The Role of HDAC3 in Retinal Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury Background Retinal ischemia-induced retinal diseases are significant characteristics of common visual impairments such as diabetic retinopathy (DR) and central retinal artery and vein occlusion. The therapeutic effects for these ischemic retinal diseases are generally ineffective, and the des...
The Role of Microglia in Neuroinflammation: Metabolic and Gender Differences in Aging Research Background Aging is a major risk factor for neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) and Parkinson’s Disease. Even healthy aging is accompanied by a decline in cognitive function. Previous research has indicated that microglia undergo s...
Hyperglycemia Enhances Brain Susceptibility to Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Neuroinflammation via Astrocyte Reprogramming Academic Background Introduction Diabetes is a chronic metabolic disease affecting millions of people worldwide, characterized by hyperglycemia, or elevated blood glucose levels. For a long time, research has primarily focused on ...
Radiation Retinopathy Research Report Radiation Retinopathy (RR) is a common side effect following radiation therapy (such as brachytherapy or proton beam therapy) in ophthalmic tumor treatments. RR presents as delayed and progressive microvascular alterations, ischemia, and macular edema, which may ultimately lead to vision loss, neovascular glauc...
Neonatal Respiratory Infections Lead to Brainstem Neuroinflammation Introduction Respiratory infections are one of the most common diseases and causes of morbidity among newborns. During the acute phase, infections are known to cause widespread peripheral inflammation. However, the effect of this inflammation on the critical neural centers that con...
Research Report: Effect of Bruton Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor Evobrutinib on Myelin Repair and CNS Inflammation in Multiple Sclerosis Background Introduction Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a demyelinating disease of the Central Nervous System (CNS) where the myelin sheath of patients is damaged by inflammation. Traditionally, MS is considered to be prima...
Comprehensive Academic Report on Scientific Paper Research Background Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory and degenerative disease of the central nervous system (CNS), affecting approximately 2.8 million people worldwide. The pathological mechanisms of this disease are mainly related to autoimmune-mediated demyelination and axonal transectio...
Unique Patterns of Glycosylation in Plaques and Microglia in Alzheimer’s Disease Research Background Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia and a devastating neurodegenerative disorder. AD is characterized by two pathological features: extracellular β-amyloid (Aβ) plaques and intracellular phosphorylated Tau neurofibrillary ta...
New Findings in Alzheimer’s Disease Research: The Regulatory Role of Signal Peptide Peptidase-Like 2b in the β-Amyloid Cascade Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) is a complex neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the abnormal accumulation of β-amyloid peptides (Aβ) in brain tissue and the formation of intracellular neurofibrillary tangles. The abnormal...
In this study, researchers explored the role of the TAK1 activation pathway in CAR T cell therapy-associated immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS). They established a mouse ICANS model and found that following the transfer of CAR19 T cells, cerebellar cells were activated, underwent morphological changes, and expressed more...
