Recent advances in therapeutic strategies for Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease using protein/peptide co‐modified polymer nanoparticles

Neuroprotection
The blood‐brain barrier (BBB), which protects the brain from foreign molecules, makes delivery of drugs to the central nervous system is challenging. Nanoparticles (NPs) have been used over the past decade as drug delivery systems for the treatment of ...

Iron Oxide Nanozyme as Reactive Oxygen and Nitrogen Species Scavenger to Regulate Microglial Homeostasis in Stroke

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
6 nm iron oxide nanoparticles (IONP6) exhibit enzyme‐like activities that scavenge reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS), including nitric oxide (NO). In stroke models, IONP6 promotes microglial polarization toward the M2 phenotype, reduces neuroinflammation, and improves neurological outcomes, offering a promising drug‐free approach to mitigate ...

Microglial senescence in neurodegeneration: Insights, implications, and therapeutic opportunities

Neuroprotection
The existing literature on neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs) reveals a common pathological feature: the accumulation of misfolded proteins. However, the heterogeneity in disease onset mechanisms and the specific brain regions affected complicates the ...

Membralin Assembles a MAN1B1–VCP Complex to Target Foreign Glycoproteins from the Endoplasmic Reticulum to Lysosomes for Degradation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies Membralin as an ER‐phagy receptor that recruits MAN1B1 and VCP to form a selective ERLAD complex. By sensing dense N‐glycan clusters on viral fusion glycoproteins, this ubiquitin‐independent pathway directs SARS‐CoV‐2 spike, Ebola GP, influenza HA, and HIV‐1 Env to lysosomal degradation, thereby limiting viral infectivity ...

Targeting brain‐derived neurotrophic factor in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases: A review

Neuroprotection
Neurodegenerative diseases, marked by the gradual death of neurons, present a significant and growing public health challenge. Brain‐derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is crucial for the survival, development, and synaptic plasticity of neurons.

Resilient Calvarial Bone Marrow Supports Retinal Repair in Type 2 Diabetes

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Skull bone (calvarium) marrow in diabetic mice stay structurally intact and keeps making blood cells, unlike the bone marrow of the leg bones. The skull marrow is exposed to cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), which contains protective molecules called oxysterols.

Potassium channel activators protect the N-methyl-D-aspartate-induced cerebral vascular dilation after combined hypoxia and ischemia in piglets [PDF]

, 1998
Background and Purpose-Cerebral arteriolar dilation to N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) is a neuronally mediated multistep process that is sensitive to cerebral hypoxia and ischemia (H/I).

Amelioration of Post‐Stroke Edema and Microcirculatory Dysfunction via Targeted AQP4 Inhibition While Preserving the Glymphatic System

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Compared to untargeted therapy, the targeted nanocarrier, Angiopep‐2‐conjugated Lipid Nanoparticle (A‐LNP) loaded with TGN‐020 (TGN), selectively accumulated in stroke‐injured regions. It suppressed local aquaporin‐4 (AQP4) overexpression, thereby alleviating cerebral edema and hypoperfusion while preserving global glymphatic clearance.

NADH‐Reductive Stress Induced by Dihydrolipoamide Dehydrogenase Activation Contributes to Cuproptosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates a cuproptosis mechanism involving nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH)‐reductive stress in neural cells. Copper activates dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase under mitochondrial pH, accumulating NADH. Copper also induces mitochondrial permeability transition pore opening, facilitating NADH translocation to the cytosol and ...
