The mechanism of LZ-8-mediated immune response in the mouse model of Parkinson's disease.

Parkinson's disease (PD) is associated with microscopic changes in the brain, particularly substantia nigra (SN). Ganoderma lucidum immunoregulatory protein (rLZ-8) is might confer protective effects against PD. We developed a 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)-induced murine model of PD and determined the effects of rLZ-8 on molecular and cellular components of SN and whole brain tissue.

Role of NLRP3 inflammasome in hepatocellular carcinoma: A double-edged sword.

In recent years, the study of NOD-like receptor thermal protein domain associated protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome has become a hot topic, especially its role in various tumors. The incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma is ranked in the top five in China. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the predominant and typical form of primary liver cancer.

Role of targeting TLR4 signaling axis in liver-related diseases.

Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) plays an important role as a key signal-receiving transmembrane protein molecule in the liver, and substances that target the liver exert therapeutic effects via TLR4-related signaling pathways. This article provides a comprehensive review of targeting the TLR4 signaling axis to play an important role in the liver based on endogenous substances. Articles were divided into 5 major types of liver disease, acute liver injury, viral hepatitis, alcoholic and non-alcoholic liver disease, cirrhosis, and liver cancer, to elucidate how various endogenous substances affect the liver via the TLR4 pathway and the important role of the pathway itself in liver-related diseases to discover the potential therapeutic implications of the TLR4-related pathway in the liver.

Research progress on the role of (Nedd4 family interacting protein 1) in immune cells.

Nedd4 family interacting protein 1 () was first mentioned in an article in 2000. Since its discovery, related studies have shown that this protein is associated with apoptosis, neuroprotection, substance transport, ubiquitination, and immune regulation. It is noteworthy that the lack of can lead to death in fetal mice.
