Identification of a Therapeutic Window for Neurovascular Unit Repair after Experimental Spinal Cord Injury.

J Neurotrauma

November 2024

Department of Neurosurgery, Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin, corporate member of Freie Universität Berlin, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, and Berlin Institute of Health, Berlin, Germany.

Traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI) is a devastating condition for which effective neuroregenerative and neuroreparative strategies are lacking. The post-traumatic disruption of the blood-spinal cord barrier (BSCB) as part of the neurovascular unit (NVU) is one major factor in the complex pathophysiology of SCI, which is associated with edema, inflammation, and cell death in the penumbra regions of the spinal cord adjacent to the lesion epicenter. Thus, the preservation of an intact NVU and vascular integrity to facilitate the regenerative capacity following SCI is a desirable therapeutic target.

Article Synopsis
  • Scientists studied how sleep is regulated in male mice, especially after staying awake for a long time.
  • They found that a special protein called CaMKII helps control certain brain cells (called PV neurons) that are important for sleep.
  • When these PV neurons become more active, it leads to more rebound sleep, which happens after being awake for too long.

On inductive biases for the robust and interpretable prediction of drug concentrations using deep compartment models.

J Pharmacokinet Pharmacodyn

August 2024

Department of Clinical Pharmacology, Hospital Pharmacy, Amsterdam UMC, University of Amsterdam, Amsterdam, The Netherlands.

Conventional pharmacokinetic (PK) models contain several useful inductive biases guiding model convergence to more realistic predictions of drug concentrations. Implementing similar biases in standard neural networks can be challenging, but might be fundamental for model robustness and predictive performance. In this study, we build on the deep compartment model (DCM) architecture by introducing constraints that guide the model to explore more physiologically realistic solutions.
