Cognitive impairment is a core feature of neurodevelopmental (schizophrenia) and aging-associated (mild cognitive Alzheimer’s dementia) neurodegenerative diseases. Limited efficacy current pharmacological treatments warrants further search for new targets nootropic interventions. The breakdown myelin, phospholipids axonal sheath that protects the conduction nerve impulse between neurons, was proposed as neuropathological abnormality precedes promotes deposition amyloid-β in neuritic plaques. present review recent literature our own pre- clinical data suggest (for first time) anthranilic acid (AA)-induced activation microglial-expressed G-protein coupled receptor (GPR109A) inhibits cytosolic phospholipase A2 (cPLA2), an enzyme triggers degradation myelin consequently attenuates impairment. suggests up-regulation AA formation sex-specific compensatory (adaptive) reaction aimed to prevent/treat AA–GPR109A–cPLA2–myelin–cognition cascade interventions, e.g., administration pegylated kynureninase, catalyzes from Kynurenine (Kyn), tryptophane catabolite; interferon-alpha; central peripheral Kyn aminotransferase inhibitors increase availability substrate formation; vagus stimulation. predicts activity exogenous GPR109A agonists were designed underwent trials (unsuccessful) anti-dyslipidemia agents. might contribute pathogenesis Data on disorders are scarce, needs exploration studies

Aging is the most prominent risk factor for neurodegeneration occurrence. The common neurodegenerative diseases (NDs), Alzheimer’s (AD) and Parkinson’s (PD) diseases, are characterized by incidence of proteinopathy, abnormal activation glial cells, oxidative stress, neuroinflammation, impaired autophagy cellular senescence excessive patient’s age. Moreover, mitochondrial disfunction, epigenetic alterations neurogenesis inhibition, together with increased blood–brain barrier permeability gut dysbiosis, have been linked to ND pathogenesis. Since NDs still lack curative treatment, recent research has sought therapeutic options in restoring microbiota supplementing probiotic bacteria-derived metabolites beneficial action host—so called postbiotics. current review focuses on literature explaining mechanisms involved pathogenesis addressing impact that postbiotics as a whole mixture particular metabolites, such short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), lactate, polyamines, polyphenols, tryptophan exopolysaccharides bacterial extracellular vesicles, ageing-associated processes underlying also discusses issue implementing into prophylaxis therapy, depicting them compounds senescence-triggered dysfunctions worth translating from bench pharmaceutical market response “silver consumers” demands.

Introduction: Limited clinical efficiency of current medications warrants search for new antipsychotic agents. Deorphanized G-protein coupled receptor (GPR)109A has not attracted much attention schizophrenia researchers. We analyzed literature and our data on endogenous agonists GPR109A, beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHB), anthranilic (AA), butyric (BA), nicotinic (NA) acids, in individuals with schizophrenia. Data: Sex specific differences: plasma AA levels were 27% higher female than male patients correlated PANSS before 6 weeks antipsychotics treatment ( r = .625, P < .019, Spearman’s test). There was no sex differences after treatment. inversely (−.58, .005) scores responders to (at least, 50% improvement) but nonresponders. Preclinical studies suggested effect BHB BA. Clinical observed NA; benzoate sodium, an precursor; interventions associated upregulation (eg, fasting ketogenic diets). Discussion: Upregulation anti-inflammatory neuroprotective receptor, inhibits cytosolic phospholipase A2 (cPLA2), enzyme that breakdown myelin, lipid-based insulating axonal sheath protects promotes nerve conduction. Brain cPLA2 is upregulated subjects at high-risk development psychosis. Lower myelin content cognitive decline Therefore, GPR109A might exert via suppression cPLA2, and, consequently, preservation integrity. Future research explore effects (1) human pegylated kynureninase, catalyzes formation from kynurenine (Kyn); (2) inhibitors Kyn conversion into kynurenic acid, example, KYN5356, already impaired 3-hydroxykynurenine; (3) synthetic GPR 109A agonists, MK-1903 SCH900271 GSK256073, underwent trials as anti-dyslipidemia expression, be a endophenotype schizophrenia, especially impairment, needs thorough assessment.

Neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD), the most common form of dementia, represent a growing global health crisis, yet current treatment strategies remain primarily palliative. Recent studies have shown that neurodegeneration through complex interactions within gut–brain axis largely depends on gut microbiota and its metabolites. This review explores intricate molecular mechanisms linking dysbiosis to cognitive decline, emphasizing impact microbial metabolites, including short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), bile acids, tryptophan neuroinflammation, blood–brain barrier (BBB) integrity, amyloid-β tau pathology. The paper highlights major microbiome signatures associated with disease, detailing their metabolic pathways inflammatory crosstalk. Dietary interventions promise in modulating composition, potentially mitigating neurodegenerative processes. critically examines influence dietary patterns, Mediterranean Western diets, microbiota-mediated neuroprotection. Bioactive compounds like prebiotics, omega-3 polyphenols exhibit neuroprotective effects by reducing neuroinflammation. Furthermore, it discusses emerging microbiome-based therapeutic strategies, probiotics, postbiotics, fecal transplantation (FMT), potential for slowing progression. Despite these advances, several knowledge gaps remain, interindividual variability responses need large-scale, longitudinal studies. study proposes an integrative, precision medicine approach, incorporating science into paradigms. Ultimately, cognizance at mechanistic level could unlock novel avenues, offering non-invasive, diet-based strategy managing improving health.
