Chrysin attenuates diabetes-induced retinal injury by inhibiting microglial GBP3/NLRP3/GSDMD-mediated pyroptosis. [PDF]
We investigated the therapeutic potential and mechanism of chrysin in experimental diabetic retinal disease. Using a streptozotocin (STZ)‐induced diabetic mouse model and high‐glucose‐stimulated BV2 microglia, we revealed chrysin‐responsive pyroptosis‐associated signatures and identified GBP3 as a regulated node.

TULP4, a novel E3 ligase gene, participates in neuronal migration as a candidate in schizophrenia
Mutations identified from four SCZ pedigrees resulted in decreased TULP4 expression. Tulp4 knockdown caused delayed neuron migration in embryonic mice, and impaired cognition and prepulse inhibition in adult mice. These phenotypes may be related to TULP4 through its involvement in the formation of a novel E3 ubiquitin ligases.

Caspase-8, -12, and -3 Activation by 7-Ketocholesterol in Retinal Neurosensory Cells
To determine the caspase pathways involved with 7-ketocholesterol (7kCh)-induced apoptosis in rat R28 cells.R28 cells were exposed to 7kCh with or without low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and z-VAD-fmk, a pan-caspase inhibitor. Cell viability was measured by a trypan blue dye exclusion assay.

NLRP3 and autophagy in retinal ganglion cell inflammation in age-related macular degeneration: potential therapeutic implications [PDF]
Retinal degenerative diseases were a large group of diseases characterized by the primary death of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs). Recent studies had shown an interaction between autophagy and nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor 3 ...
