Epigallocatechin-3-Gallate Inhibits LPS/AβO-Induced Neuroinflammation in BV2 Cells Through Regulating the ROS/Txnip/NLRP3 Pathway

Epigallocatechin-3-Gallate (EGCG) Inhibits Neuroinflammation in BV2 Cells by Regulating the ROS/TXNIP/NLRP3 Pathway Research Background Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) is a degenerative brain disorder primarily affecting the elderly, characterized by persistent cognitive dysfunction and behavioral impairment. The neuropathological changes in AD include β-...

Association of EIF2AK3 Variants with Neurocognitive Impairment in People Living with HIV

Research Report on the Association between Gene Variants and Neurocognitive Impairment in HIV Patients Over the past few decades, antiretroviral therapy (ART) has greatly improved the health of people infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). However, even with effective viral suppression and partial immune system recovery, up to 50% of Peo...

Glycyrrhizic Acid Alleviates Semen Strychni-Induced Neurotoxicity Through the Inhibition of HMGB1 Phosphorylation and Inflammatory Responses

Research Report on the Mechanism of Glycyrrhizic Acid in Alleviating Neurotoxicity Induced by Semen Strychni Background Introduction Semen Strychni, derived from the dried mature seeds of Strychnos Nux-vomica, has been found to possess various pharmacological activities, including anti-tumor, anti-inflammatory, immunosuppressive, and neuroexcitator...

The Roles of RhoA/ROCK/NF-κB Pathway in Microglia Polarization Following Ischemic Stroke

Overview of the Role of RhoA/ROCK/NF-κB Pathway in Microglial Polarization after Ischemic Stroke In recent years, ischemic stroke has become one of the leading causes of death and disability worldwide. However, effective treatments for ischemic stroke are still lacking. Studies have shown that microglia, as resident macrophages in the central nervo...

β-sitosterol alleviates neuropathic pain by affecting microglia polarization through inhibiting tlr4/nf-κb signaling pathway

β-Sitosterol Alleviates Neuropathic Pain by Inhibiting the TLR4/NF-κB Signaling Pathway Background Neuropathic pain is a common and difficult-to-treat chronic pain condition in clinical practice, with complex and not fully understood etiology. Research has shown that neuroinflammation is one of the main causes of chronic neuropathic pain. Microglia...

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...

Alleviating CB2-dependent ER stress and mitochondrial dysfunction improves chronic cerebral hypoperfusion-induced cognitive impairment

Research Overview and Background With the acceleration of global aging, the incidence of ischemic cerebrovascular diseases is also rising significantly. Elderly people over 65 are particularly susceptible to cognitive decline caused by cerebral ischemia, making Chronic Cerebral Hypoperfusion (CCH) a major cause of cognitive impairment and Vascular ...

Lipid Droplet Accumulation Mediates Macrophage Survival and Treg Recruitment via the CCL20/CCR6 Axis in Human Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Lipid Droplet Accumulation Mediates Macrophage Survival and Treg Recruitment in Human Hepatocellular Carcinoma via the CCL20/CCR6 Axis Background Macrophages are a major component of the tumor microenvironment (TME) and regulate the entire tumor process. In the TME, macrophages exhibit dynamic heterogeneity and plasticity, which affects their role ...

BAG6 restricts pancreatic cancer progression by suppressing the release of IL33-presenting extracellular vesicles and the activation of mast cells

Research Report on the Mechanism of BAG6 Restricting Pancreatic Cancer Progression Research Background Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PDAC) has an extremely poor prognosis, with a median survival of only 6 months, urgently requiring new treatment methods. In recent years, studies have found that extracellular vesicles (EVs) released by tumor cel...
