Microglial States Are Susceptible to Senescence and Cholesterol Dysregulation in Alzheimer's Disease
Senescent microglia in Alzheimer's disease exhibit dysregulated cholesterol metabolism and express Disease‐Associated Microglia (DAM) signatures, including inflammatory and phagocytic markers. Single‐nucleus RNA‐seq from human brain tissues identified cholesterol‐related senescence gene co‐expression modules linked to microglial senescence.

CRISPR-edited human ES-derived oligodendrocyte progenitor cells improve remyelination in rodents
In Multiple Sclerosis (MS), inflammatory demyelinated lesions in the brain and spinal cord lead to neurodegeneration and progressive disability. Remyelination can restore fast saltatory conduction and neuroprotection but is inefficient in MS especially ...

P2X4 receptor controls microglia activation and favors remyelination in autoimmune encephalitis
Microglia survey the brain microenvironment for signals of injury or infection and are essential for the initiation and resolution of pathogen‐ or tissue damage‐induced inflammation.

Synthetic microneurotrophins: Neurotrophin receptors for therapeutics of neurodegenerative diseases
Neurodegenerative disorders are characterised by the chronic progressive degeneration of specific neuronal subtypes, neuroinflammation, myelin damage and synaptic loss. Despite their growing incidence, advancements in effective treatments remain limited, because of lack of knowledge for the aetiology of the diverse pathophysiology to design systematic ...

Systemic TLR2 tolerance enhances central nervous system remyelination
Background Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a central nervous system (CNS) autoimmune disease characterized by both inflammatory demyelination and impaired remyelination.

Promoting remyelination in multiple sclerosis
The greatest unmet need in multiple sclerosis (MS) are treatments that delay, prevent or reverse progression. One of the most tractable strategies to achieve this is to therapeutically enhance endogenous remyelination; doing so restores nerve conduction ...

Tyro3 deletion is protective in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis
Multiple sclerosis pathogenesis involves the complex interplay between the peripheral immune response and the central nervous system. Gas6 is a promising therapy to promote remyelination; however, Gas6 and its receptors (the TAM receptor family) are widely expressed in both immune cells and the central nervous system. Our study demonstrates that global

Dynamic response of microglia/macrophage polarization following demyelination in mice
Background The glial response in multiple sclerosis (MS), especially for recruitment and differentiation of oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPCs), predicts the success of remyelination of MS plaques and return of function.
