The Desmosomal Plaque Proteins of the Plakophilin Family by Steffen Neuber, Mario Mühmer, Denise Wratten, Peter J. Koch, Roland Moll, Ansgar Schmidt

“…Three related proteins of the plakophilin family (PKP1_3) have been identified as junctional proteins that are essential for the formation and stabilization of desmosomal cell contacts. Failure of PKP expression can have fatal effects on desmosomal adhesion, leading to abnormal tissue and organ development. …”

Early life stress and altered social behaviors: A perspective across species by Lyonna F. Parise, C. Joseph Burnett, Scott J. Russo

“…Animal models have been integral in identifying both the short- and long-term consequences of stress exposure and suggest that whether it is disruption to parental care or social isolation, chronic exposure to early life stress increases corticosterone, changes the expression of neurotransmitters and neuromodulators, and facilitates structural alterations to the hypothalamus, hippocampus, and amygdala, influencing how these brain regions communicate with other reward-related substrates. …”

Role of Endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase in Diabetic Nephropathy: Lessons from Diabetic eNOS Knockout Mice by Takamune Takahashi, Raymond C. Harris

“…Based on the clinical evidence showing the association of eNOS dysfunction with advanced DN, we and others have created diabetic mice that lack eNOS expression and shown that eNOS-deficient diabetic mice exhibit advanced nephropathic changes with distinct features of progressive DN, including pronounced albuminuria, nodular glomerulosclerosis, mesangiolysis, and arteriolar hyalinosis. …”

Regulatory Role of CD4+ T Cells in Myocarditis by Daria Vdovenko, Urs Eriksson

“…These subsets include Th1 and Th17 effector cells and regulatory T cells, despite the fact that there are still sparse and controversial data on the specific role of FOXP3-expressing Treg in myocarditis. Understanding the specific roles of these T cell populations at different stages of the disease progression might provide a key for the development of successful therapeutic strategies.…”

Disruption of the Serotonergic System after Neonatal Hypoxia-Ischemia in a Rodent Model by Kathryn M. Buller, Julie A. Wixey, Hanna E. Reinebrant

“…One week after postnatal day 3 hypoxia-ischemia, losses of serotonergic raphé neurons, reductions in serotonin levels in the brain, and reduced serotonin transporter expression are evident. These changes can be prevented using two anti-inflammatory interventions; the postinsult administration of minocycline or ibuprofen. …”
