Heart–Insula Axis in PTSD: Isoproterenol Evidence
2026-09-19
A 2026 European Journal of Pharmacology study identifies a vagus-dependent heart–insula pathway linking sympathetic cardiac overactivation to insular cortex hyperactivity and PTSD-like behaviors in mice. Its combination of isoproterenol modeling, cervical vagotomy, electrophysiology, immunofluorescence, and propranolol rescue provides a useful framework for testing causal heart–brain signaling.

Selective Hypothermic Albumin Perfusion in Stroke
2026-09-17
A 2026 rat study found that intra-arterial selective cooling human serum albumin infusion produced stronger neuroprotection than selective cooling saline or albumin-only comparators after cerebral ischemia-reperfusion. The findings connect improved neurological recovery with reduced neuroinflammation and attenuation of blood-brain barrier injury through the ROCK1/MLC–F-actin axis, while highlighting important translational questions about dosing, timing, and clinical feasibility.
