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...

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...

Deletion of myeloid HDAC3 promotes efferocytosis to ameliorate retinal ischemic injury

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...

Microglia Undergo Sex-Dimorphic Transcriptional and Metabolic Rewiring During Aging

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

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 ...

Role of Inflammation in a Rat Model of Radiation Retinopathy

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 Infection Causes Neuroinflammation in the Brainstem

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...

BTK Inhibition Limits Microglia-Perpetuated CNS Inflammation and Promotes Myelin Repair

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...

Vagus Nerve Stimulation Enhances Remyelination and Decreases Innate Neuroinflammation in Lysolecithin-Induced Demyelination

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...
