Glutathione-Mediated Neuroprotection Against Methylmercury Neurotoxicity in Cortical Culture is Dependent on MRP1 [PDF]

, 2012
Methylmercury (MeHg) exposure at high concentrations poses significant neurotoxic threat to humans worldwide. The present study investigated the mechanisms of glutathione-mediated attenuation of MeHg neurotoxicity in primary cortical culture. MeHg (5 μM)

Polysaccharides from wolfberry antagonizes glutamate excitotoxicity in rat cortical neurons [PDF]

, 2009
Glutamate excitotoxicity is involved in many neurodegenerative diseases including Alzheimer's disease (AD). Attenuation of glutamate toxicity is one of the therapeutic strategies for AD.

Re-Visiting Glutamate Toxicity: Implications of Monosodium Glutamate Consumption on Glutamate Metabolism and Metabolic Syndrome

Journal of Endocrinology and Diabetes Mellitus, 2015
Around a quarter of the world’s population is estimated to have metabolic syndrome (metS) which is a major risk factor for type II diabetes, cardiovascular disease and death. While the neurotoxicity of monosodium glutamate (MSG) has long been ruled out, recent trends suggest that excessive MSG intake may be associated with metS. Considering that some

From RNA to DNA: How Cargo Identity Reprograms Lipid Nanoparticle Architecture and Function

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
The evolution of lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) spans from RNA‐LNPs, used in mRNA vaccines, to DNA‐LNPs, ideal for gene therapies. Emerging bionano architectures, decorated with DNA and plasma proteins, pave the way for advanced DNA‐based therapies that are more stable, targeted, and customizable.

Modulation of the GABAergic pathway for the treatment of fragile X syndrome. [PDF]

, 2014
Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is the most common genetic cause of intellectual disability and the most common single-gene cause of autism. It is caused by mutations on the fragile X mental retardation gene (FMR1) and lack of fragile X mental retardation ...

Microglia Mitochondria Support Neuronal Maturation via Metabolic and Transcriptional Reprogramming in Human 3D In Vitro Brain Model

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
xx xx. ABSTRACT Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition characterized by disrupted neuronal circuit maturation. Emerging evidence implicates microglial function and mitochondrial regulation as contributors to ASD‐associated biology, yet the mechanisms linking these processes to neuronal development remain poorly defined ...

Gαi1/3 Is a Novel Regulatory Target for RANKL Signal Transduction and Osteoporosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Osteoporosis, characterized by progressive bone loss and increased fracture risk, is a growing concern as the population ages. Current treatments, though advanced, remain limited, underscoring the necessity for novel therapeutic targets. Recent studies have shown that the immune system plays a key role in osteoporosis, with osteoclasts driving

PAK in Alzheimer disease, Huntington disease and X-linked mental retardation. [PDF]

, 2012
Developmental cognitive deficits including X-linked mental retardation (XLMR) can be caused by mutations in P21-activated kinase 3 (PAK3) that disrupt actin dynamics in dendritic spines.

Time‐Resolved SAXS Reveals Distinct Millisecond Metal‐Induced Conformational Dynamics of Monomeric α‐Synuclein

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Time‐resolved SAXS reveals how physiologically relevant metal ions shape the earliest conformational responses of monomeric α‐synuclein. Fe3+ induces rapid compaction, Cu2+ generates heterogeneous and partially folded ensembles, while Mn2+ and Zn2+ cause only modest changes.
