Long noncoding RNA GAS5 acts as a competitive endogenous RNA to regulate GSK-3β and PTEN expression by sponging miR-23b-3p in Alzheimer's disease.

Long noncoding RNA and microRNA are regulatory noncoding RNAs that are implicated in Alzheimer's disease, but the role of long noncoding RNA-associated competitive endogenous RNA has not been fully elucidated. The long noncoding RNA growth arrest-specific 5 (GAS5) is a member of the 5'-terminal oligopyrimidine gene family that may be involved in neurological disorders, but its role in Alzheimer's disease remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the function of GAS5 and construct a GAS5-associated competitive endogenous RNA network comprising potential targets.

Discovery of cinnamamide/ester triazole hybrids as potential treatment for Alzheimer's disease.

Developing multitargeted ligands as promising therapeutics for Alzheimer's disease (AD) has been considered important. Herein, a novel class of cinnamamide/ester-triazole hybrids with multifaceted effects on AD was developed based on the multitarget-directed ligands strategy. Thirty-seven cinnamamide/ester-triazole hybrids were synthesized, with most exhibiting significant inhibitory activity against Aβ-induced toxicity at a single concentration in vitro.

Tilianin improves cognition in a vascular dementia rodent model by targeting miR-193b-3p/CaM- and miR-152-3p/CaMKIIα-mediated inflammatory and apoptotic pathways.

Introduction: Although vascular dementia (VaD) is the second most prevalent form of dementia, there is currently a lack of effective treatments. Tilianin, isolated from the traditional drug L., may protect against ischemic injury by inhibiting oxidative stress and inflammation via the CaMKII-related pathways but with weak affinity with the CaMKII molecule.

Role of traditional Chinese medicine in ameliorating mitochondrial dysfunction non-coding RNA signaling: Implication in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases.

Neurodegenerative diseases (NDs) are common chronic disorders associated with progressive nervous system damage, including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and Huntington's disease, among others. Mitochondria are abundant in various nervous system cells and provide a bulk supply of the adenosine triphosphate necessary for brain function, considered the center of the free-radical theory of aging. One common feature of NDs is mitochondrial dysfunction, which is involved in many physiopathological processes, including apoptosis, inflammation, oxidative stress, and calcium homeostasis.

The Relationship between the Aberrant Long Non-Coding RNA-Mediated Competitive Endogenous RNA Network and Alzheimer's Disease Pathogenesis.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a common neurodegenerative disorder characterized by cognitive dysfunction. The role of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) with the action of competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) in AD remains unclear. The present study aimed to identify significantly differentially expressed lncRNAs (SDELs) and establish lncRNA-associated ceRNA networks via RNA sequencing analysis and a quantitative real-time Polymerase Chain Reaction (qPCR) assay using transgenic mice with five familial AD mutations.

Exploration of the Molecular Mechanisms of Boriss Treatment of Asthma in an mRNA-miRNA Network via Bioinformatics Analysis.

Boriss () is a traditional Chinese medicine commonly used in the treatment of asthma. In the present study, we applied bioinformatics techniques for mRNA-miRNA profiling to elucidate the potential mechanisms of in asthma treatment. Bioactive compounds from , potential therapeutic targets of , and asthma-related targets were identified from the literature and databases.

miR-30a-5p induces Aβ production via inhibiting the nonamyloidogenic pathway in Alzheimer's disease.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathogenesis is known to involve a dysregulation of microRNA expression, and these intricate transcriptional cascades between multiple pathological manifestations affect brain homeostasis. Previous studies have revealed that miR-30a-5p participates in neuronal damage and is upregulated in amyloid beta-peptide (Aβ)-induced models. However, its involvement in cognition dysfunction and the AD pathogenic process remains unclear.

Implications of miR-148a-3p/p35/PTEN signaling in tau hyperphosphorylation and autoregulatory feedforward of Akt/CREB in Alzheimer's disease.

Existing studies have revealed that microRNAs (miRNAs) have a role in cognitive deficits in Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, the function and pathophysiological mechanism of deregulated miRNAs underlying AD pathology remain to be investigated. The present study aimed to clarify the role and mechanism of miR-148a-3p in AD.

Identification of miRNA and Their Regulatory Effects Induced by Total Flavonoids From in the Treatment of Vascular Dementia.

Vascular dementia (VaD) is a general term used to describe difficulties in memory, reasoning, judgment, and planning caused by a reduced blood flow to the brain and consequent brain damage, in which microRNAs (miRNAs) are involved. L. () is traditionally used in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases as well as VaD, but the biomolecular mechanisms underlying its therapeutic effect are obscure.

Tilianin Ameliorates Cognitive Dysfunction and Neuronal Damage in Rats with Vascular Dementia via p-CaMKII/ERK/CREB and ox-CaMKII-Dependent MAPK/NF-B Pathways.

Vascular dementia (VaD) is a common cause of cognitive decline and dementia of vascular origin, but the precise pathological mechanisms are unknown, and so effective clinical treatments have not been established. Tilianin, the principal active compound of total flavonoid extract from L., is a candidate therapy for cardio-cerebrovascular diseases in China.
