Repurposing antimicrobial agents for neuroprotection: Mechanisms, clinical potential, and challenges

Neuroprotection, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial agents exert neuroprotective effects through modulation of interconnected pathways. Tetracyclines, macrolides, antimalarial agents, sulfones, and antiparasitic agents suppress neuroinflammation, oxidative stress, and apoptosis while preserving mitochondrial function and neurotransmission.

Protein O‐Glycosylation Shapes Lymphatic Endothelia and Lymph Node Macrophage Populations

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 18, 30 September 2026.
To study the functional roles of O‐glycans on lymphatic endothelia, we deleted Cosmc, the chaperone required for core‐1 O‐glycan synthesis. Loss of core‐1 O‐glycans entailed major changes in glycoprotein composition of lymphatic endothelial cells (LEC), including reduced podoplanin (Pdpn), CD44, and Lyve‐1, and increased ICAM‐1; reduced CD44 was caused

GW4869 Depletes Macrophages and Increases Number of Extracellular Vesicles in Murine Peritoneal Cavity Fluid

Journal of Extracellular Biology, Volume 5, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Pharmacological strategies to modulate extracellular vesicle (EV) release in vivo are gaining traction, yet their broader effects on local immune microenvironments remain unclear. In this study, we assessed how repeated intraperitoneal (i.p.) dosing of the neutral sphingomyelinase inhibitor GW4869 reshapes the peritoneal cavity.

A Cholera Toxin B-subunit Variant That Binds Ganglioside GM1 but Fails to Induce Toxicity

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2001
Entry of cholera toxin (CT) into target epithelial cells and the induction of toxicity depend on CT binding to the lipid-based receptor ganglioside G(M1) and association with detergent-insoluble membrane microdomains, a function of the toxin's B-subunit. The B-subunits of CT and related Escherichia coli toxins exhibit a highly conserved exposed peptide

Localization patterns of the ganglioside G _M1 in human sperm are indicative of male fertility and independent of traditional semen measures [PDF]

Molecular Reproduction and Development, 2017
Semen analysis lacks a functional component and best identifies extreme cases of infertility. The ganglioside GM1 is known to have functional roles during capacitation and acrosome exocytosis. Here, we assessed whether GM1 localization patterns (Cap-Score™) correspond with male fertility in different settings: Study 1 involved couples pursuing assisted

Electrostatically‐Stabilized PEG‐Free Lipid Nanoparticles for Systemic Nucleic Acid Delivery

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 66, 17 August 2026.
This work describes non‐PEGylated layered lipid nanoparticles (nonPEG LLNPs), a gene delivery platform that improves upon standard PEGylated LNPs via electrostatic adsorption of charged polymers. nonPEG LLNPs maintain colloidal stability under biological stresses, enhance circulation time, and mitigate accelerated blood clearance and hepatic ...
