Increasing evidence suggests that elevated intracellular levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a significant role in the pathogenesis many diseases. Increased ROS can lead to oxidation lipids, DNA, and proteins, contributing cellular damage. Hence, maintenance redox hemostasis is essential.

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.

Optineurin (OPTN) mutations are linked to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and normal tension glaucoma (NTG), but a relevant animal model is lacking, the molecular mechanisms underlying neurodegeneration unknown. We find that OPTN C-terminus truncation (OPTN∆C) causes late-onset of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs), optic nerve (ON), spinal cord motor neurons, preceded by decrease axonal mitochondria in mice. discover directly interacts with both microtubules mitochondrial transport complex TRAK1/KIF5B, stabilizing them for proper anterograde transport, dependent manner. Furthermore, overexpressing OPTN/TRAK1/KIF5B prevents not only truncation-induced, also ocular hypertension-induced neurodegeneration, promotes robust ON regeneration. Therefore, addition generating models NTG ALS, our results establish as facilitator microtubule-dependent necessary adequate delivery, its loss likely mechanism neurodegeneration.

Background/Objectives: Epilepsy is a complex neurological disorder with strong link to oxidative stress, which contributes seizure susceptibility and neuronal damage. This study aims investigate the effects of curcumin (Cur), sodium valproate (VPA), mitocurcumin (MitoCur), mitochondria-targeted curcumin, on behavioral stress parameters in zebrafish model pentylenetetrazole (PTZ)-induced seizures. Methods: Adult were exposed two concentrations (0.25 0.5 µM for Cur MitoCur; 0.25 mM VPA). Behavioral assessments, including locomotion, spatial exploration, directional movement, conducted using EthoVision XT tracking software. Oxidative markers, superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), total antioxidant status (TAS), analyzed brain homogenates. Results: analyses indicated dose-dependent effects, higher doses generally reducing activity. MitoCur at enhanced defenses reduced damage, while exhibited pro-oxidant shift. VPA improved TAS without significantly altering MDA levels. Conclusions: These findings emphasize importance dose optimization antioxidant-based epilepsy treatments highlight potential as targeted therapeutic option.

Several studies identified noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) as a risk factor for sensory aging and cognitive decline processes, including neurodegenerative diseases, such dementia age-related (ARHL). Although the association between noise- age-induced impairment has been widely documented by epidemiological experimental studies, molecular mechanisms underlying this are not fully understood it is known how these factors (aging noise) can interact, affecting memory processes. We recently found that early noise exposure in an established animal model of ARHL (C57BL/6 mice) accelerates onset cochlear dysfunctions. Here, we extended our previous data investigating what happens central brain structures (auditory cortex hippocampus), to assess relationship possible combined effect on domain.
