PGC-1α promotes the survival of newborn neurons within AD hippocampus through activation of the FNDC5/BDNF/TrkB signaling pathway

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience
BackgroundThe learning and memory impairments observed in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) are strongly associated with impaired neurogenesis in the hippocampal region.

Skeletal Muscle PGC-1β Signaling is Sufficient to Drive an Endurance Exercise Phenotype and to Counteract Components of Detraining in Mice [PDF]

, 2017
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ coactivator (PGC)-1α and -1β serve as master transcriptional regulators of muscle mitochondrial functional capacity and are capable of enhancing muscle endurance when overexpressed in mice.

Vascular Calcification: Mechanisms, Models, and Therapies

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vascular calcification represents an active multifactorial process that mirrors several key features of skeletal bone mineralization. Clinically, it is characterized by diminished arterial compliance and increased arterial wall stiffness, both of which serve as independent predictors of significant adverse cardiovascular events.

Human cachexia induces changes in mitochondria, autophagy and apoptosis in the skeletal muscle [PDF]

, 2019
Cachexia is a wasting syndrome characterized by the continuous loss of skeletal muscle mass due to imbalance between protein synthesis and degradation, which is related with poor prognosis and compromised quality of life.

Circadian Immunity and Vascular Inflammation in Cardiovascular Disease Chronotherapy Windows: Time for a Re‐Assessment

Med Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Circadian rhythms orchestrate cardiovascular physiology by regulating immune and inflammatory pathways. Disruption of these rhythms profoundly alters vascular homeostasis, thereby promoting the onset and progression of cardiovascular diseases (CVD).

Evidence for mechanisms underlying the functional benefits of a myocardial matrix hydrogel for post-MI treatment [PDF]

, 2016
Background There is increasing need for better therapies to prevent the development of heart failure after myocardial infarction (MI). An injectable hydrogel derived from decellularized porcine ventricular myocardium has been shown to halt the post ...

White Adipose Tissue Browning and Cross Talk With Metabolic Diseases and Tumors: From Molecular Mechanisms to Clinical Translation

Med Research, EarlyView.
White adipose tissue undergoes browning under endogenous and exogenous stimuli, primarily regulated by core molecules such as PRDM16 and UCP1. It exhibits a double‐edged sword effect in metabolic diseases and tumors: while mitigating metabolic disease impacts and suppressing early‐stage tumors through nutritional competition, it may accelerate cachexia

Exercise, exerkines, and muscle–brain crosstalk in Parkinson's disease

Neuroprotection, EarlyView.
Abstract Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder with motor and non‐motor symptoms, driven by dopaminergic loss and α‐synuclein accumulation. Beyond neurodegeneration, growing evidence highlights skeletal muscle health as a key determinant of prognosis, with sarcopenia and frailty contributing to greater disability, fall ...

Microglial Activation Under Hypoxic Conditions in Early Alzheimer's Disease: Can Natural SIRT1 Activators Be Therapeutic Allies in the Inflammation–Energy Axis?

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative condition characterized by a preclinical stage that typically lasts for decades. Early on during this time, microglia react to pathological changes and become protective and even transiently delay neurodegeneration.

BRD9 inhibition as potential treatment option for testicular germ cell tumors

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Testicular germ cell tumors (TGCT) are the predominant tumor in younger males. Usually, 5‐year survival rates are quite high, but 15–20% of patients with metastatic non‐seminomas are resistant to standard cisplatin‐based therapy.
