Pigment Epithelium‐Derived Factor Deficiency Impairs Hippocampal Glutamate Homeostasis and Cognitive Function by Downregulating Astrocytic GLT‐1

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The chronic glutamate‐induced excitotoxicity hypothesis has profoundly informed the therapeutic strategies employed in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). This study shows pigment epithelium‐derived factor (PEDF) regulates astrocytic glutamate transporter‐1 (GLT‐1)‐mediated glutamate homeostasis and cognition. Reduced PEDF correlates with lower Mini‐Mental State

Vulnerable Carotid Artery Plaques in Asymptomatic Patients—A Narrative Review

open access: yesThe Arab Journal of Interventional Radiology, 2022
Over the last two decades, medical management of carotid artery patients has improved significantly. Most patients remain stable on best medical therapy (BMT), making interventions unnecessary in all patients.

Potentiating Cerebral Perfusion Normalizes Glymphatic Dynamics in Systemic Inflammation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
LPS‐induced systemic inflammation increases glymphatic influx but delays cervical lymphatic drainage, accompanied by AQP4 depolarization and impaired glymphatic clearance. Enhancing cerebral blood flow via the inotropic agent levosimendan effectively restored AQP4 polarization, improving glymphatic flux and amyloid‐β clearance.

A Hypoxia‐Responsive Single‐Atom Sonozyme for Targeted Sonocatalytic Therapy in Alleviating Atherosclerotic Plaque

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A tetranitrogen‐coordinated single‐atom manganese catalyst (SMC) is fabricated with outstanding sonosensitization efficiency and multi‐enzyme‐like catalytic properties. To enable better targeting of M1 macrophages, hyaluronic acid (HA) is applied to modify the surface of SMC, yielding SMC‐HA nanozymes.
