Icariin enhances PINK1-associated mitophagy to attenuate NLRP3/GSDMD-related microglial pyroptosis and cognitive impairment in Alzheimer's disease.
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder in which microglia-mediated neuroinflammation contributes to disease progression. Icariin (ICA), a major bioactive flavonoid from Epimedium, has neuroprotective activity, but how it regulates mitochondrial quality control and inflammatory injury in mi...
