Neurotrophins are growth factors protect neurons from oxidative stress, and dysregulation of neurotrophic system may result neurocognitive disease. Phenolic been used traditional complementary medicine (TCM) to improve cognitive functions. These affect expression agents, but their underlying molecular mechanisms require further investigation. Therefore, goal this review is determine functional roles brain disorders disorders. While previous studies proposed for neuroprotective activity these compounds, precise mechanism action remains complex poorly understood.

Abstract Alzheimer’s disease (AD) stands as the predominant form of dementia, presenting significant and escalating global challenges. Its etiology is intricate diverse, stemming from a combination factors such aging, genetics, environment. Our current understanding AD pathologies involves various hypotheses, cholinergic, amyloid, tau protein, inflammatory, oxidative stress, metal ion, glutamate excitotoxicity, microbiota-gut-brain axis, abnormal autophagy. Nonetheless, unraveling interplay among these pathological aspects pinpointing primary initiators require further elucidation validation. In past decades, most clinical drugs have been discontinued due to limited effectiveness or adverse effects. Presently, available primarily offer symptomatic relief often accompanied by undesirable side However, recent approvals aducanumab ( 1 ) lecanemab 2 Food Drug Administration (FDA) present potential in disrease-modifying Nevertheless, long-term efficacy safety need Consequently, quest for safer more effective persists formidable pressing task.

Increasing evidence suggests a pivotal role of receptor-interacting protein kinase 1 (RIPK1), an initiator necroptosis, in neuroinflammation. However, the precise RIPK1 microglial activation remains unclear. In present study, we explored lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced neuroinflammation and 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)-induced PD model mice by using RIPK1-specific inhibitors necrostatin-1 (Nec-1) stable (Nec-1s).

Aging in the healthy brain is characterized by a low-grade, chronic, and sterile inflammatory process known as neuroinflammaging. This condition, mainly consisting an up-regulation of response at level, contributes to pathogenesis age-related neurodegenerative disorders. Development this proinflammatory state involves interaction between genetic environmental factors, able induce epigenetic modifications. Indeed, exposure compounds, drugs, infections, can contribute modifications DNA methylome, histone fold proteins, nucleosome positioning, leading modulation neuroinflammatory responses. Furthermore, some modifiers, which combine interact during life course, modeling epigenome dynamics sustain, or dampen phenotype.

Abstract INTRODUCTION MODEL‐AD (Model Organism Development and Evaluation for Late‐Onset Alzheimer's Disease) is creating distributing novel mouse models with humanized, clinically relevant genetic risk factors to capture the trajectory progression of late‐onset disease (LOAD) more accurately. METHODS We created LOAD2 model by combining apolipoprotein E4 (APOE4), Trem2*R47H, humanized amyloid‐beta (Aβ). Mice were subjected a control diet or high‐fat/high‐sugar (LOAD2+HFD). assessed disease‐relevant outcome measures in plasma brain including neuroinflammation, Aβ, neurodegeneration, neuroimaging, multi‐omics. RESULTS By 18 months, LOAD2+HFD mice exhibited sex‐specific neuron loss, elevated insoluble Aβ42, increased neurofilament light chain (NfL), altered gene/protein expression related lipid metabolism synaptic function. Imaging showed reductions volume neurovascular uncoupling. Deficits acquiring touchscreen‐based cognitive tasks observed. DISCUSSION The comprehensive characterization reveals that this important preclinical studies seeking understand LOAD prior independent amyloid plaques tau tangles.

Abstract Neuroinflammation is highly influenced by microglia, particularly through activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome and subsequent release IL-1β. Extracellular ATP a strong activator inducing K + efflux as key signaling event, suggesting that -permeable ion channels could have high therapeutic potential. In these include ATP-gated THIK-1 P2X7 receptors, but their interactions potential role in human brain are unknown. Using novel specific inhibitor combination with patch-clamp electrophysiology slices neocortex, we found generated main tonic conductance microglia sets resting membrane stimulated concentration-dependent manner only via metabotropic potentiation THIK-1. We further demonstrated was mandatory for ATP-evoked IL-1β release, which strongly suppressed blocking Surprisingly, contributed marginally to total presence ATP, dominated P2X7. This suggests previously unknown, -independent mechanism activation. Nuclear sequencing revealed almost selective expression while had much broader expression. Thus, inhibition be an effective and, contrast P2X7, microglia-specific strategy contain neuroinflammation. Graphical
