Abstract The primary function of microglia is to maintain brain homeostasis. However, in several neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s disease, the pathophysiological hallmarks that drive disease progression involve neurotoxicity and alterations neuroinflammation. In this study, we exposed murine neonatal microglial cultures external signals mimic vivo stimuli caused by pathogens, injury, or toxic agents. presence benzoyl ATP (bzATP) lipopolysaccharide (LPS), observed a coordinated increase expression interleukins chemokines. We focused on dynamics differentially expressed microRNAs (miRNAs) are statistically significant (DEMs) tracked their post-activation dynamics. Monitoring miRNAs 3 8 hours (h) revealed robust changes 33 57 DEMs, most which were upregulated. DEMs exhibiting strongest temporal regulation included miR-155, miR-132, miR-3473e, miR-222, miR-146b. Additionally, strong downregulation miR-3963 was attributed exposure bzATP.

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder primarily characterized by the loss of dopaminergic neurons in substantia nigra. Mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, and neuroinflammation are recognized as critical pathological mechanisms driving neurodegeneration PD. Exosome (Exo)-based therapies, particularly those derived from human neural stem cells (hNSCs), offer promising neuroprotective effects due to their ability transfer bioactive molecules that modulate cellular processes. Resveratrol (RES), polyphenolic compound with potent antioxidant anti-inflammatory properties, has been shown enhance therapeutic potential cell (SC)-derived Exos. This study investigated RES-treated hNSCs-derived Exos (RES-hNSCs-Exos) on SH-SY5Y exposed 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP+), neurotoxin commonly used model Parkinsonian neurotoxicity. Treating MPP+ led significant reductions viability, mitochondrial increased activation inflammatory pathways. Treatment RES-hNSCs-Exos rescued MPP+-induced toxicity improving enhancing ATP production, increasing biogenesis, reducing reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation. The findings also demonstrated expression essential genes involved such PGC1α, NRF1, Tfam, indicating improved function presence RES-hNSCs-Exos. Further analysis revealed these protective were mediated activating AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) Nrf2 signaling pathways, which promoted health reduced stress. Moreover, treatment suppressed downregulating NLRP3 inflammasome secretion pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1β IL-18. In conclusion, results suggest exhibit against neurotoxicity function, inhibiting neuroinflammation. These highlight hNSCs-Exos novel strategy for diseases like PD, RES valuable enhancer efficacy.

This study examines the expression of exosomal microRNAs (miRNAs) as potential biomarkers radon-induced effects. A total 109 participants from high- and low-radon areas Kazakhstan were included. Exosomal hsa-miR-125b-5p hsa-miR-320c levels quantified using real-time PCR. Results revealed 25.4-fold increase 12.5-fold decrease exposed to high radon compared controls. Bioinformatic analysis identified key target genes, such PRDM1 IRF4, which are implicated cancer development. These findings suggest that miRNAs could serve non-invasive exposure, offering early diagnosis monitoring cancer. The underscores need further research validate these reliable diagnostic tools.
