Neuronal A2A Receptor Exacerbates Synapse Loss and Memory Deficits in APP/PS1 Mice

A2A Adenosine Receptor Exacerbates Synaptic Loss and Memory Deficits in APP/PS1 Mice Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder associated with progressive cognitive decline, characterized by the deposition of extracellular β-amyloid (Aβ) plaques and the accumulation of hyperphosphorylated tau protein in neurons. Some epidemiological ...

Amelioration of astrocyte-mediated neuroinflammation by EI-16004 confers neuroprotection in an MPTP-induced Parkinson’s disease model

Alleviating Effect of EI-16004 on Astrocyte-Mediated Neuroinflammation in MPTP-Induced Parkinson’s Disease Model Background Introduction Parkinson’s Disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder primarily affecting the elderly, characterized by tremors, bradykinesia, rigidity, and loss of postural reflexes, mainly due to the loss of dopaminergic neu...

Long-term accumulation of T cytotoxic 1, T cytotoxic 17, and T cytotoxic 17/1 cells in the brain contributes to microglia-mediated chronic neuroinflammation after ischemic stroke

Long-term Effects of CD8+ T Cell Subsets in Neuroinflammation After Ischemic Stroke Background Ischemic stroke is a leading cause of death and disability. After stroke, neuroinflammation is rapidly induced, activating various cells such as mast cells, astrocytes, microglia, and vascular endothelial cells. These reactive cells then express various i...

The Sirtuin 5 Inhibitor MC3482 Ameliorates Microglia-Induced Neuroinflammation Following Ischaemic Stroke by Upregulating the Succinylation Level of Annexin-A1

The Sirtuin 5 Inhibitor MC3482 Ameliorates Microglia-Induced Neuroinflammation following Ischaemic Stroke by Upregulating the Succinylation Level of Annexin-A1 Background Ischaemic stroke is the most common type of stroke and a leading cause of death and disability worldwide. Its pathogenesis is complex, involving processes such as oxidative stress...

Sex dimorphism in pain threshold and neuroinflammatory response: the protective effect of female sexual hormones on behavior and seizures in an allergic rhinitis model

Research Report: The Protective Role of Gender on Pain Threshold and Neuroinflammatory Response in Allergic Rhinitis Model Background Introduction Allergic rhinitis (AR) is an inflammation of the nasal mucosa caused by allergens, affecting approximately 40% of the global population. Rhinitis not only causes physical discomfort but is also often acc...

Potential Role of BMAL1 in Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Depression-Like Behavior and Its Associated "Inflammatory Storm"

The Role of BMAL1 in LPS-Induced Depressive Behavior and Related “Inflammatory Storm” Introduction According to the 2019 Global Burden of Disease Study, mental disorders are listed as one of the top 10 causes of global burden, with depression being a major contributor. Over 350 million people worldwide suffer from depression, making it the most com...

Doxycycline-loaded calcium phosphate nanoparticles with a pectin coat can ameliorate lipopolysaccharide-induced neuroinflammation via enhancing AMPK

Protective Effect of Doxycycline-Loaded Calcium Phosphate Nanoparticles on LPS-Induced Neuroinflammation in Mice In the field of neuroscience research, neuroinflammation is an important pathological feature of many neurological diseases. Neuroinflammation is a complex response of the central nervous system (CNS) to various damaging triggers (such a...

GPR34 Senses Demyelination to Promote Neuroinflammation and Pathologies

Background Introduction Sterile neuroinflammation is an important factor driving various neurological diseases. Myelin debris, released during the demyelination process in various neurological diseases (such as stroke, spinal cord injury (SCI), multiple sclerosis (MS), traumatic brain injury (TBI), and neurodegenerative diseases), can act as an inf...

The impact of high-fat diet on microglial cells and its effects on brain function

Research on Saturated Fatty Acids and Brain Function Background Introduction Obesity and metabolic syndrome are major global health challenges today. Numerous studies have shown that excessive consumption of diets rich in saturated fats leads to obesity, accompanied by a series of metabolic complications such as insulin resistance and diabetes. How...

Park7/DJ-1 Deficiency Impairs Microglial Activation in Response to LPS-Induced Inflammation

Important Research Interpretation from “Journal of Neuroinflammation” 2024: The Impact of Park7/DJ-1 Deficiency on Microglial Activation Academic Background Parkinson’s Disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease, characterized by the accumulation of α-synuclein and progressive loss of dopaminergic neurons. Aging is the primary...
