This study identifies USP7 as a gene that restricts neurotropic orthoflavivirus entry by controlling endosomal dynamics, with mutations in USP7 increasing susceptibility to ZIKV infection.

This paper shows that macroscopic and radiological perfusion metrics do not reliably predict ultrastructural preservation in brain tissue after hyperosmotic perfusion.

This paper presents a protocol for preserving fixed whole brains using aldehyde-based cryopreservation, showing preserved cellular architecture after long-term storage.

The paper evaluates ultrastructural preservation quality in postmortem brain tissue using EM and light microscopy to identify artifacts and assess their impact on research applications.

The paper identifies transcriptomic changes in monocytes from GBA mutation carriers with Parkinson's disease, highlighting dysregulated pathways related to alpha-synuclein degradation and lysosomal function.
