The pathogenesis of IS is associated with various metabolic disorders. Yet reports on the amelioration of neuroinflammation by modulating metabolic disorders in clinical practice are scarce. By screening drugs targeting the inflammatory cytokine pro IL-1β in the metabolism-related compound library, we first found that clofibrate, an antihyperlipidemic drug, has an anti-neuroinflammatory effect. However, the role of clofibrate in exerting anti-inflammatory effects in IS and its underlying mechanisms remain unclear. To further investigate the role of clofibrate, we administered clofibrate in an LPS-stimulated microglial cell model and in mice with transient middle cerebral artery occlusion. Notably, clofibrate lowered IL-1β expression, both in vivo and in vitro. Simultaneously, clofibrate reduced infarct volume after ischemia and reperfusion. Moreover, clofibrate affected IS by regulating the expression of NF-κB p65 and NLRP3, thus suppressing the expression of inflammatory factors. These findings suggest that clofibrate could be a prospective medication to alleviate neuroinflammation in IS.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":19142,"journal":{"name":"Neuroscience","volume":"577 ","pages":"Pages 144-153"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-05-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144005910","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}

The most conserved SRP protein component, SRP54, has been implicated in the molecular etiology of spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). A key feature of SMA is the selective loss of motor neurons; however, the mechanism underlying this selectivity is unknown. SMA arises from deficient levels of the ubiquitously expressed Survival of Motor Neuron (SMN) protein. SMN is proposed to assemble the SRP, and SMN deficiency in SMA may attenuate SRP function and contribute to motor neuron death in patients. Using zebrafish embryos homozygous for a <em>srp54</em> nonsense mutation (<em>srp54<sup>-/-</sup></em>), we investigated the requirement of Srp54 protein in motor axon development. The first grossly distinguishable phenotype observed in <em>srp54<sup>-/-</sup></em> embryos was reduced motility at 30 h postfertilization (hpf). Additionally, we detected reduced length and branching of caudal primary motor axons in <em>srp54<sup>-/-</sup></em> embryos compared to <em>srp54<sup>+/+</sup></em> and <em>srp54<sup>+/-</sup></em> siblings at 30 hpf, suggesting that defective motor neurons may contribute to the observed immotility. We also examined additional neural, secretory, and migratory cell types at 30 hpf to assess whether motor neurons are especially vulnerable to Srp54 deficiency. Of the cell types evaluated, only the hatching gland had distinct expression pattern alterations in <em>srp54<sup>-/-</sup></em> embryos at this developmental stage.

This review synthesizes preclinical and clinical research on VNS, highlighting its mechanisms, applications, and challenges in stroke treatment. VNS influences key neurophysiological processes, including anti-inflammatory responses mediated by the α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor, modulation of apoptotic pathways, reduction of oxidative stress, and enhancement of neuroplasticity and angiogenesis. Importantly, VNS exerts significant effects on glial cells, particularly microglia and astrocytes, which are crucial for neuroinflammation modulation and neural repair. Clinical evidence supports the use of VNS in improving motor function, cognitive performance, and emotional well-being, with significant benefits noted when VNS is combined with task-specific training. Despite these promising findings, variability in patient response, optimal stimulation parameters, and long-term efficacy remain areas for further investigation. Identifying biomarkers and refining stimulation protocols are crucial to tailoring VNS treatment and maximizing therapeutic outcomes.
