Differential Regulation of miR206 and miR423-3p in Rapidly and Slowly Progressing Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Patients This article was published in the 2024 issue of “Neuromolecular Medicine,” titled “Differential Regulation of miR206 and 423-3p in Rapidly and Slowly Progressing Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) Patients.” The authors include ...

Acetylation of c-Myc at Lysine 148 Protects Neurons After Ischemia

Research Background This study explores the role of the cancer-related transcription factor c-myc in penumbra neurons following ischemic stroke. Although the role of c-myc in cell death and survival has been recognized, research on its post-translational modifications, especially acetylation, in ischemic models remains insufficient. Investigating t...

The Relationship Between CYP46A1 Polymorphism and Suicide Risk: A Preliminary Investigation

Preliminary Research Report on the Relationship between CYP46A1 Polymorphism and Suicide Risk Research Background Suicide, defined as the intentional act of ending one’s own life, is a major global public health issue. The incidence of suicide is higher among individuals with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). However, the role of cholesterol in suic...

Drug Treatment Attenuates Retinal Ganglion Cell Death by Inhibiting Collapsin Response Mediator Protein 2 Phosphorylation in Mouse Models of Normal Tension Glaucoma

Scientific Research Report: Drug Treatment Alleviates Retinal Ganglion Cell Death in Normal Tension Glaucoma Mouse Model by Inhibiting Collapsin Response Mediator Protein 2 Phosphorylation Background Normal Tension Glaucoma (NTG) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease in the glaucoma family. Typically, glaucoma is associated with elevated intra...

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...
