Developing a hippocampal neural prosthetic to facilitate human memory encoding and recall of stimulus features and categories

ObjectiveHere, we demonstrate the first successful use of static neural stimulation patterns for specific information content. These static patterns were derived by a model that was applied to a subject’s own hippocampal spatiotemporal neural codes for memory.ApproachWe constructed a new model of processes by which the hippocampus encodes specific memory items via spatiotemporal firing of […]

Emerging role of mesenchymal stem cells-derived extracellular vesicles in vascular dementia

Vascular dementia (VD) is a prevalent cognitive disorder among the elderly. Its pathological mechanism encompasses neuronal damage, synaptic dysfunction, vascular abnormalities, neuroinflammation, and oxidative stress, among others. In recent years, extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have garnered significant attention as an emerging therapeutic strategy. Current research indicates that MSC-derived extracellular vesicles […]

Potential mechanisms of exercise for relieving inflammatory pain: a literature review of animal studies

Inflammatory pain (IP) is one of the most prevalent and intractable human conditions, and it leads to progressive dysfunction and reduced quality of life. Additionally, IP is incredibly challenging to treat successfully with drugs or surgery. The development of IP is complex and multifactorial, and peripheral and central sensitization may influence chronicity and treatment resistance […]
