Neuroimmune Microenvironment Reprogramming via Immuno‐piezoelectric Transducers for Synergistic Stem Cell Therapy in Traumatic Brain Injury

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A novel immuno‐piezoelectric transducer is innovatively developed. This device promotes neural stem cell (NSC) differentiation and maturation via ultrasound‐induced electrical stimulation and it amplifies the therapeutic efficacy of NSC in traumatic brain injury (TBI) by modulating the immune microenvironment. This piezoelectric transducer with “immune‐

Diversity of Microglia-Derived Molecules with Neurotrophic Properties That Support Neurons in the Central Nervous System and Other Tissues

Molecules
Microglia, the brain immune cells, support neurons by producing several established neurotrophic molecules including glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF).

Steroid Receptor Coactivator‐1 Drives Tumor‐Associated Macrophage Reprogramming by Mediating MMP12 Transcription in Pancreatic Cancer Perineural Invasion

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Steroid receptor coactivator‐1 (SRC‐1) reprograms tumor‐associated macrophages (TAMs) via signal transducer and activator of transcription 1(STAT1)‐mediated matrix metallopeptidase 12 (MMP12) transcription to drive perineural invasion (PNI) in pancreatic cancer.

Clinical and molecular features and therapeutic perspectives of spinal muscular atrophy with respiratory distress type 1 [PDF]

, 2015
Spinal muscular atrophy with respiratory distress (SMARD1) is an autosomal recessive neuromuscular disease caused by mutations in the IGHMBP2 gene, encoding the immunoglobulin μ-binding protein 2, leading to motor neuron degeneration.

Increasing the specificity of neurotrophic factors [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2010
Neurotrophic factors are capable of accomplishing many tasks. In addition to regulating neural cell survival and differentiation, they can influence changes in synaptic transmission and higher order behaviors, such as aggression, addiction, depression, learning, and memory.

The GLP1R Agonist Semaglutide Inhibits Reactive Astrocytes and Enhances the Efficacy of Neural Stem Cell Transplantation Therapy in Parkinson's Disease Mice

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Compared to transplantation of neural stem cells (NSCs) alone, the combined treatment of NSCs with semaglutide more effectively improves motor dysfunction in Parkinson's disease (PD) mice. This synergistic effect may result from semaglutide's ability to suppress microglial activation, thereby preventing the transformation of resting astrocytes into ...

Regular versus Irregular Exercise Differentially Modulates Hippocampal‐Hepatic Acetylcholine Flux to Coordinate Fear Memory Extinction and Liver Inflammation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Ma et al. report the hippocampal and hepatic acetylcholine (ACh) levels are differently modulated by regular versus irregular exercise, which contributes to coordinate hippocampal astrocyte activity and hepatic FBXL6high neutrophil recruitment. This ACh‐modulated brain‐liver circuit links the effects of exercise on fear memory extinction and liver ...

Neurotrophic growth factors for the treatment of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis: where do we stand ?

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2010
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a devastating neurodegenerative disease that results in progressive loss of motoneurons, motor weakness and death within 3-5 years after disease onset.
