Open frontiers
All gaps →The debate identified blood-brain barrier penetration as critical for JAK inhibitors but didn't resolve whether spinal cord pharmacokinetics differ from brain tissue. This anatomical specificity question directly impacts drug development priorities for myelopathy treatments.

Can systemic CD38 activation be achieved without triggering pro-inflammatory responses that accelerate neurodegeneration?CD38's pleiotropic effects on NAD+ homeostasis, calcium signaling, and immune responses create therapeutic challenges. The debate identified this as a critical safety concern but provided no resolution for selective activation strategies.

What are the tissue-specific safety thresholds for TFEB modulation in different brain regions?The debate highlighted that TFEB effects vary by cell type and disease context, but specific safety windows for neurons versus glia remain undefined. This knowledge gap prevents rational dosing strategies for TFEB-targeted therapeutics.

Can selective acid sphingomyelinase modulators achieve therapeutic ceramide reduction without triggering Niemann-Pick-like pathology?The debate proposed partial SMPD1 inhibition as promising but didn't address the safety margin between therapeutic benefit and lysosomal dysfunction. This knowledge gap is critical for clinical translation given the known risks of complete sphingomyelinase inhibition.

Can vagal nerve stimulation combined with GLP-1R agonists synergistically enhance neuroprotection in PD models?The debate proposed vagal-mediated neuroprotective signaling but lacked evidence for therapeutic synergy between electrical stimulation and pharmacological GLP-1R activation. This combination approach could offer a novel dual-modality treatment if mechanistically validated.

Why does Atremorine selectively affect dopaminergic neurotransmitters while sparing serotonin and histamine?The abstract reports selective effects on dopamine, adrenaline, and noradrenaline but no impact on serotonin or histamine systems. This selectivity pattern is unexplained and understanding it could reveal novel therapeutic targets for neurotransmitter modulation. Gap type: unexplained_observation Source paper: Atremorine in Parkinson's disease: From dopaminergic neuroprotection to pharmacogenomics. (2021, Med Res Rev, PMID:34106485)
How do polyphenols in mustard honey cross the blood-brain barrier to activate hippocampal TrkB/CREB/BDNF signaling?The study demonstrates hippocampal molecular changes after oral honey administration but doesn't address bioavailability or brain penetration of active compounds. This pharmacokinetic gap is critical for understanding therapeutic feasibility and optimal dosing strategies. Gap type: unexplained_observation Source paper: Phytoconstituents of Indian mustard honey impart antidepressant activity in reserpine-induced depressed condition through activation of TrkB/CREB/BDNF pathway in hippocampus. (2026, Nutritional neuroscience, PMID:41017663)
What are the cell-type specific effects of mTOR modulation in APOE4 carriers across CNS cell populations?The Skeptic highlighted that TREM2 expression spans multiple myeloid cells beyond microglia, questioning CNS specificity claims. The debate didn't resolve whether mTOR targeting would selectively benefit microglia or cause off-target effects in other brain cells.
