Brain-to-Spinal Control of Allodynia Laterality and Duration
2026-09-24
Huo and colleagues identify a contralateral pathway from Oprm1-expressing lateral parabrachial neurons through hypothalamic Pdyn neurons to the spinal dorsal horn that restrains the spread and persistence of mechanical allodynia in mice. The findings connect pain laterality and duration to descending circuit control, while highlighting a pathway that can be experimentally separated from tools used to manipulate glutamatergic signaling.

CX-4945 (Silmitasertib): CK2 Inhibition & Evidence
2026-09-23
CX-4945, also called Silmitasertib, is an ATP-competitive CK2 inhibitor used to investigate cancer-cell signaling, apoptosis, and cell-cycle regulation. Product data report activity in cancer-cell models, while a 2026 rat stroke study provides separate evidence that CK2 inhibition can partially mitigate HFPO-DA-aggravated ischemic injury.
