Background: Corticosteroid receptors, including mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) and glucocorticoid receptor (GR), play important roles in inflammatory pain in the dorsal root ganglion (DRG). Although it is widely known that activating the GR reduces inflammatory pain, it has recently been shown that MR activation contributes to pain and neuronal excitability in rodent studies. Moreover, little is known about the translation of this work to humans, or the mechanisms through which corticosteroid receptors regulate inflammatory pain.

Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and tropomyosin receptor kinase B (TrkB) are known to contribute to both protective and pronociceptive processes. However, their contribution to neuropathic pain after spinal cord injury (SCI) needs further investigation. In a recent study utilizing TrkB mice, it was shown that systemic pharmacogenetic inhibition of TrkB signaling with 1NM-PP1 (1NMP) immediately after SCI delayed the onset of pain hypersensitivity, implicating maladaptive TrkB signaling in pain after SCI.

Galactocerebroside lipid nanotubes are membrane-mimicking systems for studying the function and structure of proteins involved in membrane shape remodeling, such as in intracellular trafficking, cell division, and migration or involved in the formation of membrane contact sites. They exhibit a constant and small diameter of 30 nm and a length of up to 2 μm. They can be functionalized with lipid ligands, providing a large binding surface for protein without membrane shape remodeling.

Fenestration of the basilar artery is a well-known anatomical variant which can be misdiagnosed as arterial dissection. Misdiagnosis as an aneurysm is also possible and has been reported. A 41-year-old woman was referred to our hospital for evaluation of a suspected aneurysm of the proximal basilar artery trunk found on 1.

Background: Hamstring tendon (HT) autografts have become a popular choice for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. However, small-diameter grafts are inevitably encountered during surgery, which have poor biomechanical properties. Hybrid grafts (HGs) using an allograft combined with small diameter HT are gaining interest from surgeons.
