Objective: To explore the effects of inhibition of PI3K/Akt/mTOR signal pathway on chronic neuropathic pain (CNP) and spinal microglia in a rat model of chronic constriction injury (CCI).

Summary: Inhibition of PI3K/Akt/mTOR signal pathway may alleviate CNP and reduce microglia and GFAP and NGF expressions in marrow in a rat model of CCI.

Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 114(18):E3709-E3718. doi: 10.1073/pnas.1619406114 PMID: 28420791

Objective: To identify adult enteric neural precursor cell (ENPC) that would enable a new understanding of the pathogenesis of enteric neuromuscular diseases as well as the development of novel regenerative therapies.

Summary: The results show significant turnover and neurogenesis of adult enteric neurons and provide a paradigm for understanding the enteric nervous system in health and disease.

Summary: The authors used a mouse model of neurotoxic motoneuron depletion to study the role of Sonic hedgehog and TDP-43 in the compensatory changes occurring after the lesion. The injection of cholera toxin-B saporin (CTB-SAP; Cat. #IT-14) into the gastrocnemius muscle caused a partial motoneuron death accompanied by an impairment of locomotion.  Motor activity was significantly restored as soon as one month later.

Objective: To evaluate the effect of extensive water-soluble chitosan (EWSC) in Allergic rhinitis (AR).

Summary: The results suggest that NGF- and TH2-related cytokines created a positive feedback loop amplifying allergic inflammation in the upper-airway epithelial cells, and EWSC attenuated allergic inflammation and epithelial cell damage, by inhibiting NGF biosynthesis during allergic TH2 immune responses.

Oncogene 36(31):4508-4515. doi: 10.1038/onc.2017.53 PMID: 28368402

Objective: To investigate whether Sox2 is required during the process of melanomagenesis, melanoma growth and metastasis and in the acquisition of resistance to BRAF inhibitors (BRAFi) treatments.

Summary: The findings exclude an oncogenic function for Sox2 during melanoma development and do not support a role for this transcription factor in the acquisition of resistance to BRAFi treatments.

Usage: Immunofluorescence on melanoma cell lines
