A cloaked human stem-cell-derived neural graft capable of functional integration and immune evasion in rodent models
Human pluripotent stem cell (hPSC)-derived therapies are a realistic possibility for numerous disorders, including Parkinson's disease. While generating replacement neurons is achievable, immunosuppressive drug challenges, to prevent rejection, remain. Here we adopted a hPSC line (termed H1-FS-8IM), engineered to overexpress 8 immunomodulatory transgenes, to enable transplant immune evasion. In co-cultures, H1-FS-8IM PSC-derived midbrain neurons evaded rejection by T lymphocytes, natural killer...
Subthalamic nucleus dynamics during executive functioning: Insights from local field potentials in Parkinson's disease
This study explores the involvement of the subthalamic nucleus (STN) in executive functions, particularly cognitive flexibility, in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients. Utilizing a computerized Wisconsin Card Sorting Task (WCST) and local field potential (LFP) recordings from implanted deep brain stimulation (DBS) electrodes, we investigated task-specific neural dynamics. Behavioural results demonstrated increased error rates and prolonged response times in trials requiring set-shifting and rule...
