Using high‐gradient diffusion MRI with the SANDI model and HippUnfold for fine‐scale analysis, we detected localized hippocampal aging changes beyond volumetric/thickness reductions. Subiculum and dentate gyrus exhibit significantly reduced soma density/size and increased extracellular space, highlighting subtle microstructural alterations critical for

Sphingolipids are vital components of cell membranes. Metabolic disruptions of sphingolipids, including ceramide and sphingosine‐1‐phosphate, are linked to neurological disorders. This article summarizes the classification, structure, and metabolic processes of sphingolipids, and the physiological and pathological effects of sphingolipid metabolism and

The Halo microglial activation module has not been formally validated in the literature. Comparison of this module with established methods revealed varied performance dependent on tissue thickness, highlighting the need for care to be taken when optimising image analysis parameters. Abstract Phenotypic changes in microglia have been linked to multiple

The figure summarizes the experimental design in which mice received a single intraperitoneal injection of saline, haloperidol, metoclopramide, or L‐NOARG at different doses. Extrapyramidal (EPS) side effects were assessed using the catalepsy test and the Rota‐rod test.

ABSTRACT Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterised by the loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra. In this study, we investigated the neuroprotective and anti‐inflammatory potential of Aesculus hippocastanum (horse chestnut extract, HCE) in an in vitro model of PD.
