An expanding body of research indicates a correlation between the gut microbiota and various diseases. Metabolites produced by act as mediators host, interacting with multiple systems in human to regulate physiological or pathological functions. However, further investigation is still required elucidate underlying mechanisms. One such metabolite involved choline metabolism microbes trimethylamine (TMA), which can traverse intestinal epithelial barrier enter bloodstream, ultimately reaching liver where it undergoes oxidation catalyzed flavin-containing monooxygenase 3 (FMO3) form N-oxide (TMAO). While some TMAO eliminated through renal excretion, remaining amounts circulate leading systemic inflammation, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, mitochondrial disruption normal functions humans. As representative microbial originating from gut, has significant potential both biomarker for monitoring disease occurrence progression tailoring personalized treatment strategies patients.

Abstract Studies in neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease and Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Huntington’s so on, have suggested that inflammation is not only a result of neurodegeneration but also crucial player this process. Protein aggregates which are very common pathological phenomenon can induce neuroinflammation further aggravates protein aggregation neurodegeneration. Actually, even happens earlier than aggregation. Neuroinflammation induced by genetic variations CNS cells or peripheral immune may deposition some susceptible population. Numerous signaling pathways range been to be involved the pathogenesis neurodegeneration, although they still far from being completely understood. Due limited success traditional treatment methods, blocking enhancing inflammatory considered promising strategies for therapy many them got exciting results animal models clinical trials.

Astrocytes are one of the brain's major cell types and responsible for maintaining neuronal homeostasis via regulating extracellular environment, providing metabolic support, modulating synaptic activity. In neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease, astrocytes can take on a hypertrophic appearance. These reactive canonically associated with increases in cytoskeletal proteins, glial fibrillary acidic protein vimentin. However, molecular alterations that characterize human disease tissues have not been extensively studied single resolution. Using nucleus RNA sequencing data from normal, pathologic aging, brains, we identified transcriptomic changes astrocytes.

Abstract Neuroinflammation is an important pathogenesis of neurological diseases and causes a series physiopathological changes, such as abnormal activation glial cells, neuronal degeneration death, disruption the blood‒brain barrier. Therefore, modulating inflammation may be therapeutic tool for treating diseases. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), pluripotent have great potential due to their regenerative ability, immunity, ability regulate inflammation. However, recent studies shown that MSC-derived exosomes (MSC-Exos) play major role in this process key neuroprotection by regulating neuroglia. This review summarizes progress made neuroinflammation focusing on mechanisms which MSC-Exos are involved regulation through signaling pathways TLR, NF-κB, MAPK, STAT, NLRP3 provide some references subsequent research therapy.
