However, the specific mechanisms behind the contrasting functions of T cells in the brain and peripheral tissues after a stroke remain unclear and require further investigation. T-cell receptors (TCRs) are essential in controlling how T lymphocytes develop and become active. This study aims to gain a deeper understanding of the biological function of T lymphocytes by analyzing the TCR repertoire in patients who have experienced an acute ischemic stroke (AIS). High-throughput TCR sequencing was conducted on peripheral blood samples from 25 AIS patients and 10 healthy controls. We compared the percentage of T cells and the characteristics of the TCR repertoire, specifically focusing on the recombination of V(D)J gene fragments and the diversity of the complementarity determining region 3 (CDR3) of the Vβ gene. Additionally, this study analyzed the potential biological significance of the skewed TCR repertoire in AIS patients. In patients with AIS, the proportion of circulating lymphocytes (LY%) decreased while the systemic immune-inflammatory index (SII) increased compared to healthy controls. The average number of TCR read pairs decreased, corresponding with the presence of lymphopenia. However, the recombination of V(D)J gene fragments, the number of CDR3 clonotypes, and the diversity of CDR3 was elevated in the peripheral blood of AIS patients. Furthermore, the increased number of CDR3 amino acid or nucleotide clonotypes was negatively correlated with neurologic deficits but positively correlated with AIS patients' systemic immune condition and functional outcomes. Our findings suggest that both immunosuppression and enhanced antigen-specific T-cell response may exist in the periphery of the AIS patients. Further investigation into the mechanisms underlying these opposing changes may lead to the discovery of novel targets to reverse immunosuppression or mitigate the detrimental effects of T cells in the lesioned brain of AIS patients.</p>","PeriodicalId":16527,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Neurochemistry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2024-10-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142502352","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Myelin damage in diseases such as multiple sclerosis (MS) and ischemia induces activation of endogenous oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPC) and subsequent remyelination by newly formed oligodendrocytes. It has been shown that human-induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSC)-derived OPCs promote remyelination when transplanted to the brains of disease models. Here, we ask whether and how puerarin is beneficial to the generation of hiPSC-derived OPCs and oligodendrocytes, and to the endogenous remyelination in mouse demyelination model. Our results show that puerarin increases the proportion of O4+ pre-oligodendrocytes differentiated from iPSC-derived neural stem cells. In vitro, puerarin increases proliferation of rat OPCs and enhances mitochondrial activity. Treatment of puerarin at progenitor stage increases the yielding of differentiated oligodendrocytes. In rat organotypic brain slice culture, puerarin promotes both myelination and remyelination. In vivo, puerarin increases oligodendrocyte repopulation during remyelination in mouse spinal cord following lysolethicin-induced demyelination.

In this study, we reveal NET is palmitoylated in male Sprague-Dawley rats and Lilly Laboratory Cell Porcine Kidney (LLC-PK<sub>1</sub>) cells. S-palmitoylation, or the addition of a 16-carbon saturated fatty acid, is a reversible post-translational modification responsible for the regulation of numerous biological mechanisms. We found that LLC-PK<sub>1</sub> NET is dynamically palmitoylated, and that inhibition with the palmitoyl acyltransferase (DHHC) inhibitor, 2-bromopalmitate (2BP) results in decreased NET palmitoylation within 90 min of treatment. This result was followed closely by a reduction in transport capacity, cell surface, and total cellular NET expression after 120 min of treatment. Increasing 2BP concentrations and treatment time revealed a nearly complete loss of total NET protein. Co-expression with individual DHHCs revealed a single DHHC enzyme, DHHC1, promoted wild-type (WT) hNET palmitoylation and elevated NET protein levels. The POTS-associated NET mutant, A457P, exhibits dramatically decreased transport capacity and cell surface levels which we have confirmed in the current study. In an attempt to recover A457P NET expression, we co-expressed the A457P variant with DHHC1 to drive expression as seen with the WT protein but instead saw an increase in NET N-terminal immuno-detectable forms and fragments. Elimination of a potential palmitoylation site at cysteine 44 in the N-terminal tail of hNET resulted in a low expression phenotype mimicking the A457P hNET variant. Further investigation of A457P NET palmitoylation and surface expression is necessary, but our preliminary novel findings reveal palmitoylation as a mechanism of NET regulation and suggest that dysregulation of this process may contribute to the pathogenesis of adrenergic disorders like POTS.</p>","PeriodicalId":16527,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Neurochemistry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2024-10-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142467933","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Tissue repair following TBI is tightly regulated by microglia, promoting or, importantly, preventing astrocyte-mediated repair processes, depending on the activation state of the neuroimmune cells. This study investigated the poorly understood mechanism linking proinflammatory microglia activation and astrocyte-mediated tissue repair using an in vitro mechanical injury model in mixed cortical cultures of rat neurons and glia. We hypothesized that proinflammatory activation disrupts the microglial response to colony-stimulating factor 1 (CSF-1), which stimulates microglia migration and proliferation, both essential for astrocyte-mediated tissue repair. Following mechanical damage, cultures were treated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and interferon-gamma (IFNγ) to induce a proinflammatory state. Immunocytochemical and biochemical analyses were used to evaluate glial repair. Proinflammatory activation dramatically impeded wound closure, reducing microglial levels via upregulation of the zinc-dependent disintegrin and metalloprotease 17 (ADAM17), leading to the cleavage of the CSF-1 receptor (CSF-1R). Indeed, pharmacological inhibition of ADAM17 effectively promoted wound closure during inflammation. Moreover, zinc chelation prevented ADAM17-mediated cleavage of CSF-1R and induced the release of trophic factors, dramatically improving tissue recovery. Our findings strongly identify ADAM17 as a primary regulator of CSF-1R-mediated signaling and establish a mechanism defining the association between pro-inflammatory microglial activation and tissue repair following injury.</p>","PeriodicalId":16527,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Neurochemistry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2024-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142467934","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In zebrafish, transient loss of nr4a2 was previously shown to decrease tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) expression and impair locomotion. To further characterize the roles of the two zebrafish nr4a2 paralogs, nr4a2a, and nr4a2b, we produced targeted loss-of-function mutants and examined DAnergic neuron regeneration, oxidative respiration, and behavioral traits. The loss of nr4a2a function more closely recapitulated Parkinsonian phenotypes and affected neurotrophic factor gene expression. Conversely, nr4a2b mutants displayed behavioral symptoms reminiscent of mice deficient in Nr4a2 with increased neurotrophic output. In contrast, nr4a2b mutants also displayed increased metabolic input from non-mitochondrial sources indicative of high cytosolic reactive oxygen species and perturbed mitochondrial function. The nr4a2a mutants also showed increased maximal respiration, which may suggest a compensatory mechanism to meet the metabolic requirements of DAnergic neuron health.
