Hallucination is recognized as a core psychotic symptom and is particularly more prevalent in individuals with schizophrenia. Strikingly, a significant number of subjects with Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), Huntington's disease (HD), and other neurological diseases like cerebral stroke and epileptic seizure also experience hallucination. While aberrant neurotransmission has been linked to the neuropathogenic events of schizophrenia, the precise cellular mechanism accounting for hallucinations remains obscure. Neurogenesis is a cellular process of producing new neurons from the neural stem cells (NSC)-derived neuroblasts in the brain that contribute to the regulation of pattern separation, mood, olfaction, learning, and memory in adulthood. Impaired neurogenesis in the hippocampus of the adult brain has been linked to stress, anxiety, depression, and dementia. Notably, many neurodegenerative disorders are characterized by the mitotic and functional activation of neuroblasts and cell cycle re-entry of mature neurons leading to a drastic alteration in neurogenic process, known as reactive neuroblastosis. Considering their neurophysiological properties, the abnormal integration of neuroblasts into the existing neural network or withdrawal of their connections can lead to abnormal synaptogenesis, and neurotransmission. Eventually, this would be expected to result in altered perception accounting for hallucination. Thus, this article emphasizes a hypothesis that aberrant neurogenic processes at the level of reactive neuroblastosis could be an underlying mechanism of hallucination in schizophrenia and other neurological diseases.</p>","PeriodicalId":19171,"journal":{"name":"Neurosignals","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141534919","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therapy Resistance and Failure in Uveal Melanoma 葡萄膜黑色素瘤的治疗耐药性与失败

As a first-line treatment with radiotherapy, this therapy is limited by the size and location of the tumor. The risk of postoperative vision loss and second surgery for enucleation remains. UM is a special type of melanoma that is resistant to chemotherapy, and although the treatment is not effective, research has been investigated on this topic, suggesting new ideas for the treatment of UM - immunotherapy and targeted therapy. The current nivolumab plus ipilimumab treatment regimen has yielded relatively successful results, with some very encouraging case reports, but not as good as their efficacy in skin cancer. Despite the current unsatisfactory results of these new therapies, it is still the most attractive answer for UM that is highly metastatic and has a very poor prognosis.

This association does not necessarily reflect a pathophysiological role of milk intake in the development of Parkinson's disease. Nevertheless, the present review discusses a potential mechanism possibly mediating an effect of milk consumption on Parkinson's disease. The case is made that milk is tailored in part to support bone mineralization of the suckling offspring and is thus rich in calcium and phosphate. Milk intake is thus expected to enhance intestinal calcium phosphate uptake. As binding to fatty acids impedes Ca<sup>2+</sup> absorption, low fat milk is particularly effective. Calcium and phosphate uptake inhibit the formation of 1,25(OH)<sub>2</sub>D<sub>3</sub> (1,25-dihydroxy-vitamin D3 = calcitriol), the active form of vitamin D. Calcium inhibits 1,25(OH)<sub>2</sub>D<sub>3</sub> production in part by suppressing the release of parathyroid hormone, a powerful stimulator of 1,25(OH)<sub>2</sub>D<sub>3</sub> formation. Phosphate excess stimulates the release of fibroblast growth factor FGF23, which suppresses 1,25(OH)<sub>2</sub>D<sub>3</sub> formation, an effect requiring Klotho. 1,25(OH)<sub>2</sub>D<sub>3</sub> is a main regulator of mineral metabolism, but has powerful effects apparently unrelated to mineral metabolism, including suppression of inflammation and influence of multiple brain functions. In mice, lack of 1,25(OH)<sub>2</sub>D<sub>3</sub> and excessive 1,25(OH)<sub>2</sub>D<sub>3</sub> formation have profound effects on several types of behavior, such as explorative behavior, anxiety, grooming and social behavior. 1,25(OH)<sub>2</sub>D<sub>3</sub> is produced in human brain and influences the function of various structures including substantia nigra. In neurons 1,25(OH)<sub>2</sub>D<sub>3</sub> suppresses oxidative stress, inhibits inflammation and stimulates neurotrophin formation thus providing neuroprotection. As a result, 1,25(OH)<sub>2</sub>D<sub>3</sub> is considered to favorably influence the clinical course of Parkinson's disease. In conclusion, consumption of milk could in theory accelerate the downhill course of neuronal function in Parkinson's disease. However, substantial additional experimentation is required to define the putative causal role of 1,25(OH)<sub>2</sub>D<sub>3</sub> in the pathophysiology of Parkinson's disease and its sensitivity to milk consumption.</p>","PeriodicalId":19171,"journal":{"name":"Neurosignals","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"38767864","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
