This resource is a video abstract of a research paper created by Research Square on behalf of its authors. It provides a synopsis that's easy to understand, and can be used to introduce the topics it covers to students, researchers, and the general public. The video's transcript is also provided in full, with a portion provided below for preview:

"Glioma is the most common primary brain tumor and represents a major health problem across the globe. Understanding how gliomas form has proven difficult, especially at the molecular level, but growing evidence points to the important roles played by non-coding RNAs, especially small non-coding RNAs that interact with PIWI proteins, or piRNAs. piRNAs execute functions associated with epigenetic reprogramming and can regulate transcription, translation, development, and mRNA stability. In fact, piRNAs have been detected in many types of cancer and are known to be involved in the development and spread of certain tumors. piRNAs are formed either through the “primary processing pathway” or the secondary “ping-pong cycle” pathway. In conjunction with PIWI proteins, piRNAs execute epigenetic regulation of genes by modifying histones. In this way, piRNAs can influence numerous molecular signaling pathways associated with the formation and spread of gliomas, including the PI3K/AKT and TNF signaling pathways..."

"Alzheimer’s disease and glioblastoma are the most common and devastating diseases in neurology and neurosurgery departments. In glioblastoma, the Alzheimer’s disease-related protein Presenilin1 limits cell proliferation by inhibiting the Wnt/β-catenin pathway. However, the function of this protein and the underlying mechanism are unclear. To learn more, researchers recently examined Presenilin1’s effects on glioblastoma in vitro and in vivo. Presenilin1 repressed glioblastoma cell migration, invasion, and mesenchymal transition in vitro. Interestingly, its expression was positively correlated with that of Sortilin, a pro-invasion molecule in glioma. Presenilin1 interacted with Sortilin at the transmembrane domain and inhibited its expression via cleavage, enabling β-catenin phosphorylation and repressing invasion in glioblastoma cells. In mouse subcutaneous and intracranial transplantation models, Presenilin1 stimulation dramatically reduced glioblastoma invasion and mesenchymal transition..."

Psychology is designed to meet scope and sequence requirements for the single-semester introduction to psychology course. The book offers a comprehensive treatment of core concepts, grounded in both classic studies and current and emerging research. The text also includes coverage of the DSM-5 in examinations of psychological disorders. Psychology incorporates discussions that reflect the diversity within the discipline, as well as the diversity of cultures and communities across the globe.Senior Contributing AuthorsRose M.

"Autophagy is the process by which healthy cells degrade and recycle waste material. Researchers are finding that this vital function is interrupted in different forms of cancer, including brain cancer. A new review describes how researchers are repairing broken autophagy pathways in tumors using microRNAs, or miRNAs. miRNAs are small non-coding RNA molecules that regulate a variety of cellular processes— including autophagy. Understanding the molecular targets of miRNAs and their function is crucial, as it could lead to the development of new therapies for patients with brain tumors..."

"Researchers have zeroed in on the neural structures most vulnerable to Zika virus. Given the devastating neurological effects linked to the virus, their findings could go a long way toward explaining how Zika first takes hold of its host—namely, the developing human fetus. In their study, published in the journal _Acta Neuropathologica Communications_, the researchers infected different types of neural cells extracted from mouse embryos. Because it was unclear which part of the nervous system Zika is most likely to attack, they collected cells from both the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system, a catch-all for nerves lying beyond the brain and spinal cord. And to help ensure they could see the virus in action, for each normal cell they gathered, they also gathered a less defensive one deliberately lacking a virus-fighting immune response. After a few days, some cells had clearly fared better than others..."

"Proteins in the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) family are known to regulate the immune system in cancers, and trials targeting these proteins are currently being conducted. However, the TNF family profile in glioma, the most common cancer originating in the adult central nervous system, is unclear. A recent study analyzed the TNF family profile and clinical characteristics of 1749 glioma cases using data from four public datasets. The expression levels of most TNF family members were positively correlated in the gliomas and were linked to patients’ overall survival. A TNF family signature was identified based on the expression levels in 702 of the cases and validated in the other cases, and a prognostic model was developed to predict 1-, 3-, and 5-year survival for individual patients with glioma. The TNF family-based signature was related to clinical, molecular and genetic characteristics of the patients..."

"Craniopharyngiomas are among the most common calcified tumors in the central nervous system. Although calcification is known to complicate tumor removal, especially in the delicate central nervous system, the underlying mechanism is poorly understood. A recent study examined the calcification of adamantinomatous craniopharyngiomas. Using cultured primary cells, the researchers induced calcification with the protein Bmp2. Calcified cells had elevated expression of the histone deacetylase HDAC3. Paradoxically, however, inhibiting HDAC3 activity increased calcification and differentiation into osteoblasts. Researchers discovered that this disconnect between HDAC3 expression and its activity came down to its cellular location. Bmp2, it turned out, was blocking HDAC3 from relocating to the nucleus. Bmp2 blocked relocation indirectly by increasing the expression of the microRNA miR-181b. miR-181b decreased the expression of the protein CBX4, which normally stabilizes the nuclear localization of HDAC3..."

"Neurotensin is a small protein found throughout the central nervous system and gastrointestinal tract. Here, neurotensin stimulates the growth of various tissues like the gut, pancreas, adrenal gland, and liver. But abnormal expression of neurotensin can lead to or strengthen different types of cancer. A new review examines the roles of neurotensin in non-gastrointestinal cancer. In lung cancer, for example, neurotensin and its most tightly binding receptor, NTSR1, activate the formation of tumor cells. Test-tube experiments suggest a similar role for neurotensin in pancreatic and breast cancers. Tight binding between neurotensin and NTSR1 also promotes cell division in prostate tumors. And in head and neck tumor cells, adding neurotensin promotes invasion and migration. Other forms of cancer that could owe their development to neurotensin include glioma. liver cancer, malignant melanoma, and leukemia..."
