An in vitro Alzheimer's model was created with Aβ-induced toxicity in mouse hippocampal neuronal cells (HT-22). Aβ(1-42)-exposed cells were treated with different concentrations of CDELNs (1-50 μg/ml) and the viability of cells was analyzed. The change in the mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm) of cells was also determined. CDELNs treatment increased the viability of Aβ(1-42 )-toxicity-induced HT-22 cells significantly. The increase in the viability of Aβ(1-42)-toxicity-induced cells was correlated with an improvement in ΔΨm. CDELNs treatment restored the dissipated ΔΨm. These results suggested that CDELNs protect neuronal cells against Aβ(1-42)-induced neurotoxicity by repairing mitochondrial dysfunction. CDELNs might be a useful neuroprotective agent for the treatment or prevention of Aβ-induced AD.

Investigating the role of HMGB1 in the creation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) and the mechanism of its impact on macrophages could provide novel insights into intervening in intestinal inflammation and barrier damage. Therefore, the research examined the relationship between the macrophage polarization phenotype and HMGB1. Additionally, we analyzed how cell proliferation and cytokines changed in CaCo-2 cells following co-culture with HMGB1-influenced macrophages and intestinal epithelial CaCo-2 cells. We discovered that up-regulation of HMGB1 expression enhanced the creation of NETs, whereas inhibition of NETs formation led macrophages to switch from the anti-inflammatory M2 phenotype to the pro-inflammatory M1 phenotype. Additionally, we observed that macrophages induced by NETs containing HMGB1 can prompt CaCo-2 cell apoptosis and exacerbate the inflammatory response. HMGB1-containing NETs hinder tight junction protein expression in CaCo-2 cells by inducing macrophage M1 polarization, thereby impairing intestinal epithelial barrier function. Therefore, our findings indicate that by inhibiting the expression of HMGB1, the formation of NETs can be inhibited.

This investigation aimed to elucidate miR-10a activity in SCI and its potential interaction with sirtuin 1 (SIRT1). The SCI rat model was established to assess hind limb movement, measure levels of miR-10a, SIRT1, neuronal survival, and inflammatory factors. An in-vitro SCI cell model was also developed to evaluate cell viability and inflammatory factor levels. The interaction between miR10a and SIRT1 was verified. Upregulated miR-10a and downregulated SIRT1 expression were found in the tissues of SCI rats. miR-10a knockdown in SCI rats enhanced the recovery of motor function, increased neuronal survival, and reduced the levels of inflammatory cytokines. Luciferase reporter assays confirmed that miR-10a targeted SIRT1 directly. In PC12 cells, downregulation of miR-10a increased SIRT1 expression, enhanced cell viability, and reduced inflammatory factor levels after LPS stimulation. Conversely, SIRT1 knockdown inhibited the protective effects of downregulated miR-10a on cell viability and inflammatory responses. The results suggest that miR-10a downregulation protects against SCI by upregulating SIRT1 expression, improving functional recovery, and reducing inflammation.
