This review delineates the multifaceted roles of natural killer (NK) cells in the central nervous system, spanning direct cytolysis, immunoregulation, and crosstalk with the brain microenvironment. We evaluate the translational potential and challenges of NK cell immunotherapies for a spectrum of neurological conditions.

Our study reveals a novel mechanism by which MSC‐derived EVs alleviate NaIO3‐induced dry AMD‐like pathology. MSC‐EVs deliver miR‐486‐3p into retinal cells to directly inhibit the ferroptosis‐promoting target gene Lcn2. Concurrently, downregulated Lcn2 restores intracellular Gpx4 expression, thereby suppressing ferroptosis and rescuing retinal ...

Prenatal exome sequencing significantly improves diagnostic yield over chromosomal microarray analysis for fetal CNS abnormalities, with a diagnostic yield of 16% in our cohort and 27% in the meta‐analysis. Diagnostic yields vary across different phenotypes. Abstract Introduction Fetal central nervous system (CNS) abnormalities have diverse etiologies,

Long‐term hippocampal alterations and cognitive impairment in a murine model of surgical sepsis
Using a mouse model of surgical sepsis, we tested long‐term memory and analyzed the transcriptome of single cells isolated from the hippocampus. Survivor mice showed worse memory, loss of certain brain cell subpopulations, and abnormal immune cell activity—suggesting that post‐sepsis brain alterations may be linked to cognitive deficits.

A Depolarizing Leak in Sodium Bicarbonate Cotransporter NBCe1 Causes Brain Edema
ABSTRACT Objectives SLC4A4 encodes electrogenic sodium bicarbonate cotransporter NBCe1, prominently expressed in kidney and brain. Recessive loss‐of‐function variants in SLC4A4 cause proximal renal tubular acidosis, no brain edema. In the brain, NBCe1 is expressed by astrocytes, where it regulates pH and mediates astrocyte volume changes.
