Background: Chronic neuropathic pain generally has a poor response to treatment with conventional drugs. Sympathectomy can alleviate neuropathic pain in some patients, suggesting that abnormal sympathetic-somatosensory signaling interactions might underlie some forms of neuropathic pain. The molecular mechanisms underlying sympathetic-somatosensory interactions in neuropathic pain remain obscure.

Elucidating human cerebral cortex function is essential for understanding the physiological basis of both healthy and pathological brain states. We obtained extracellular local field potential recordings from cortical slices of neocortical tissue from refractory epilepsy patients. Multi-electrode recordings were combined with histological information, providing a two-dimensional spatiotemporal characterization of human cortical dynamics in control conditions and following modulation of the excitation/inhibition balance.

Persistence of long-term hyperglycemia results in the glyco-oxidation of plasma proteins, which is considered to be a significant factor in metabolic dysfunction, linking hyperglycemia to the emergence of vascular complications. Methylglyoxal (MGO), a dicarbonyl species formed excessively under diabetes, elevates the oxidative stress, enhancing the generation of superoxide anion, which ultimately reacts with nitric oxide (NO•) to form peroxynitrite (PON). PON, being a powerful nitro-oxidizing agent distorts protein structure, hampering its function.

We present the theory, implementation, and benchmarking of a real-time time-dependent density functional theory (RT-TDDFT) module within the RMG code, designed to simulate the electronic response of molecular systems to external perturbations. Our method offers insights into nonequilibrium dynamics and excited states across a diverse range of systems, from small organic molecules to large metallic nanoparticles. Benchmarking results demonstrate excellent agreement with established TDDFT implementations and showcase the superior stability of our time integration algorithm, enabling long-term simulations with minimal energy drift.

Writing in Neuron, Zhang et al. identify a subpopulation of glioblastoma cells from patient tumor samples with progenitor-like features that expresses the potassium ion channel KCND2. In mouse and organoid models, these cells enhance neural activity at the glioma-neural interface.
