Congenital midline nasal masses are rare anomalies of which nasal glial heterotopia represents an even rarer subset. We report a case of a 25-day-old male child with nasal glial heterotopia along with cleft palate suggesting embryonic fusion anomaly which was treated with excision and primary closure for nasal mass followed by palatal repair at later date.

Myopic eye growth induces mechanical stretch, which can lead to structural and functional retinal alterations. Here, we investigated the effect of lens-induced myopic growth on the distribution of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs), glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) expression and intensity, and peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (ppRNFL) thickness in common marmosets () induced with myopia continuously for six months, using immunohistochemistry and spectral-domain optical coherence tomography. We also explored the relationship between cellular structural parameters and the photopic negative response (PhNR) using full-field electroretinography.

Purpose: Autologous retinal transplantation has been successfully employed in the treatment of large and myopic macular holes that are refractory to standard surgical treatments. Patients transplanted with a peripheral neurosensory retinal graft have shown unexpected improvements in visual acuity. The study aims to investigate if neural integration of the graft takes place in a porcine model of retinal hole.

Background: Preterm white matter injury (PWMI) is the most common type of brain injury in preterm infants, in which, oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPCs) are predominantly damaged. In this study, human OPCs (hOPCs) were administered to a fetal goat model of PWMI to examine the differentiation potential and therapeutic effects of the cells on PWMI.
Methods: Preterm goat fetuses were subjected to hypoxic-ischemia (HI) via intermittent umbilical cord occlusion (5 min × 5).

Article Synopsis
- HSV-1 primarily infects the oral and nasal areas before establishing latency in the trigeminal ganglion and can also infect the central nervous system (CNS) via specific pathways.
- Recent studies have highlighted the lack of detailed knowledge about which brain regions are affected during HSV-1 infections and how microglial responses differ across these regions.
- This study on a mouse model revealed a two-step spread of HSV-1 from the olfactory epithelium to select brain regions, along with varying activation levels of microglia, contributing to understanding HSV-1's role in neurological diseases.

Smell and taste are extensively studied in fish species as essential for finding food and selecting mates while avoiding toxic substances and predators. Depending on the evolutionary position and adaptation, a discrete variation in the morphology of these sense organs has been reported in numerous teleost species. Here, for the first time, we approach the phenotypic characterization of the olfactory epithelium and taste buds in the African turquoise killifish (Nothobranchius furzeri), a model organism known for its short lifespan and use in ageing research.
