Targeting ROCK2 to Restore Epileptic Synaptic Networks via Mitophagy Activation: Insights from Translational Imaging of SV2A In Vivo

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
By integrating synaptic vesicle glycoprotein 2A PET imaging and transcriptomics, this study identifies Rho‐associated protein kinase 2 (ROCK2) as a critical regulator of synaptic network dysfunction in temporal lobe epilepsy. Pharmacological ROCK2 inhibition restores synaptic density and enhances mitophagy, thereby reducing seizures and neuronal damage.

Lobar pneumonia due to human metapneumovirus: a case report

International Journal of Infectious Diseases
Human metapneumovirus (hMPV) is a respiratory pathogen that can cause lower respiratory tract infections and pneumonia in immunocompetent adults. Pneumonia caused by hMPV is reportedly more likely to cause bronchial wall thickening and ground-glass ...

Metabolic Interplay in Acute Lung Injury: PARK7 Integrates FADS1/2‐Dependent PUFA Metabolism and H3K14 Lactylation to Attenuate Endothelial Ferroptosis and Dysfunction

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
SCAP/ARDS patients show reduced unsaturated fatty acids (UFAs) but higher PARK7 and lactate in plasma. PARK7 correlates positively with lactate and negatively with UFAs. Pulmonary endothelial cell multi‐omics show FADS1/2 downregulation and impaired PUFA metabolism. Lactate boosts PARK7 via H3K14 lactylation, and PARK7 then restores FADS1/2.

Refractory Status Epilepticus and Therapeutic Uncertainties: a Comprehensive Review on Targeting Neuroinflammation and Rationale for Developing a Platform Trial

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Refractory status epilepticus (RSE) is a life‐threatening neurological emergency with high rates of death and long‐term disability, but treatments for it are often based on limited evidence. RSE is now understood to involve neuroinflammation, which has led to the exploration of anti‐inflammatory and immunomodulatory agents like Tocilizumab. Traditional

Phenylboronic Acid‐Modified Copper Nanozymes as Nanoscavengers of Bacterial Polysaccharides Causing Acute Lung Injury

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A novel copper nanocluster coated with 4‐mercaptobenzeneboronic acid (CuMPBA) is developed to target bacterial polysaccharides for addressing complicated acute lung injury (ALI) caused by severe burns and early pulmonary infections. CuMPBA exhibits dual anti‐inflammatory and antibacterial mechanisms by: (a) binding and degrading toxic bacterial ...

Molecular dynamics of the host response to Streptococcus pneumoniae pneumonia in baboons

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Using an established, clinically relevant nonhuman primate model of S. pneumoniae pneumonia, this study aims to identify novel potential molecular diagnostic and therapeutic targets using peripheral blood bulk transcriptomic, unbiased proteomic, and cytokine measurements. The constructed models were highly accurate in classifying bacterial pneumonia in

Revisiting the monocrotaline‐treated rat as a model of inflammatory lung disease: COVID‐19 and future pandemic threats?

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
In this review, the pathological, molecular, and cellular changes observed in the COVID‐19 lung are compared to those in the laboratory rat treated with monocrotaline (MCT). Similarities that reflect common changes associated with inflammation and endothelial cell dysfunction are observed in both states, leading to a lung pathology characterized by ...

Pediatric Round Pneumonia

Pediatrics and Neonatology, 2014
“Round pneumonia” or “spherical pneumonia” is a well-characterized clinical entity that seems to be less addressed by pediatricians in Taiwan. We herein report the case of a 7-year-old boy who presented with prolonged fever, cough, and chest X-rays ...
