Human Brain Organoids Build Circuits in Cortex-Less Mice
x/stanford-university
— 1d
Researchers have transplanted lab-grown human brain organoids into mice engineered to lack most of their cortex, creating xenocortical models in which human tissue integrates and expands to occupy missing brain regions, showing activity and neural connections that can restore aspects of cognition and behavior. These studies establish a new in vivo platform for studying human brain development and neurodevelopmental disorders, while highlighting both therapeutic potential and ongoing challenges in translating organoid-based findings to human health.

BPC-157, an unapproved peptide backed by RFK Jr. and often used with TB-500 as the “Wolverine stack,” is being consumed across a wide range of conditions in the gray market, with new-user numbers rising 33-fold from 2020 to 2026 and regulation still unresolved as the FDA weighs compounding despite safety concerns. Researchers warn that real-world use is hard to track, 1,039 documented patients exist, and there is no solid evidence that the peptide improves healing or pain, underscoring safety risks amid burgeoning popularity.

New analyses show Mercury has contracted up to about 14.5 miles (roughly 23 kilometers), representing 10% to 30% more shrinkage than earlier models suggested, driven by cooling of its large iron core. Researchers say cratering debris and surface roughness conceal contraction features, so a revised, planet-wide assessment was needed to reveal the true extent of Mercury’s shrinkage.
