Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a metabolic liver disorder with severe complications. Mitochondrial dysfunction due to over-opening of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) in liver cells plays a central role in the development and progression of NAFLD. Restoring mitochondrial function is a promising strategy for NAFLD therapy.

Aims: Gut dysbiosis modulates CNS complications and cognitive decline through the gut-brain axis. The study aims to investigate the molecular mechanisms involved in gut dysbiosis-associated cognitive changes and the potential effects of probiotics in high fat-high carbohydrate diet-induced gut dysbiosis-associated neurodegeneration.

Materials And Methods: We used high fat, high-carbohydrate diet (HFHCD) and high-fat diet (HFD) to induce gut dysbiosis-associated neurodegeneration in C57BL/6 mice.

Frontiers Science Center for Deep Ocean Multispheres and Earth Systems, Key Laboratory of Marine Chemistry Theory and Technology, Ministry of Education/Sanya Oceanographic Institution, Ocean University of China, Qingdao/Sanya, 266003/572024, China.

The scarcity of effective neuroprotective agents and the presence of blood-brain barrier (BBB)-mediated extremely inefficient intracerebral drug delivery are predominant obstacles to the treatment of cerebral ischemic stroke (CIS). Herein, ROS-responsive borneol-based amphiphilic polymeric NPs are constructed by using traditional Chinese medicine borneol as functional blocks that served as surface brain-targeting ligand, inner hydrophobic core for efficient drug loading of membrane-permeable calcium chelator BAPTA-AM, and neuroprotective structural component. In MCAO mice, the nanoformulation (polymer: 3.

Bisphenol A induces apoptosis and disrupts testosterone synthesis in TM3 cells via reactive oxygen species-mediated mitochondrial pathway and autophagic flux inhibition.

Bisphenol A (BPA) is a common endocrine disruptor chemical that is widely used in the production of food plastic packaging, and it has been shown to potentially harm the reproductive system. However, the specific mechanism by which BPA induces apoptosis of Leydig cells (LCs) and inhibits testosterone synthesis in these cells is unclear. In the present study, TM3 cells were used as an experimental model in combination with a reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenger (N-acetylcysteine), Caspase-3 inhibitor (Ac-DEVD-CHO), autophagy activator (Torin2), and autophagy inhibitor (Chloroquine) to investigate the potential mechanisms by which BPA causes TM3 cell damage in vitro.

Article Synopsis
  • The mitochondrial pyruvate carrier (MPC) plays a key role in connecting glycolysis to mitochondrial metabolism and its function in glioblastoma (GBM) post-treatment is not well understood.
  • Through in vitro and in vivo studies, the research shows that the MPC is crucial in regulating metabolism after treatments like temozolomide (TMZ) and radiation, specifically inhibiting differentiation in GBM cells.
  • The study highlights the potential for using MPC inhibitors to enhance the effectiveness of current therapies and improve survival rates for GBM patients.
