Abstract Microglia activation is observed in various neurodegenerative diseases. Recent advances single-cell technologies have revealed that these reactive microglia were with high spatial and temporal heterogeneity. Some identified specific states correlate pathological hallmarks are associated functions. both exert protective function by phagocytosing clearing protein aggregates play detrimental roles due to excessive uptake of aggregates, which would lead microglial phagocytic ability impairment, neuroinflammation, eventually neurodegeneration. In addition, peripheral immune cells infiltration shapes into a pro-inflammatory phenotype accelerates disease progression. also act as mobile vehicle propagate aggregates. Extracellular vesicles released from autophagy impairment all contribute progression Thus, enhancing phagocytosis, reducing microglial-mediated inhibiting exosome synthesis secretion, promoting conversion considered be promising strategies for the therapy Here we comprehensively review biology diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s multiple system atrophy, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, frontotemporal dementia, progressive supranuclear palsy, corticobasal degeneration, dementia Lewy bodies Huntington’s disease. We summarize possible microglia-targeted interventions treatments against diseases preclinical clinical evidence cell experiments, animal studies, trials.

Abstract The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is vital for maintaining brain homeostasis by enabling an exquisite control of exchange compounds between the blood and parenchyma. Moreover, BBB prevents unwanted toxins pathogens from entering brain. This barrier, however, breaks down with age further disruption a hallmark many age-related disorders. Several drugs have been explored, thus far, to protect or restore function. With recent connection gut microbiota, microbial-derived metabolites explored their capabilities physiology. review, will focus on components that make up BBB, dissect levels discuss current therapeutics maintain integrity discoveries effects

Significance Impaired neuronal bioenergetics and neuroinflammation are thought to play key roles in the progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD), but their interplay is not clear. AD mouse brains showed lower nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD + ) levels alterations inflammation. Treatment mice with NR reduced neuroinflammation, attenuated DNA damage, prevented cellular senescence. We present evidence that beneficial effects riboside (NR) are, part, through a cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS)–stimulator interferon genes (STING)-dependent pathway. damage was increased by NR. Both cGAS–STING NAD pathways potential therapeutic targets for AD.

Multiple factors combined are currently recognized as contributors to cognitive decline. The main independent risk factor for impairment and dementia is advanced age followed by other determinants such genetic, socioeconomic, environmental factors, including nutrition physical activity. In the next decades, a rise in cases expected due largely aging of world population. There no hitherto effective pharmaceutical therapies treat age-associated dementia, which underscores crucial role prevention. A relationship among diet, activity, lifestyle with function has been intensively studied mounting evidence supporting these development decline chief cause disability globally. Several dietary patterns, foods, nutrients have investigated this regard, some encouraging disappointing results. This review presents current effects components, supplements, sleep social engagement on prevention or delay onset age-related dementia.

Abstract The human gastrointestinal tract is populated with a diverse microbial community. vast genetic and metabolic potential of the gut microbiome underpins its ubiquity in nearly every aspect biology, including health maintenance, development, aging, disease. advent new sequencing technologies culture-independent methods has allowed researchers to move beyond correlative studies toward mechanistic explorations shed light on microbiome–host interactions. Evidence unveiled bidirectional communication between central nervous system, referred as “microbiota–gut–brain axis”. microbiota–gut–brain axis represents an important regulator glial functions, making it actionable target ameliorate development progression neurodegenerative diseases. In this review, we discuss mechanisms As provides essential cues microglia, astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, examine communications microbiota these cells during healthy states Subsequently, diseases using metabolite-centric approach, while also examining role microbiota-related neurotransmitters hormones.

Across neurodegenerative diseases, common mechanisms may reveal novel therapeutic targets based on neuronal protection, repair, or regeneration, independent of etiology site disease pathology. To address these and discuss emerging treatments, in April, 2021, Glaucoma Research Foundation, BrightFocus the Melza M.
