Bilirubin Targeting WNK1 to Alleviate NLRP3‐Mediated Neuroinflammation
Advanced Science, EarlyView.At physiological concentrations, bilirubin binds to the kinase domain of WNK1, thereby augmenting its activity and facilitating the phosphorylation of downstream SPAK/OSR1. This phosphorylation inhibits KCC2 activity, leading to elevate intracellular chloride levels in neurons.

In vivo evidence for NMDA receptor mediated excitotoxicity in a murine genetic model of Huntington Disease [PDF]
, 2008 N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) mediated excitotoxicity is implicated as a proximate cause of neurodegeneration in Huntington Disease (HD). However, this hypothesis has not been tested rigorously in vivo. NMDAR NR2B-subunits are the predominant NR2

Longitudinal, Multimodal Tracking Reveals Lasting Neurovascular Impact of Individual Microinfarcts
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Jin et al. investigate the neurovascular impact of microinfarcts, revealing transient neural suppression with minimal cell death and recovery linked to vascular remodeling. Fast‐spiking interneurons exhibit reduced excitability, whereas regular‐spiking neurons showed increased bursting activity. Disruptions in low‐gamma phase locking suggest persistent

Proteomic analysis of cortical neuronal cultures treated with poly-arginine peptide-18 (R18) and exposed to glutamic acid excitotoxicity [PDF]
, 2019 Poly-arginine peptide-18 (R18) has recently emerged as a highly effective neuroprotective agent in experimental stroke models, and is particularly efficacious in protecting cortical neurons against glutamic acid excitotoxicity.

Designed Biomaterial‐Enhanced Cell Transplantation for Neural Tissue Engineering
Aggregate, EarlyView.Biomaterials offer a promising solution for cell transplantation in the central nervous system by creating a protective environment that enhances cell survival, integration, and functional recovery in preclinical models of neurological disorders. ABSTRACT Cell transplantation therapy in the central nervous system is hindered by limited survival and ...

Transport of BMAA into Neurons and Astrocytes by System x\u3csub\u3ec\u3c/sub\u3e- [PDF]
, 2018 The study of the mechanism of β-N-methylamino-l-alanine (BMAA) neurotoxicity originally focused on its effects at the N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor. In recent years, it has become clear that its mechanism of action is more complicated.

Nimesulide limits kainate-induced oxidative damage in the rat hippocampus [PDF]
, 2000 Kainate induces a marked expression of cyclooxygenase-2 after its systemic administration. Because cyclooxygenase-2 activity is associated to the production of reactive oxygen species, we investigated the effects of nimesulide, a selective cyclooxygenase-
