AAV-aMTD-Parkin, a therapeutic gene delivery cargo, enhances motor and cognitive functions in Parkinson's and Alzheimer’s diseases

Elsevier,

Pharmacological Research, Volume 208, October 2024, 107326

The article presents the development of a novel fusion delivery platform called AAV-aMTD-Parkin, which combines a hydrophobic cell-penetrating peptide sequence with the DNA sequences of AAV and Parkin. This innovative approach has demonstrated significant improvements in cell and tissue permeability, leading to the restoration of motor and cognitive function in animal models of Parkinson's disease (PD) and Alzheimer's disease (AD).

Negative impacts of social isolation on behavior and neuronal functions are recovered after short-term social reintroduction in zebrafish

Elsevier,

Progress in Neuro-Psychopharmacology and Biological Psychiatry, Volume 134, 30 August 2024
This study evaluated the behavioral, physiological, and molecular effects of social isolation (SI) in adult zebrafish, and whether the animals recover such changes after their reintroduction to the social environment. The results show that SI altered social behaviors, neural activity, and serotonergic and dopaminergic signaling in zebrafish, but these changes were reversed after the animals were reintroduced to a social context for 6 days.
