Scientists Gene Hack Parasite to Deliver Drugs to BrainScientists engineered Toxoplasma gondii to act as a carrier for therapeutic proteins, potentially treating neurological disorders by bypassing the blood-brain barrier.
New Gene Delivery Method Paves the Way for Advanced Brain TherapiesAAVs have potential for gene therapy but struggle to cross the blood-brain barrier, complicating treatments for brain disorders.

Engineered brain parasite ferries useful proteins into neuronsA parasite found in cat feces or undercooked meat can potentially deliver therapeutic proteins to the brain.
Organoids merge to model the blood-brain barrierCombining brain and blood-vessel organoids mimics the blood-brain barrier for drug and disease study.
Small study shows a possible reason some long COVID patients experience 'brain fog'Long COVID patients with brain fog have increased blood-brain barrier permeability.Biological evidence suggests brain fog in long COVID patients is not just psychological.
Long Covid brain fog' may be due to leaky blood-brain barrier, study findsResearchers suggest brain fog in long Covid may be linked to leaky blood-brain barrierProtein S100 levels in Covid patients with brain fog indicate blood-brain barrier breakdown
