This review aims to sum up how Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) regulate the development of periodontitis and provides a new perspective for understanding the pathogenesis of periodontitis. We explored the ncRNA's dual role in the development of periodontitis by summarizing evidence from previous and studies as well as clinical samples. In our review, the downregulation of 18 miRNAs, 22 lncRNAs and 10 circRNAs demonstrates protective roles in periodontitis.

Microglial cells are important resident innate immune components in the central nervous system that are often activated during neuroinflammation. Activated microglia can display one of two phenotypes, M1 or M2, which each play distinct roles in neuroinflammation. Rutin, a dietary flavonoid, exhibits protective effects against neuroinflammation.

Background: Sepsis-associated encephalopathy (SAE) is an early and frequent event of infection-induced systemic inflammatory response syndrome. Phosphoinositide 3-kinase γ (PI3Kγ) is linked to neuroinflammation and inflammation-related microglial activity. In homeotherms, variations in ambient temperature (T) outside the thermoneutral zone lead to thermoregulatory responses, mainly driven by a gradually increasing sympathetic activity, and may affect disease severity.

Trained immunity and immune tolerance have been identified as long-term response patterns of the innate immune system. The causes of these opposing reactions remain elusive. Here, we report about differential inflammatory responses of microglial cells derived from neonatal mouse brain to increasing doses of the endotoxin LPS.

Sepsis-induced myocardial depression (SIMD) is an early and frequent consequence of the infection-induced systemic inflammatory response syndrome. In homiotherms, variations in ambient temperature (T) outside the thermoneutral zone induce thermoregulatory responses mainly driven by a gradually increased sympathetic activity, which may affect disease severity. We hypothesized that thermoregulatory responses upon reduced T exposition aggravate SIMD in mice.
