Co‐activation of Selective Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptor Subtypes Is Required for Neuroprotection against Alzheimer's Disease

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Beta‐amyloid peptide (Aβ)‐induced suppression of hippocampal GABAergic interneuron activity drives hyperexcitability, amyloid pathology, and cognitive impairment in Alzheimer's disease (AD), suggesting that enhancing hippocampal inhibition may be protective.

Astrocytes Coordinate Neurovascular Coupling During Prolonged Sensory Demand via AQP4/TRPA1/BEST1/D‐Serine Signaling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Neuronal activation leads to astrocytic transient volume changes, activating transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) channels, leading to Ca2+ influx. Activation of TRPA1 causes the release of D‐serine through BEST1. Finally, the augmented extracellular levels of D‐serine boost neuronal activity by binding GluN1‐containing NMDARs, leading to CBV

Cannabinoid CB1 Receptor in Nociceptors Mediates Postoperative Analgesia via ASIC3 Inhibition

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
CB1R and ASIC3 are co‐expressed in CGRP+ nociceptors of mouse DRG. Plantar incision triggers an upregulation of ASIC3 and activation of ASIC3+ neurons, driving mechanical allodynia. CB1R activation suppresses ASIC3 function and downstream ERK1/2 phosphorylation, thereby braking nociceptive signaling and accelerating pain resolution.

Stimulation of OGG1 Enhances Oxidative DNA Damage Repair and Protects Against Acute Liver Failure by Acetaminophen

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Chemical switching of OGG1 by CMM‐98 accelerates oxidative DNA damage repair and enhances hepatocyte resilience during acetaminophen‐induced acute liver injury. By promoting efficient processing of OGG1‐generated repair intermediates, CMM‐98 reduces oxidative damage, preserves cellular integrity, and protects against acute liver failure, identifying ...

A Molecularly Defined Midbrain Circuit Mechanism for Sound‐Driven Defensive Behavior and Anxiety

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Schematic diagram showing the Cbln2+ ICx–dPAG circuit for sound‐driven defensive and anxiety‐like behaviors. ABSTRACT The innate defense behaviors in response to threatening sounds play a fundamental role in survival. However, the neural circuits that detect threat‐relevant auditory cues and transform them into defensive behaviors remain poorly defined.

Targeted Mechanogenetics to Modulate Specific Deep Neural Circuits

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study introduces mechanogenetics, a nanobubble‐enhanced sonogenetic strategy for selective modulation of feeding‐related neural circuits in the mouse lateral hypothalamus. Mechanogenetic stimulation modulates feeding behavior through glutamatergic projections from the lateral hypothalamus to the ventral tegmental area, highlighting its potential ...

Modulation of Presynaptic Inhibitory Retinal Circuits for Retinal Ganglion Cell Neuroprotection in Glaucoma

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Ocular hypertension induces early hyperactivity in inner retinal inhibitory circuitry before substantial retinal ganglion cell loss. Sustained pharmacological inhibition of GABAergic/glycinergic neurotransmission and Vgat‐targeted Lin28 expression suppress this hyperactivity and improve RGC survival without reducing intraocular pressure. These findings

A Hypothalamic Oxytocinergic–Sympathetic Axis Couples Anxiety Dysregulation With Impaired Tendon–Bone Repair

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
RCI is associated with functional suppression of oxytocinergic neurons in the PVN. Reduced PVNOXT neuronal activity contributes to altered sympathetic regulation involving the IML–sympathetic chain pathway, accompanied by changes in norepinephrine signaling at the BTI.

A Novel Reactive Oxygen Species‐Responsive Bone‐Targeted Nanoplatform Based on Cloperastine Attenuates Ovariectomy‐Induced Bone Loss by Inhibiting Osteoclast Oxidative Phosphorylation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Cloperastine suppresses osteoclastogenesis by inhibiting PGC1β‐mediated oxidative phosphorylation. Its incorporation into a ROS‐responsive, Asp8‐modified nanoplatform enhances skeletal accumulation. The resulting Clo/Asp8‐PMK‐MCs combine cloperastine‐mediated antiresorptive activity with carrier‐mediated osteogenic activity to attenuate OVX‐induced ...

One‐Step Induction of Oogonia‐Like and Pro‐Spermatogonia‐Like Cells From Porcine Pluripotent Stem Cells

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study established a one‐step method inducing pro‐spermatogonia‐like (activating SOX17) and oogonia‐like (activating SOX17/TFAP2C) cells from porcine pgEpiSCs with a NANOS3‐tdTomato reporter. EGF activates the core PGC program and supports survival; BMP4 further induces NANOS3 and DDX4 expression; IWR1 enhances PGCLC efficiency by suppressing ...
