Novel Insight into Atogepant Mechanisms of Action in Migraine Prevention

New Research Reveals the Mechanism of Atogepant in Migraine Prevention Background Migraine is a common and highly disruptive neurological disorder affecting millions of people worldwide. Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide (CGRP) is believed to play a key role in the pathophysiology of migraine. CGRP released from sensory trigeminal ganglia neurons in ...

Targeting the Transferrin Receptor to Transport Antisense Oligonucleotides Across the Mammalian Blood-Brain Barrier

Introduction In recent years, oligonucleotide-based therapeutic technologies, such as antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) and small interfering RNAs (siRNAs), have been widely applied in the treatment of various neurological disorders. The basis for their application is that these technologies can selectively regulate target RNA molecules, which are ...

Revisiting Distinct Nerve Excitability Patterns in Patients with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

“Revisiting Distinct Nerve Excitability Patterns in Patients with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis” Academic Background Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) is a devastating neurodegenerative disease characterized by the progressive loss of central and peripheral motor neurons. Although the disease is clinically and genetically heterogeneous, axonal hy...
