Reperfusion injury exists as the major obstacle to full recovery of neuron functions after ischemic stroke onset and clinical thrombolytic therapies. Complex cellular cascades including oxidative stress, neuroinflammation, brain vascular impairment occur within neurovascular units, leading microthrombus formation ultimate death. In this work, a multitarget micelle system is developed simultaneously modulate various cell types involved in these events. Briefly, rapamycin encapsulated...

Current strategies for Alzheimer's disease (AD) treatments focus on pathologies in the late stage of progression. Poor clinical outcomes are displayed due to irreversible damages caused by early microglia abnormality which triggers development before identical symptoms emerge. Based crosstalk between and brain microenvironment, a reactive oxygen species (ROS)-responsive polymeric micelle system (Ab-PEG-LysB/curcumin (APLB/CUR)) is reported normalize oxidative inflammatory microenvironment...

Using a valid chronic mild stress (CMS) model of depression, we found that adolescent (postnatal days [PND] 28–41) CMS induced transient alterations in anhedonia did not persist into adulthood after 3-week recovery period. Previously stressed adult rats exhibited more immobility/despair behaviors the forced swimming test and greater number trials to reach criterion set-shifting task, suggesting impaired ability cope with stressors cognitive flexibility allows adaptation dynamic environments...

Abstract Oxidative stress induced by ischemia‐reperfusion causes severe secondary injury in stroke patients. The blood‐brain barrier (BBB) and the challenges targeting core hinder therapeutic effect of drugs. This study introduces a precise biomimetic drug delivery system called SHp‐NM@Edv/RCD (SNM‐NPs), which possesses multiple stepwise capabilities. SNM‐NPs are encapsulated neutrophil membranes (NMs) exhibit (5.16‐fold) on inflammatory microenvironment. modification stroke‐homing peptides...

Abstract Background Pain sensitivity varies across multimodal somatosensory stimuli that can rely on different conductive fibres, which, when damaged, will lead to neuropathies. However, there is limited research examining the characteristics of perceived pain, particularly as affected by ageing process, induced various may small or large fibres. Methods Using heat and pressure fibres separately both younger older adults, this study examined age-associated changes in pain perception...

Stroke, especially ischemic stroke, is an important cause of neurological morbidity and mortality worldwide. Growing evidence suggests that the immune system plays intricate function in pathophysiology stroke. Gelsevirine (Gs), alkaloid from Gelsemium elegans, has been proven to decrease inflammation neuralgia osteoarthritis previously, but its role stroke unknown. In this study, middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) mice model was used evaluate protective effect Gs on administration...

Background: Neuroinflammation plays an important role in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD). Inflammatory cytokines peripheral immune system can induce neuroinflammation central nervous (CNS). Whether is involved PD unclear. The present study investigated contribution to neuronal loss 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine(MPTP) model PD. Methods: MPTP was intraperitoneally injected into mice generate a model. Mice received clodronate liposomes every 3 days deplete...

Early stress is a significant risk factor for the onset of mood disorders such as depression during adulthood. Impairments in cognitive flexibility mediated by prefrontal cortex (PFC) dysfunction are increasingly recognized important etiological and pathological factors development depression. Our previous study demonstrated that social defeat early adolescence produced delayed deficits adult mice. The potential molecular mechanisms underlying these long-term consequences remain unclear. One...

Radiation-induced brain injury is a major adverse event in head and neck tumor treatment, influencing the quality of life for more than 50% patients who undergo radiation therapy experience long-term survival. However, no effective treatments are available these patients, preventative drugs drug-delivery methods must be developed. Based on our results, miR-122-5p was upregulated mouse radiation-induced (RBI) model with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) received therapy. Intranasal...
