The role of HDAC3 in inflammation: mechanisms and therapeutic implications.

Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are critical regulators of inflammatory gene expression, and the efficacy of pan-HDAC inhibitors has been implicated in various disease conditions. However, it remains largely unclear how HDACs precisely regulate inflammation. To this end, evaluating the isoform-specific function of HDACs is critical, and the isoform-specific targeting could also circumvent the off-target effects of pan-HDAC inhibitors.

Dysregulation of Serum MicroRNA after Intracerebral Hemorrhage in Aged Mice.

Stroke is one of the most common diseases that leads to brain injury and mortality in patients, and intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is the most devastating subtype of stroke. Though the prevalence of ICH increases with aging, the effect of aging on the pathophysiology of ICH remains largely understudied. Moreover, there is no effective treatment for ICH.

(Mis)Information on Digital Platforms: Quantitative and Qualitative Analysis of Content From Twitter and Sina Weibo in the COVID-19 Pandemic.

Background: Misinformation about COVID-19 on social media has presented challenges to public health authorities during the pandemic. This paper leverages qualitative and quantitative content analysis on cross-platform, cross-national discourse and misinformation in the context of COVID-19. Specifically, we investigated COVID-19-related content on Twitter and Sina Weibo-the largest microblogging sites in the United States and China, respectively.

Intracerebral Hemorrhage: The Effects of Aging on Brain Injury.

Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a devastating subtype of stroke with high rates of mortality and morbidity. ICH patients often suffer devastating and debilitating neurological impairments, from which the majority of victims are unable to fully recover to functional independence. Unfortunately, there is no established medical therapy for ICH, which is partly attributed to the lack of understanding of the complex pathology of the disorder.
