Article Synopsis
- * A search of electronic databases revealed only three relevant studies from Australia and Denmark, showcasing different approaches like midwifery education, culturally adapted classes, and video content translated into multiple languages.
- * The results of the studies varied, with only one out of two assessing effectiveness showing a positive impact on health literacy, indicating a significant gap in existing interventions and the importance of further research in this area.
How our brains are built: emerging approaches to understand human-specific features.
Curr Opin Genet Dev
December 2024
Article Synopsis
- Exploring what makes us distinct as humans involves various scientific fields, including genomics and neuroscience.
- Recent findings of unique human genomic sequences are paving the way for a deeper understanding of how our brains evolved and function at the molecular level.
- The review highlights both the progress made through new technologies and the ongoing challenges in understanding these uniquely human sequences and their role in brain development.
Brain metastasis, a serious complication of cancer, hinges on the initial survival, microenvironment adaptation, and outgrowth of disseminated cancer cells. To understand the early stages of brain colonization, we investigated two prevalent sources of cerebral relapse, triple-negative (TNBC) and HER2+ (HER2BC) breast cancers. Using mouse models and human tissue samples, we found that these tumor types colonize the brain, with a preference for distinctive tumor architectures, stromal interfaces, and autocrine programs.
