Abstract We created a novel laboratory experience where undergraduate students explore the techniques used to study protein misfolding, unfolding, and aggregation. Despite the importance of protein misfolding and aggregation diseases, protein unfolding is not typically explored in undergraduate biochemistry laboratory classes.

Nanomaterial‐based immune therapeutic strategies in neurodegenerative diseases
This review highlights the immunomodulatory potential of nanomaterials (NMs) in treating neurodegenerative diseases (NDs). It focuses on their roles in regulating innate and adaptive immune responses to maintain immune homeostasis. By providing insights into these mechanisms, the review lays the groundwork for innovative NMs therapeutic strategies to ...

Real‐time biosensing of Parkinson's disease biomarkers via NIR‐activated upconversion nanoparticles
Schematic illustration of the luminescence resonance energy transfer‐driven core‐shell‐shell UCNPs (cssUCNPs@Fluo4) nanoprobe for simultaneous monitoring of Ca²⁺‐temperature dynamics in Parkinson's disease models. Abstract Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder with incompletely understood pathophysiology, necessitating ...

Mitochondria and the Actin Cytoskeleton in Neurodegeneration
ABSTRACT Mitochondrial dysfunction and cytoskeletal disorganization are widely recognized hallmarks of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), Huntington's disease (HD), and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

Research progress on the role of inflammatory mediators in the pathogenesis of epilepsy
In the central nervous system, activated immune cells lead to the overproduction of inflammatory mediators through the corresponding signal pathway. Under the stimulation of inflammatory factors, neuroinflammation ultimately occurs. Overexpression of inflammatory mediators and activated immunocytes plays an important role in the emergence and ...

Mass Spectrometry Structural Proteomics Enabled by Limited Proteolysis and Cross‐Linking
ABSTRACT The exploration of protein structure and function stands at the forefront of life science and represents an ever‐expanding focus in the development of proteomics. As mass spectrometry (MS) offers readout of protein conformational changes at both the protein and peptide levels, MS‐based structural proteomics is making significant strides in the

The Emerging Role of Microbial Extracellular Vesicles in Neuroinflammation and Neurodegeneration
ABSTRACT Neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric disorders are increasingly viewed as systemic conditions shaped by interactions among peripheral immunity, microbiota, and the central nervous system. However, the mechanisms linking microbial activity to neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration remain poorly defined.
