Krüppel‐like factor 4 transcription factor in blood–brain barrier endothelial cells: A potential role in Alzheimer's disease

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
KLF4 (Krüppel‐like factor 4) plays a protective role in blood–brain barrier (BBB). KLF4 plays an ambiguous role in the central nervous system. KLF4 in the BBB endothelial cells could be a potential target for Alzheimer's disease. Abstract Alzheimer's disease is the most prevalent chronic neurodegenerative disorder worldwide, with no sufficient cure ...

Identification of the Micro‐Ribonucleic Acid Profiles of Plant‐Derived Extracellular Vesicles and their Potential Crosskingdom Regulation

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
The present study employs small RNA sequencing to identify the types and content of microRNAs (miRNAs) in four widely utilized plant‐derived extracellular vesicles (pEVs). The functional annotation reveals that the pEV miRNAs are involved in regulating the progression of human cancer and viral infection, thereby demonstrating the crosskingdom ...

Deciphering the skeletal interoceptive circuitry to control bone homeostasis

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
This review introduces the skeletal interoceptive circuitry, covering the ascending signals from bone tissues to the brain (sensors), the central neural circuits that integrate this information and dispatch commands (CPU), and the descending pathways that regulate bone homeostasis (effectors).

Neurodegeneration in multiple sclerosis

open access: yesWIREs Mechanisms of Disease, Volume 15, Issue 1, January/February 2023., 2023
Chronic demyelination results in impaired axon metabolism and function, ultimately leading to progressive neurological decline. Neuroprotective strategies aim to protect axons from inflammatory‐mediated destruction, thereby improving axonal integrity and clinical disability (Image created in BioRender.com).

Oriented artificial nanofibers and laser induced periodic surface structures as substrates for Schwann cells alignment [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
People with injuries to the peripheral nervous system, due to its poor functional regeneration, suffer from paralysis of the facial muscles, fingers and hands, or toes and feet, often for the rest of their lives. Therefore, to improve patients' quality of life, there is an urgent need for conduits that effectively support the healing of large defects ...

The effects of cyclical simulation on the axon hillock diameter of murine intracortical neurons [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2018
Changes to the axon hillock in frequently firing neurons are known to be important predictors of early disease states. Studying this phenomenon is critical to understanding the first insult implicated in multiple neuro-degenerative disorders. To study these changes we used cyclical stimulations using micro-electrodes to the axon hillock of mouse ...
