The Dissemination of Rift Valley Fever Virus to the Eye and Sensory Neurons of Zebrafish Larvae Is Stat1-Dependent by Sebastiaan ter Horst, Aleksandra Siekierska, Ann-Sofie De Meulemeester, Arno Cuvry, Laura Cools, Johan Neyts, Peter de Witte, Joana Rocha-Pereira

“…The optical transparency of the larvae allowed detection of RVFV_eGFP in the liver and sensory nervous system, including the optic tectum and retina, but not the brain or spinal cord. Thus, RVFV-induced blindness likely occurs due to direct damage to the eye and peripheral neurons, rather than the brain. …”

Role of Ketamine in the Treatment of Psychiatric Disorders by Sahar Derakhshanian, Maxine Zhou, Alexander Rath, Rachel Barlow, Sarah Bertrand, Caroline DeGraw, Christopher Lee, Jamal Hasoon, Alan D. Kaye

“…The illness is complex and combines genetic, pathophysiologic, and environmental factors that combine to negatively affect neurotransmitter balance in the brain. Additional evidence suggests dysregulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary (HPA) axis, brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), vitamin D levels, and involvement of pro-inflammatory markers. …”
