Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a chronic, progressive neurodegenerative disease characterized by the loss of motor neurons. Dysregulated peripheral immunity has been identified as hallmark ALS. Neutrophils, front-line responders innate immunity, contribute to host defense through pathogen clearance. However, they can concurrently play detrimental role in chronic inflammation. With unveiling novel functions neutrophils diseases, it becomes essential review our current understanding and recognize gap knowledge about their Thus, detailed comprehension biological processes underlying neutrophil-induced pathogenesis ALS may assist identifying potential cell-based therapeutic strategies delay progression.

Interleukin-17A (IL-17A) has been implicated in the progression of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Parkinson's (PD). However, effect FDA-approved Secukinumab (SEC), an IL-17A inhibitor, on PD remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate neuroprotective SEC its potential mechanisms a 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)-induced mouse model PD. Male C57BL/6 J mice were mainly assigned three groups: Sham, MPTP, MPTP + SEC. Motor coordination was assessed using climbing rod rotarod tests. Dopaminergic neurons (TH +) glial cells (Iba-1 , GFAP substantia nigra evaluated immunohistochemistry immunofluorescence. Flow cytometry used analyze immune cell populations brain spleen. Inflammatory cytokines chemokines quantified RT-PCR. treatment significantly alleviated loss dopaminergic improved motor mice. It also reduced infiltration peripheral cells, including CD4 T NK monocyte-macrophages into brain. attenuated activation decreased expression pro-inflammatory (CCL2, CXCL9), which recruit These results suggest that protects attenuates neuroinflammation MPTP-induced model. might be effective therapeutic approach for clinical application future. • reduces axons inhibits

Abstract In a healthy brain, neuroinflammation, controlled by the main intermediary for immune response microglia and astrocytes, contributes to maintain physiological functions such as secretion of neurotrophic factors, removal cell tau amyloid-β (Aβ) debris, local homeostasis. When becomes chronic, it can become pathological fuel causing glial cells malfunction not perform their function clearing resulting in further damage neurons. Multiple studies highlight that an intense crosstalk is activated between peripheral blood white (PBWCs) central nervous system (CNS). Nevertheless, how PBWC be carriers biomarkers CNS neuropathological states still far completely known. this work, we aimed observe content could related moderate-severity DAT order have early signals from neurodegeneration brain initiate. Protein analysis been performed Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) patients respect those controls differently expressed proteins investigated. Our data showed deregulation pathways involved since MCI level deregulated considered markers onset progression.

This study aimed to explore the relationship between corneal nerve degeneration and elevated dendritic cells (DCs) in diabetic keratopathy. Corneas from healthy mice were analyzed using single-cell RNA sequencing. Corneal density DC T-cell infiltration quantified through whole-mount staining. Freshly isolated mouse trigeminal ganglion (TG) neurons co-cultured with immature DCs, mature activated CD8+ T cells, CD4+CD25- cells. TG neurite outgrowth was assessed identify potential effector driving degeneration. In addition, interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) blocking antibodies used evaluate their effects on mice. Compared age-matched mice, exhibited a significant reduction sensitivity, along increased of CD4+ vitro co-culture experiments revealed that rather than DCs significantly inhibited outgrowth. Among cytokines, IFN-γ corneas impaired induced degeneration, whereas IL-4 IL-17 had no such effect. Blocking alleviated T-cell-induced inhibition but not or contribute process partially mediated by IFN-γ.
