Owing to the narrow therapeutic window, effective treatments during the recovery period are limited. However, in recent years, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have attracted attention and have shown therapeutic potential in IS treatment because of their abilities to home and secrete multiple bioactive substances and potential for differentiation and substitution. The therapeutic mechanisms of MSCs in IS include the regulatory effects of MSCs on microglia, the dual role of MSCs in astrocytes, how MSCs connect innate and adaptive immunity, the secretion of cytokines by MSCs to counteract apoptosis and MSC apoptosis, the promotion of angiogenesis by MSCs to favor the restoration of the blood‒brain barrier (BBB), and the potential function of local neural replacement by MSCs. However, the low graft survival rate, insufficient homing, poor targeting, and inability to achieve directional differentiation of MSCs limit their wide application. As an approach to compensate for the shortcomings of MSCs, scientists have used nanomaterials to assist MSCs in homing, survival and proliferation. In addition, the unique material of nanomaterials adds tracking, imaging and real-time monitoring to stroke treatment.

A significant challenge, beyond the lack of effective therapies, is the frequent oversight of sex as a vital factor in stroke research. This study focuses on elucidating the sex-specific epigenetic mechanisms that contribute to neural damage and recovery in cerebral ischemia. In our previously reported study, we demonstrated that following ischemia-induced cerebral artery occlusion (ICAO), female striatal tissue exhibited an early reinstatement of H3K9me2 marks on the promoters of inflammatory genes compared to male striatal tissue. This restoration led to a reduction in the expression of inflammatory cytokines, ultimately contributing to accelerated recovery in females. Building upon these findings, the current study aimed to investigate the unidentified molecular pathways responsible for the accelerated recovery observed in females. To explore this, we performed illumina-RNA sequencing on striatal tissues 24-h post-ICAO. Interestingly, our analysis revealed differential regulation of H3K27me2 marks on the promoters of various neurogenic genes at an early stage, which facilitated early neurogenesis in the female striatum. This investigation identifies an epigenetic modulator, kdm6b/jmjd3, targeting H3K27, and delineates its sex-specific role in neural stem cell proliferation. The findings contribute to a comprehensive model linking gender-specific epigenetic regulation, neurogenesis, and post-ICAO recovery.

The underlying mechanisms involve the downregulation of autophagy levels and a concurrent decrease in lysosomal function after inhibition of STAT3. Additionally, we observed inhibition of STAT3 resulted in reduced exosome secretion in SVG p12 cells. This is attributed to alterations in SNARE, leading to impaired fusion between MVBs and the cell membrane, subsequently causing the accumulation of intracellular MVBs.

Recovery from nerve damage and neurodegenerative diseases present a significant challenge, as the central nervous system (CNS) has limited capacity for self-repair. Investigating mechanism of neurodegeneration and regeneration is essential for advancing our understanding and development of effective therapies for nerve damage and degenerative conditions, which can significantly enhance patient outcomes. Collapsin response mediator protein 2 (CRMP2) was first identified as a key mediator of axonal growth and guidance is essential for neurogenesis and neuroregeneration. Phosphorylation as a primary modification approach of CRMP2 facilitates its involvement in numerous physiological processes, including axonal guidance, neuroplasticity, and cytoskeleton dynamics. Prior research on CRMP2 phosphorylation has elucidated its involvement in the mechanisms of neurodegenerative diseases and nerve damage. Pharmacological and genetic interventions that alter CRMP2 phosphorylation have shown the potential to influence neurodegenerative diseases and promote nerve regeneration. Even with decades of research delving into the intricacies of CRMP2 phosphorylation, there remains a scarcity of comprehensive literature reviews addressing this topic. This absence of synthesis and integration of findings hampers the field's progress by preventing a holistic understanding of CRMP2's implications in neurobiology, thereby impeding potential advancements in clinical treatments and interventions.

The current research aims to demonstrate the specific expression patterns of lncRNA-mRNA in the hippocampi of T2D db/db mice exhibiting cognitive impairment. In this study, the results from behavioral tests showed that T2D db/db mice displayed short-term and spatial working memory deficits compared to db/m mice. Furthermore, western blot analysis demonstrated that compared with db/m mice, p-GSK3β (ser9) protein levels were markedly elevated in T2D db/db mice (P < 0.01). In addition, though not statistically significant, the ratio of p-Tau (Ser396) to Tau 46, α-Synuclein expression, and p-GSK3α (ser21) expression were also relatively higher in T2D db/db mice than in db/m mice. The microarray profiling revealed that 75 lncRNAs and 26 mRNAs were dysregulated in T2D db/db mice (> 2.0 fold change, P < 0.05). GO analysis demonstrated that the differentially expressed mRNAs participated in immune response, extracellular membrane-bounded organelle, and extracellular region. KEGG analysis revealed that the differentially expressed mRNAs were mainly involved in one carbon pool by folate, glyoxylate and dicarboxylate metabolism, autophagy, glycine, serine and threonine metabolism, and B cell receptor signaling pathway. A lncRNA‑mRNA coexpression network containing 71 lncRNAs and 26 mRNAs was built to investigate the interaction between lncRNA and mRNA. Collectively, these results revealed the differential hippocampal expression profiles of lncRNAs in T2D mice with cognitive dysfunction, and the findings from this study provide new clues for exploring the potential roles of lncRNAs in the pathogenesis of cognitive dysfunction in T2D.</p>","PeriodicalId":19304,"journal":{"name":"NeuroMolecular Medicine","volume":"26 1","pages":"42"},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2024-10-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142546569","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}
