Segmental Arithmetic: Summing Up the Hox Gene Regulatory Network for Hindbrain Development in Chordates
It is important to understand when and how the hindbrain segmentation program evolved. Recent studies have shed some light.
Nanotherapeutic Systems for Local Treatment of Brain Tumors
Malignant brain tumors are heterogeneous and invasive, with high morbidity and mortality rates. The main challenge associated in treating such tumors is the presence of the blood-brain barrier (BBB), which actively filters out molecules entering from the blood stream.

A Golden Guide to Brain Surgery
Taking the headache out of brain surgery: these gold nanoparticles cross the blood–brain barrier and report when they hit tumour tissue.
Preparing Brain Tumors for Therapy
Matrix-metalloprotease (MMP)-sensitive hydrogel particles intend to utilize the unique properties of tumor cells, such as high concentration of MMP enzymes, along with the synergistic activities of an apoptosis-inducing protein (TRAIL) and the TRAIL sensitizer drug Quinacrine.
