Abstract Accumulating evidence implicates that herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) has been linked to the development and progression of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). HSV-1 infection induces β-amyloid (Aβ) deposition in vitro vivo, but effect precise mechanism remain elusive. Here, we show brains transgenic 5xFAD mice resulted accelerated Aβ deposition, gliosis, cognitive dysfunction. We demonstrate induced recruitment microglia viral core trigger microglial phagocytosis HSV-GFP-positive neuronal cells. In addition, reveal NLRP3 inflammasome pathway by played a crucial role AD caused infection. Blockade signaling reduces alleviates decline after Our findings support notion is key factor etiology AD, demonstrating activation functions interface AD.

The increasing life expectancy has led to a higher incidence of age-related neurodegenerative conditions. Within this framework, neuroinflammation emerges as significant contributing factor. It involves the activation microglia and astrocytes, leading release pro-inflammatory cytokines chemokines infiltration peripheral leukocytes into central nervous system (CNS). These instances result in neuronal damage neurodegeneration through activated nucleotide-binding domain leucine-rich repeat containing (NLR) family pyrin protein 3 (NLRP3) nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kB) pathways decreased erythroid 2-related 2 (Nrf2) activity. Due limited effectiveness regarding inhibition neuroinflammatory targets using conventional drugs, there is challenging growth search for innovative therapies alleviating CNS diseases or even before their onset. Our results indicate that interventions focusing on Interleukin-Driven Immunomodulation, Chemokine (CXC) Receptor Signaling Expression, Cold Exposure, Fibrin-Targeted strategies significantly promise mitigate processes. approaches demonstrate potential anti-neuroinflammatory effects, addressing conditions such Multiple Sclerosis, Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis, Parkinson’s Disease, Alzheimer’s Disease. While findings are promising, immunomodulatory often face limitations due Immune-Related Adverse Events. Therefore, conduction randomized clinical trials matter mandatory, will pave way promising future development new medicines with specific therapeutic targets.

Neurodegenerative diseases (NDs) encompass an assorted array of disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, each characterised by distinct clinical manifestations underlying pathological mechanisms. While some cases have a genetic basis, many NDs occur sporadically. Despite their differences, these commonly feature chronic neuroinflammation hallmark. Consensus has recently been reached on the possibility that mitochondria dysfunction protein aggregation can mutually contribute to activation neuroinflammatory response thus onset progression disorders. In present review, we discuss contribution aetiology NDs, highlighting new potential therapeutic targets be identified tackle neurodegenerative processes alleviate pathologies.

Autophagy is a conserved mechanism that degrades damaged or superfluous cellular contents and enables nutrient recycling under starvation conditions. Many neurodegeneration-associated proteins are autophagy substrates, upregulation ameliorates disease in many animal models of neurodegeneration by enhancing the clearance toxic proteins, proinflammatory molecules, dysfunctional organelles. inhibition also induces neuronal glial senescence, phenomenon occurs with increasing age non-diseased brains as well response to stresses. However, aging mutations impair autophagy. This creates potentially detrimental feedback loop whereby accumulation these disease-associated impairs their autophagic clearance, facilitating further aggregation. Thus, understanding how interacts aging, neurodegenerative diseases temporal, cellular, genetic context important for future clinical application autophagy-modulating therapies neurodegeneration.
