Synergistic stress-relieving and cognitive-enhancing effects of walnut peptide and theanine in human brain organoid and mouse stress models.

Phytomedicine

Background: Stress is a prevalent mental health concern that often emerges in late adolescence or early adulthood. Since 2007, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has not approved any novel anxiolytic pharmaceuticals, leading to increased interest in nutritional supplements as alternative therapies for stress management.

Purpose: Building on our previous study, this work aims to investigate the synergistic effects of Theanine (Th) and Walnut Peptide (WP) on stress mitigation and cognitive enhancement.

Cutting-edge technologies in neural regeneration.

Cell Regen

September 2025

Center for Translational Neural Regeneration Research, Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, Hangzhou, Zhejiang, 310016, China.

Neural regeneration stands at the forefront of neuroscience, aiming to repair and restore function to damaged neural tissues, particularly within the central nervous system (CNS), where regenerative capacity is inherently limited. However, recent breakthroughs in biotechnology, especially the revolutions in genetic engineering, materials science, multi-omics, and imaging, have promoted the development of neural regeneration. This review highlights the latest cutting-edge technologies driving progress in the field, including optogenetics, chemogenetics, three-dimensional (3D) culture models, gene editing, single-cell sequencing, and 3D imaging.

Background/aims: Patient-derived organoids (PDOs) are promising preclinical models that replicate critical tumor features. However, intratumoral heterogeneity challenges the clinical utility of PDOs, especially in capturing diverse tumor cell subpopulations.

Methods: Single-cell transcriptomics was used to analyze PDOs from distinct sites within a single gastric cancer tumor, aiming to assess their ability to reflect intratumoral heterogeneity.

Endometriosis is a chronic, systemic, inflammatory disease characterized by the presence of endometrium-like tissue growing outside of the uterus. One of its main symptoms is chronic pain and inflammation leading to a decreased quality of life. This is a common disease, as at least one in ten female-born individuals have endometriosis.

Recent advances in three-dimensional (3D) biological brain models in vitro and ex vivo are creating new opportunities to understand the complexity of neural networks but pose the technological challenge of obtaining high-throughput recordings of electrical activity from multiple sites in 3D at high spatiotemporal resolution. This cannot be achieved using planar multi-electrode arrays (MEAs), which contact just one side of the neural structure. Moreover, the specimen adhesion to planar MEAs limits fluid perfusion along with tissue viability and drug application.
