To understand how α-syn pathology affects cortico-striatal synapses at early time points before significant dopamine neuron loss, pre-formed α-syn fibrils (PFF) were injected into the striatum to induce endogenous α-syn aggregation in corticostriatal-projecting neurons. Electrophysiological recordings of striatal spiny projection neurons (SPNs) from acute slices found a significant decrease in evoked corticostriatal glutamate release and corticostriatal synaptic release sites in mice with PFF-induced aggregates compared to monomer injected mice. Expansion microscopy, confocal microscopy and Imaris reconstructions were used to identify VGLUT1 positive presynaptic terminals juxtaposed to Homer1 positive postsynaptic densities, termed synaptic loci. Quantitation of synaptic loci density revealed an early loss of corticostriatal synapses. Immunoblots of the striatum showed reductions in expression of pre-synaptic proteins VGLUT1, VAMP2 and Snap25, in mice with α-syn aggregates compared to controls. Paradoxically, a small percentage of remaining VGLUT1+ synaptic loci positive for pS129-α-syn aggregates showed enlarged volumes compared to nearby synapses without α-syn aggregates. Our combined physiology and high-resolution imaging data point to an early loss of corticostriatal synapses in mice harboring α-synuclein inclusions, which may contribute to impaired basal ganglia circuitry in PD and DLB.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":19097,"journal":{"name":"Neurobiology of Disease","volume":"210 ","pages":"Article 106918"},"PeriodicalIF":5.1,"publicationDate":"2025-04-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143860428","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The triple-component cell death pathways set themselves apart from alternative regulated cell death mechanisms through their unique capacity to concurrently integrate and process molecular signals derived from multiple death-signaling modalities, thereby coordinating a multifaceted cellular defense system against diverse pathological insults. Pathogen-associated molecular patterns synergistically interact with cytokine storms, and oncogenic stress to active PANoptosis, establishing this programmed cell death pathway as a critical nexus in inflammatory pathogenesis and tumor immunomodulation. This molecular crosstalk highlights PANoptosis as a promising therapeutic target for managing immune-related disorders and malignant transformation. Emerging evidence links PANoptosis to neuroinflammatory disorders through dysregulated crosstalk between programmed death pathways (apoptosis, necroptosis, pyroptosis) and accidental necrosis, driving neuronal loss and neural damage. Single-cell transcriptomics reveals spatially resolved PANoptosis signatures in Alzheimer's hippocampal microenvironments and multiple sclerosis demyelinating plaques, with distinct molecular clusters correlating to quantifiable neuroinflammatory metrics. Emerging PANoptosis-targeted therapies show preclinical promise in alleviating neurovascular dysfunction while preserving physiological microglial surveillance functions. Accumulating evidence linking dysregulated cell death pathways (particularly PANoptosis) to neurological disorders underscores the urgency of deciphering its molecular mechanisms and developing precision modulators as next-generation therapies. This review systematically deciphers PANoptosome assembly mechanisms and associated cell death cascades, evaluates their pathological roles in neurological disorders through multiscale regulatory networks, and proposes PANoptosis-targeted therapeutic frameworks to advance precision neurology.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":19097,"journal":{"name":"Neurobiology of Disease","volume":"209 ","pages":"Article 106907"},"PeriodicalIF":5.1,"publicationDate":"2025-04-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143829797","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the transcriptome variances associated with sex in AD remain unclear.</div></div><div><h3>Methods</h3><div>RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) and transcriptomic analyses were performed on peripheral blood samples from total of 54 patients, including male AD patients (<em>n</em> = 15), female AD patients (<em>n</em> = 10), male MCI patients (<em>n</em> = 7), female MCI patients (<em>n</em> = 11), male healthy controls (<em>n</em> = 6), female healthy controls (<em>n</em> = 5). The snRNA-seq dataset (GSE167494, GSE157827) of prefrontal cortex tissues was obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO). We conducted an investigation into differentially expressed genes and pathways in the peripheral blood cells as well as prefrontal cortex tissues of both male and female AD patients with consideration to sex-related factors. Additionally, we analyzed the distribution and characteristics of cells in the cerebral cortex as well as the interaction and communication between cells of male and female AD patients. Connectivity Map (CMap) was utilized for predicting and screening potential sex-specific drugs for AD.</div></div><div><h3>Results</h3><div>The transcriptome profile and associated biological processes in the peripheral blood of male and female AD and MCI patients exhibit discernible differences, including upregulation of BASP1 in AD male patients and arousing TNS1 in AD female patients. The distribution of various cell types in the prefrontal cortex tissues differs between male and female AD patients, like neuron and oligodendrocyte decreased and endothelial cell and astrocyte increased in female compared with male, while a multitude of genes exhibit significant differential expression. The results of cell communication analysis, such as collagen signaling pathway, suggest that sex disparities impact intercellular interactions within prefrontal cortex tissues among individuals with AD. By drug repositioning, several drugs, including torin-2 and YM-298198, might have the potential to therapeutic value of MCI or AD, while drugs like homoharringtonine and teniposide have potential opposite effects in different sexes.</div></div><div><h3>Conclusion</h3><div>The characteristics of the transcriptome in peripheral blood and single-cell transcriptome in the prefrontal cortex exhibit significant differences between male and female patients with AD, which providing a basis for future sex stratified treatment of AD.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":19097,"journal":{"name":"Neurobiology of Disease","volume":"210 ","pages":"Article 106909"},"PeriodicalIF":5.1,"publicationDate":"2025-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143842541","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
