Chronic stress exacerbates glucocorticoid-dependent atrophic changes in the aging brain, increases neuroinflammation and neurological dysfunction, and is a key risk factor for Alzheimer’s disease. In the correction of aseptic neuroinflammation in elderly and senile patients, the use of anti-inflammatory agents that exhibit anti-glucocorticoid (pro-anabolic) and anti-glutamate (anti-excitotoxic) effects is pathogenetically justified. Succinate/SUCNR1 signalling is involved in the development of immunomodulatory, trophic, and anti-hypoxic effects; however, its role in the mechanisms of stress response remains unexplored. The aim of this study was to assay the impact of succinate/SUCNR1 signalling on the development of stress-induced neuroinflammation in the cerebral cortex of old rats. The work was performed on outbred albino male rats aged 18 months. Chronic restraint stress was modelled by immobilizing animals in individual plastic cases for 6 h daily for 5 days. Mexidol (2-ethyl-6-methyl-3-hydroxypyridine (EMHP) succinate) was used as a form of succinate that crosses the blood-brain barrier.

It was shown that chronic immobilization stress caused an increase in the level of IL-1β and TNF-α during stress, which was accompanied by a decrease in the content of anti-inflammatory cytokines, SUCNR1, GRα, PGC-1α. The course administration of EMHP succinate limited the development of stress-induced neuroinflammation in the CC of old rats and prevented a decrease in the levels of SUCNR1, IL-10, TGF-β1, PGC-1α, and GRα.

In the present study, performed on rat myocyte culture, the effect of exogenous GABA on the process of fusion of myocytes into myotubes was investigated by analyzing such a morphometric indicator as the “fusion index”. The addition of the amino acid to the culture led to a significant concentration-dependent inhibition (up to a complete cessation) of the formation of myotubes. GABA<sub>A</sub> receptors and GABA transporters (GAT-2) were considered among possible proteins capable of mediating the effect of amino acids. Evidence of the presence of these proteins on cultured cells was obtained using immunohistochemical methods. The blockade of GABA receptors by gabazine did not affect the fusion index in any way, and GABA continued to exert inhibitory effect in its presence. Inhibition of GABA transporters by nipecotic acid reduced the myocyte fusion index; however, the GABA effect was no longer present under the action of the transporter blocker. The data obtained are consistent with the hypothesis about the participation of the amino acid GABA at the early stages of skeletal muscle development; it suggests that the inhibitory effect of the exogenous amino acid may be due to an increase in its concentration in the sarcoplasm, since both the addition of a GABA transporter blocker and an increase in the extracellular concentration of GABA negatively affect the formation of myotubes.</p>","PeriodicalId":484,"journal":{"name":"Biochemistry (Moscow), Supplement Series A: Membrane and Cell Biology","volume":"17 4","pages":"319 - 324"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2023-12-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138565818","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the mechanisms that mediate the survival and death of cells in the peripheral nervous system are still not fully understood. The transcription factors p53 and E2F1 are the master regulators of basic cellular functions, including DNA repair, cell cycle, metabolism, and apoptosis. Overexpression of p53 and E2F1, shown in a number of experimental models of peripheral nerve injury, suggests an important role of these proteins in the pathogenesis of neurotrauma. This review discusses the epigenetic mechanisms of p53 and E2F1 activation and regulation, which may contribute to the survival or death of neurons and glial cells after traumatic injury. Prospects for further studies of the mechanisms of regulation of the p53 and E2F1 proteins, including those involving histone deacetylases, for the development of neuroprotectors are considered.</p>","PeriodicalId":484,"journal":{"name":"Biochemistry (Moscow), Supplement Series A: Membrane and Cell Biology","volume":"17 4","pages":"249 - 263"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2023-12-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138566055","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
