Microglial PDCD4 Deficiency Mitigates Neuroinflammation-Associated Depression via Facilitating Daxx Mediated PPARγ/IL-10 Signaling

Deletion of Microglia PDCD4 Alleviates Neuroinflammation-Associated Depression by Promoting DAXX-Mediated PPARγ/IL-10 Signaling Background In recent years, neuroinflammatory processes have been demonstrated to be associated with various psychiatric disorders, including schizophrenia, depression, and anxiety. A common feature of these diseases is th...

Single-Cell RNA Sequencing Reveals the Evolution of the Immune Landscape During Perihematomal Edema Progression After Intracerebral Hemorrhage

Single-cell RNA Sequencing Reveals Evolution of Immune Landscape in Perihematomal Edema Post Hemorrhagic Stroke Research Background Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is one of the global health threats, renowned for its high disability and mortality rates. Among the secondary brain injuries caused by ICH, the formation of perihematomal edema (PHE) is ...

Regulation of Neuroinflammation and Demyelination by Cystatin F Following Murine Coronavirus Infection of the Central Nervous System

The Role of Cystatin F in Regulating Neuroinflammation and Demyelination in Spinal Cord Poliovirus Infection Background Knowledge Cystatin F is a secreted lysosomal cysteine protease inhibitor associated with every stage of virus-related neurological diseases, including host defense, demyelination, and myelination. However, research on how Cystatin...

Genome-Wide Loss of Heterozygosity Predicts Aggressive, Treatment-Refractory Behavior in Pituitary Neuroendocrine Tumors

Prediction of Invasiveness and Treatment Resistance Behavior of Pituitary Neuroendocrine Tumors Based on Genome-Wide Loss of Heterozygosity Background: Pituitary neuroendocrine tumors (PitNETs) are mostly benign, but a small portion exhibit invasive and treatment-resistant behaviors, continuing to grow or metastasize even after surgery, conventiona...
