Hans Joachim Scherer (1906-1946) was a German pathologist who fled Germany to Belgium to work on glioma genesis, growth and progression. Despite being seldom cited, and due to the contributions discussed in this article, Hans Joachim Scherer, can be considered a founding father of contemporary neuropathology and glioma research. We discuss Scherer's achievements in glioma classification, glomerular structures of glioma, primary and secondary glioblastoma, glioma growth patterns, non-resectability of glioma, pseudopalisadic necrosis and the late occurrence of symptoms in glioma.

Introduction: The resolution of the skin's inflammatory response is only possible if its barrier function is restored. TRPV1 channel activation plays an important role during inflammation but the effect of this activation on the skin barrier under inflammatory conditions has not been clarified. We hypothesize that it could potentially aid the keratinocyte barrier by reducing inflammatory cytokine release and promoting tight junction development.

Emerging evidence points to a major role of salivary flow and viscoelastic properties in taste perception and mouthfeel. It has been proposed that sweet-tasting compounds influence salivary characteristics. However, whether perceived differences in the sensory properties of structurally diverse sweet-tasting compounds contribute to salivary flow and saliva viscoelasticity as part of mouthfeel and overall sweet taste perception remains to be clarified.

The palatability of a pharmaceutical preparation is a significant obstacle in developing a patient-friendly dosage form. Bitter taste is an important factor for patients in (i) selecting a certain drug from generic products available in the market and (ii) adhering to a therapeutic regimen. The various methods developed for identification of bitter tasting and bitter-taste modulating compounds present a number of limitations, ranging from limited sensitivity to lack of close correlations with sensory data.

The cinnamon-derived bioactive aroma compound cinnamaldehyde (CAL) has been identified as a promising antiobesity agent, inhibiting adipogenesis and decreasing lipid accumulation in vitro as well as in animal models. Here, we investigated the antiadipogenic effect of cinnamyl isobutyrate (CIB), another cinnamon-derived aroma compound, in comparison to CAL in 3T3-L1 adipocyte cells. In a concentration of 30 μM, CIB reduced triglyceride (TG) and phospholipid (PL) accumulation in 3T3-L1 pre-adipocytes by 21.

Background: Efficacy of the adjuvanted recombinant zoster vaccine (RZV) against herpes zoster (HZ) was demonstrated in pivotal trials ZOE-50 (NCT01165177) and ZOE-70 (NCT01165229). This study was designed to offer RZV to placebo recipients of these parent studies.

Methods: Vaccine safety and suspected HZ episode occurrence were assessed for 12 months following vaccination.
