SENP1 inhibits ferroptosis and promotes head and neck squamous cell carcinoma by regulating ACSL4 protein stability via SUMO1.

Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is currently one of the most common malignancies with a poor prognosis worldwide. Meanwhile, small ubiquitin‑like modifier (SUMO) specific peptidase 1 (SENP1) was associated with ferroptosis. However, the specific functions and underlying mechanisms of action of SENP1 in ferroptosis and tumor progression of HNSCC remain to be established.

Alpha-asaronol promoted oligodendrocyte precursor cell differentiation and improved myelination as an activator PPARγ.

Preterm white matter injury (PWMI), characterized by oligodendrocyte precursor cell (OPC) differentiation disorder and dysmyelination, is a prevalent demyelinating disease of the central nervous system in premature infants, necessitating the development of mitigating strategies. Convincing evidence suggests that peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) activation is a stimulative factor against the hindered process of oligodendrocyte (OL) differentiation. However, much remains unknown about its promotive mechanism.

Metformin Improves the Senescence of Renal Tubular Epithelial Cells in a High-Glucose State Through E2F1.

Diabetic kidney disease is a major cause of chronic kidney condition and the most common complication of diabetes. The cellular senescence participates in the process of diabetic kidney disease, but the specific mechanism is not yet clear. Cell cycle-related protein E2F transcription factor 1 (E2F1) is a member of the E2F transcription factor family, it plays a key role in cellular damage under HG conditions.

BMP-7 Upregulates Id2 Through the MAPK Signaling Pathway to Improve Diabetic Tubulointerstitial Fibrosis and the Intervention of Oxymatrine.

Diabetic kidney disease is one of the most serious microvascular complications of diabetes. It progresses irreversibly to end-stage renal disease if left untreated. Bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-7 is a negative regulator of organ fibrosis and may also play an essential role in tubulointerstitial fibrosis.

Alpha-Asaronol Alleviates Dysmyelination by Enhancing Glutamate Transport Through the Activation of PPARγ-GLT-1 Signaling in Hypoxia-Ischemia Neonatal Rats.

Preterm white matter injury (PWMI) is the most common form of brain damage in premature infants caused by hypoxia-ischemia (HI), inflammation, or excitotoxicity. It is characterized by oligodendrocyte precursor cell (OPC) differentiation disorder and dysmyelination. Our previous study confirmed that alpha-asarone (α-asaronol), a major compound isolated from the Chinese medicinal herb by our lab, could alleviate neuronal overexcitation and improve the cognitive function of aged rats.

C1q inhibits differentiation of oligodendrocyte progenitor cells via Wnt/β-catenin signaling activation in a cuprizone-induced mouse model of multiple sclerosis.

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic central nervous system demyelinating disease of autoimmune originate. Complement C1q, a complex glycoprotein, mediates a variety of immunoregulatory functions considered important in the prevention of autoimmunity. Although we found that the increased serum C1q level was highly associated with the Fazekas scores and T2 lesion volume of MS patients, the effect and mechanism of C1q on demyelination remains unclear.
