes with NKA inhibition to cause RBC hemolysis.

Characterizing a hallmark of glymphatic insufficiency: Wasteosomes accumulate in periventricular white matter hyperintensities and exhibit complex relationships with mixed pathology, sclerotic index and perivascular space

Nikita Ollen‐Bittle, Isabella Boesgaard, Austyn D. Roseborough…·Shawn Narain Whitehead

The paper examines wasteosome accumulation in periventricular white matter hyperintensities and links it to vascular and pathological features in a mixed diagnostic cohort.
