Molecular Mechanisms of Neurodegeneration Related to C9orf72 Hexanucleotide Repeat Expansion by Mirjana Babić Leko, Vera Župunski, Jason Kirincich, Dinko Smilović, Tibor Hortobágyi, Patrick R. Hof, Goran Šimić

“…The neuropathological correlate of FTD is frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD), characterized by tau-, TDP-43-, and FUS-immunoreactive neuronal inclusions. An earlier discovery that a hexanucleotide repeat expansion mutation in chromosome 9 open reading frame 72 (C9orf72) gene causes ALS and FTD established a special subtype of ALS and FTLD with TDP-43 pathology (C9FTD/ALS). …”

An ultrasonic degraded polysaccharide extracted from Pueraria lobata ameliorate ischemic brain injury in mice by regulating the gut microbiota and LPS-TLR4 pathway by Yulong Zhang, Zuman Dou, Shanshan Li, Huaying Zhang, Shanshui Zeng, Xiangyu Zuo, Yu Xiao, Lingling Zhang, Zhixin Li, Qingfeng Zhu, Wenyang Zhang, Hui Niu, Qingfei Duan, Xiaoxia Chen, Zhuang Li, Hongwei Zhou, Qian Wang

“…The results demonstrated that PLP-3 effectively reduced the infarct area, improves neurological function, and alleviates neuronal damage of cerebral ischemia injury. Mechanistically, PLP-3 significantly reduces serum LPS levels in MCAO mice, inhibiting TLR-4 activation in brain tissue and thereby reducing IL-1β and TNF-α levels. …”

Hot and cold exposure triggers distinct transcriptional and behavioral responses in laboratory-inbred pond snails by Veronica Rivi, Anuradha Batabyal, Cristina Benatti, Fabio Tascedda, Johanna Maria Catharina Blom, Ken Lukowiak

“…The difference in memory outcomes was associated with changes in the expression levels of selected targets involved in neuronal plasticity and the stress response. While both cold and heat shock upregulated the HSP levels in the snail's central ring ganglia, cold exposure did not affect the expression levels of the neuroplasticity genes LymGRIN1 and LymCREB1, contrasting with heat shock's neurogenic effects. …”
