Crisdesalazine alleviates inflammation in an experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis multiple sclerosis mouse model by regulating the immune system.

Microglia/macrophages participate in the development of and recovery from experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), and the macrophage M1 (pro-inflammatory)/M2 (anti-inflammatory) phase transition is involved in EAE disease progression. We evaluated the efficacy of crisdesalazine (a novel microsomal prostaglandin E2 synthase-1 inhibitor) in an EAE model, including its immune-regulating potency in lipopolysaccharide-stimulated macrophages, and its neuroprotective effects in a macrophage-neuronal co-culture system. Crisdesalazine significantly alleviated clinical symptoms, inhibited inflammatory cell infiltration and demyelination in the spinal cord, and altered the phase of microglial/macrophage and regulatory T cells.

Loss of cervical lordosis (LOCL) is the most common postoperative cervical deformity. This study aimed to identify the predictors of LOCL by investigating the relationship between various factors and LOCL development after surgery for cervical spinal cord tumors. A retrospective analysis was conducted on 51 patients who underwent cervical spinal tumor resection at a single center.

The complex set of interactions between the immune system and metabolism, known as immunometabolism, has emerged as a critical regulator of disease outcomes in the central nervous system. Numerous studies have linked metabolic disturbances to impaired immune responses in brain aging, neurodegenerative disorders, and brain injury. In this review, we will discuss how disruptions in brain immunometabolism balance contribute to the pathophysiology of brain dysfunction.

Spinal cord ischemia and injury pose significant challenges in spinal surgery and traumatic events. Cerebrospinal drains are considered a potential intervention to mitigate these risks, although their efficacy and safety are uncertain. We conducted a comprehensive systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the efficacy and safety of cerebrospinal drains in preventing and managing spinal cord ischemia and injury.

Spinal cord injury (SCI) represents a complex pathophysiological process involving the interaction of multiple cell types. Conventional sequencing methods can only detect the average gene expression level of the damaged local cell populations, which is difficult to reflect its heterogeneity. Therefore, new technologies are needed to reveal the intercellular heterogeneity and the complex intercellular interactions of the damaged lesions.
