The SNARE machinery is involved in apical plasma membrane trafficking in MDCK cells. [PDF]

, 1998
We have investigated the controversial involvement of components of the SNARE (soluble N-ethyl maleimide-sensitive factor [NSF] attachment protein [SNAP] receptor) machinery in membrane traffic to the apical plasma membrane of polarized epithelial (MDCK)

Calcium-independent inhibitory G-protein signaling induces persistent presynaptic muting of hippocampal synapses [PDF]

, 2011
Adaptive forms of synaptic plasticity that reduce excitatory synaptic transmission in response to prolonged increases in neuronal activity may prevent runaway positive feedback in neuronal circuits.

Traceless Regulation of Genetic Circuitry

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Energy‐based, as opposed to molecular, control offers unprecedented improvements in key circuit parameters. This review summarizes the fundamentals of such traceless switches, categorizes them by trigger modalities, and compares and contrasts distinct advantages as well as shortcomings of each kind.

Neuronal Cholesterol Deficiency Mediated by Astrocytic SREBP2 Downregulation Leads to Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction Through Impairment of Hippocampal Synaptic Plasticity and Excitatory Synaptic Transmission

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The results showed that the reduction of plasma 24‐hydroxycholesterol (24‐OHC) was related to the cognitive decline in elderly surgical patients. Neuroinflammation induced by anesthesia and surgery significantly downregulated SREBP2 in hippocampal reactive astrocytes, resulting in reduced cholesterol synthesis.

Munc18-1: sequential interactions with the fusion machinery stimulate vesicle docking and priming [PDF]

, 2007
Exocytosis of secretory or synaptic vesicles is executed by a mechanism including the SNARE (soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor) proteins.

T Cell Exhaustion in Cancer Immunotherapy: Heterogeneity, Mechanisms, and Therapeutic Opportunities

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
T cell exhaustion limits immunotherapy efficacy. This article delineates its progression from stem‐like to terminally exhausted states, governed by persistent antigen, transcription factors, epigenetics, and metabolism. It maps the exhaustion landscape in the TME and proposes integrated reversal strategies, providing a translational roadmap to overcome

Loss of α-Synuclein Does Not Affect Mitochondrial Bioenergetics in Rodent Neurons. [PDF]

, 2017
Increased α-synuclein (αsyn) and mitochondrial dysfunction play central roles in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD), and lowering αsyn is under intensive investigation as a therapeutic strategy for PD. Increased αsyn levels disrupt mitochondria

Hub genes and diagnostic model associated with mitochondrial function in Alzheimer's disease

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative disorder, and mitochondrial dysfunction has been confirmed in AD patients and mouse models. However, the pathogenic genes associated with AD and early diagnostic methods based on mitochondrial function remain to be explored.

Non‐Synaptic Function and Localization of Syntaxin‐Binding Protein 1 in a Mouse Model of STXBP1‐Related Epileptic Encephalopathy

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective De novo mutations in the syntaxin‐binding protein 1 (STXBP1), encoded by STXBP1, are among the most prevalent causes of variable neurodevelopmental disorders, including epileptic encephalopathy, developmental delay, and movement disorders.
