TL;DR

In aged POCD mice, knockdown of SLC6A2 improved cognitive performance and reduced neuroinflammation, oxidative stress, and excessive mitophagy, and Targeting SLC6A2 may represent a potential therapeutic strategy for POCD.

Camk2d upregulation is associated with postoperative cognitive dysfunction in aged rats: pharmacological inhibition of CaMKII attenuates hippocampal neuroinflammation and neuronal apoptosis

Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is a common complication in elderly patients after major surgery. It delays postoperative recovery and increases the risk of neurodegenerative disorders. CaMKIIδ is a key calcium-signaling regulator of neuronal survival and neuroinflammation, yet its functional role in P...

IGF2BP2 stabilizes SLC39A14 mRNA via m6A modification to promote ferroptosis in cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury.

Cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury (CIRI) is a leading cause of neurological disability with few effective therapeutic strategies, and ferroptosis has been proven to participate in CIRI progression while its upstream regulatory mechanisms remain poorly defined. Herein, we performed transcriptomic analysis on GSE16207...

α7nAChR alleviates cognitive impairment by promoting autophagy in astrocytes via CaMKK2/AMPK/mTOR pathway in sepsis-associated encephalopathy

Background Sepsis-associated encephalopathy (SAE) is a syndrome of cerebral dysfunction secondary to sepsis. Although the α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (α7nAChR) plays a pivotal role in the SAE, the specific mechanisms by which it mediates neuroinflammatory responses and contributes to pathological injury in SAE...

AMPKα1 activation enhances mitophagy to counteract hypoxia-induced neuronal apoptosis in cervical spondylotic myelopathy and facilitates functional recovery mediated by rosmarinic acid.

BACKGROUND Cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM) involves progressive neurological dysfunction often linked to mitochondrial impairment. Mitophagy, a selective autophagic process, is crucial for neuronal homeostasis; however, its role in CSM and the specific involvement of AMPK subunits in TFEB-mediated mitophagy remai...

Notoginsenoside R1 attenuates post-ischemic pyroptosis: a novel CKLF1-endoplasmic reticulum stress pathway-mediated mechanism.

BACKGROUND Ischemic stroke induces neuronal pyroptosis driven by excessive endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, which exacerbates secondary brain injury. Notoginsenoside R1 (NGR1) has demonstrated neuroprotective properties; however, whether its mechanism involves the modulation of chemokine-like factor 1 (CKLF1)-mediate...
