The oncogene Aurora kinase A (AURKA) has been implicated in various tumor, yet its role in meningioma remains unexplored. Recent studies have suggested a potential link between AURKA and ferroptosis, although the underlying mechanisms are unclear. This study presented evidence of AURKA upregulation in high grade meningioma and its ability to enhance malignant characteristics.

The aim of this study was to elucidate the potential role of Melanophilin (MLPH) O-GlcNAcylation and the specific mechanism through which it regulates GBM radiotherapy resistance. We found that MLPH was significantly upregulated in recurrent GBM tumor tissues after ionizing radiation (IR).

Small-vessel disease of the brain has been reported to contribute to neurodegenerative diseases. In this study, we observed BBB disruption in wild-type (WT) mice, but not in matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9) knockout mice, subjected to single severe traumatic brain injury (ssTBI).
