The compound (E)-2-(3,4-dihydroxystyryl)-3-hydroxy-4H-pyran-4-one alleviates neuroinflammation and cognitive impairment in a mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease by Xueyan Liu, Wei Wu, Xuejuan Li, Chengyan Wang, Ke Chai, Fanru Yuan, Huijuan Zheng, Yuxing Yao, Chenlu Li, Zu-Cheng Ye, Daijun Zha

“…Notably, we demonstrated that exogenous fibrillar amyloid-β introduced by intracerebroventricular injection greatly increased galectin-3 expression levels in the brain, and this increase was blocked by D30. Considering the role of D30 in clearing amyloid-β, inhibiting neuroinflammation, protecting synapses, and improving cognition, this study highlights the potential of galectin-3 as a promising treatment target for patients with Alzheimer’s disease.…”

Electroencephalography Signal Grouping and Feature Classification Using Harmony Search for BCI by Tae-Ju Lee, Seung-Min Park, Kwee-Bo Sim

“…This paper presents a heuristic method for electroencephalography (EEG) grouping and feature classification using harmony search (HS) for improving the accuracy of the brain-computer interface (BCI) system. EEG, a noninvasive BCI method, uses many electrodes on the scalp, and a large number of electrodes make the resulting analysis difficult. …”

Multimodal Imaging of Neural Progenitor Cell Fate in Rodents by Yannic Waerzeggers, Markus Klein, Hrvoje Miletic, Uwe Himmelreich, Hongfeng Li, Parisa Monfared, Ulrich Herrlinger, Mathias Hoehn, Heinrich Hubert Coenen, Michael Weller, Alexandra Winkeler, Andreas Hans Jacobs

“…We show that both imaging modalities are sensitive in detecting reporter gene expressing NPCs; however, PET, by the use of 9-[4-[ 18 F]fluoro-3-hydroxymethyl)butyl]guanine ([ 18 F]FHBG), detects NPCs only at sites of disrupted blood-brain barrier. Furthermore, both imaging modalities can be used to detect stem cell fate and migration and indicate excessive proliferation and aberrant migration. …”
