Emerging evidence indicates that CSVD is not merely a coexisting vascular condition but an active amplifier of neurodegeneration, operating through a self-perpetuating cascade of microvascular injury, blood–brain barrier (BBB) breakdown, and glymphatic system dysfunction. In this hypothesis-driven review, we propose the Integrated Vascular–Neurodegenerative Continuum, a mechanistic model in which vascular pathology triggers and accelerates neurodegeneration via intersecting pathways, including chronic cerebral hypoperfusion, oxidative stress, and APOE ε4–associated endothelial vulnerability. We synthesize molecular, imaging, and genetic evidence supporting this continuum, highlighting novel diagnostic and therapeutic targets such as peak skeletonized mean diffusivity, dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging–based BBB leakage quantification, and emerging agents like cilostazol and allopurinol. We also critically appraise the limitations of current diagnostic frameworks and advocate for integrative, multimodal approaches to risk stratification. This model offers a unifying framework that bridges cerebrovascular and neurodegenerative domains, offering a foundation for precision medicine strategies aimed at dementia prevention and treatment.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":11993,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Neuroscience","volume":"62 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2025-09-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144998913","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Within MS lesions, oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPCs) differentiate into mature myelinating oligodendrocytes and mediate repair. A further understanding of the molecular mechanisms responsible for OPC differentiation will undoubtedly influence the direction of future treatments in MS. In MS lesions, several distinct microRNAs have been previously demonstrated to influence both inflammatory and repair mechanisms, including OPC differentiation and survival. Specifically, miR-146b-5p is an anti-inflammatory microRNA that is upregulated in white matter astrocytes within active MS lesions. Our results demonstrate that increasing miR-146b-5p levels within pure primary human and murine astrocytes significantly decreases IL-6 and CXCL10 production upon IL-1β stimulation, an effect not observed in mixed glial cultures containing microglia. In addition, the inhibitory effects of IL-1β on OPC differentiation and complexity were reversed when miR-146b-5p levels were increased in astrocytes; no differences were observed in the presence of microglia. In astrocytes, the increase in miR-146b-5p levels led to a significant reduction in <i>traf6</i> and <i>irak1</i> expression, which are two critical signaling molecules known to enhance the pro-inflammatory activity of astrocytes. Together, these results suggest that miR-146b-5p is an MS-relevant microRNA that regulates astrocyte function in a manner that fosters OPC growth and morphological complexity. Furthermore, our results further demonstrate the need to consider the complex glial–glial interactions occurring within MS lesions and its overall influence on cellular and molecular mechanisms related to CNS injury and repair.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":11993,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Neuroscience","volume":"62 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2025-09-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144997906","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, it remains unclear how these neural circuits differentially support performance on C and no-C tasks in individuals with ADHD. To address this question, we conducted a meta-analysis using the activation likelihood estimation (ALE) method. We included the available functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies (<i>N</i> = 30) examining children and adolescents with ADHD during C and no-C response inhibition tasks. Across both task types, ADHD participants consistently engaged a fronto-striatal circuit comprising the inferior frontal gyrus (IFG), anterior cingulate cortex (ACC), and caudate nuclei. When the analysis was restricted on C tasks, activation was primarily observed in the right IFG. In contrast, no-C tasks elicited activation in the left caudate nucleus, with the additional involvement of the right caudate and ACC during successful response inhibition (i.e., correct performance).

We characterize local field potentials of the medial pulvinar associated with these stimuli. In the temporal domain, we describe an early and a late period showing multisensory integration, both dominated by sub-additive processes (the audiovisual response is inferior to the sum of the unisensory responses).

Although SLN has been extensively studied, due to technical difficulties, most data were obtained during fictive locomotion, and data about the activity of spinal neurons during locomotion with intact sensory feedback from limbs are extremely limited. Here, we overcame the technical problems and recorded the activity of putative spinal interneurons from spinal segments L4–L6 during treadmill forward locomotion evoked by stimulation of the mesencephalic locomotor region in the decerebrate cat. We found that neurons were activated and inactivated preferably within one of the four phase ranges presumably related to preparation for the limb lift-off, the limb lift-off, transition from the limb flexion to limb extension during swing, and the limb touch-down. We analyzed the activity phases of recorded interneurons by using a new method that took into account the previously ignored information about the stability of neuronal modulation in the sequential locomotor cycles. We suggested that neurons with stable modulation (i.e., small dispersion of their activity phase in sequential cycles) represent the core of SLN. Our analysis revealed groups of neurons active approximately out of phase and presumably contributing to the control of vertical (VC) and horizontal (HC) components of the step. We found that most VC- and HC-related neurons were located in the intermediate and dorsal/ventral parts of the grey matter, respectively.
