This study found that the transcription factor Meis2 regulates the maturation and innervation of sensory neurons in mice, affecting their response to light touch.
January 2024 in “International journal of molecular sciences” This study found that boosting the synthesis of neural-derived 17β-estradiol effectively counteracted the impairment of hippocampal long-term potentiation caused by amyloid beta 1-42 in rat hippocampal slices, with the effect seemingly linked to glutamate NMDAR signaling.
October 2021 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” In this research, investigators used in vitro models to study the Merkel cell-neurite complex and reported that mechanical stimulation, similar to gentle touch, can induce molecular changes that are potentially relevant to hair growth, thus contributing to the understanding of its underlying mechanisms.
April 2019 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study identifies a mechanism where dsRNA activates TLR3 to induce RA production, promoting hair follicle regeneration in mice and suggesting a potential role in human tissue regeneration.

,
November 2017 in “Neurotoxicity research/Neurotoxicity resarch” This study found that sodium metabisulfite activates sodium channels and increases cellular excitability and excitotoxicity in both cardiomyocyte and neuron models, which exacerbates seizures and neuronal damage in rats.
80 citations
,
December 1996 in “Pain” This study found that spinal strychnine enhances low threshold tactile responses in cat dorsal horn neurons, which may mirror pain states in humans that are less responsive to opioid treatments.
January 2016 in “Zurich Open Repository and Archive (University of Zurich)” This study concludes that dietary L-serine supplementation shows promise as a long-term therapy for hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy type 1, reducing neurotoxic 1-deoxysphingolipid levels and improving symptoms in severe cases.

April 2017 in “F1000Research” This study found that diazepam had an exaggerated effect on GABA-related inhibitory tone in diabetic neuropathic mice compared to normal mice, potentially due to mitochondrial dysfunction affecting neurosteroid synthesis.
6 citations
,
February 2022 in “The journal of neuroscience/The Journal of neuroscience” This study observed that deleting PTEN in mouse facial motoneurons enhanced peripheral axon regeneration but also led to physiological changes and potential hyperplasia in older mice.
April 2007 in “CRC Press eBooks” This article discusses various vitamin deficiencies and their neurological implications without providing new clinical results; it serves as an informative chapter on nutrient-related neurological conditions.
9 citations
,
March 1968 in “The BMJ” In their 1957 study, Neuman and Neuman suggested that magnesium deficiency may inhibit the ion exchange process required for calcium ions to enter extracellular fluid, potentially affecting calcium mobilization.
June 2020 in “Faculty Opinions – Post-Publication Peer Review of the Biomedical Literature” This study found a specific T cell receptor that may be key in carbamazepine-induced Stevens-Johnson syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis, suggesting potential therapeutic targets.

February 2017 in “Journal of neuroscience research” This study suggests that extrasynaptic δGABA-A receptors may have a protective role in modulating the severity of catamenial-like seizures by influencing neurosteroid and benzodiazepine responses in mice.
June 2025 in “Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences” In this study, a mouse model with a PIK3CA gain-of-function mutation in Schwann cells revealed unique communication with neighboring cells and a glycolytic shift in peripheral nerves, and early alpelisib treatment significantly improved symptoms, though efficacy declined with delayed administration due to limited drug penetration.
April 2026 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)” This study found that distinct neurons in the nucleus accumbens lateral shell regulate scratching behavior differently; D1R neurons promote scratching while D2R neurons help stop it, with elevated dopamine levels during chronic itch potentially enhancing persistent scratching.
