Midbrain dopamine (mDA) neurons participate in a wide range of brain functions through an intricate regulation of DA biosynthesis. The epigenetic factors and mechanisms in this process are not well understood. Here we report that histone demethylase JMJD3 is a critical regulator for DA biosynthesis in adult mouse mDA neurons.

Cerebral ischemic stroke ranks among the leading causes of death and disability worldwide. A significant challenge, beyond the lack of effective therapies, is the frequent oversight of sex as a vital factor in stroke research. This study focuses on elucidating the sex-specific epigenetic mechanisms that contribute to neural damage and recovery in cerebral ischemia.

Dysregulated RNA metabolism caused by SMN deficiency leads to motor neuron disease spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). Current therapies improve patient outcomes but achieve no definite cure, prompting renewed efforts to better understand disease mechanisms. The calcium channel blocker flunarizine improves motor function in -deficient mice and can help uncover neuroprotective pathways.

Jumonji domain-containing protein D3 (JMJD3) is a 2-oxoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase that specifically removes transcriptional repression marks di- and tri-methylated groups from lysine 27 on histone 3 (H3K27me2/3). The erasure of these marks leads to the activation of some associated genes, thereby influencing various biological processes, such as development, differentiation, and immune response. However, comprehensive descriptions regarding the relationship between JMJD3 and inflammation are lacking.
