In recent years, neurodegeneration has been recognized as a clinical condition that is characterized by neuronal death, dementia, and gradual diminish of cognitive function, poor body coordination and motor disorders. Several studies deciphering cellular and molecular mechanisms show a promising insight for several kinds of damages including neurodegeneration in central nervous system. In addition, there has been an inflammatory key mechanism involved in neurodegenerative disorders. There is a paucity of literature in both cellular- and molecular-mediated targets in damaged neurons at both in vitro and in vivo research models. It has been notified that CNS has a very restricted magnitude of regeneration. Numerous key factors have also been studied and considered as possible culprit of neurodegeneration. Autophagy is a well-known degradation process wherein vesicular machinery as autophagosome transports cytoplasmic contents to the lysosomes. In earlier reports, a bridging connection between autophagy and its associated mechanism has been established. Natural compounds as a neuro-therapeutics have been recognized in neurodegeneration. In our review, we discuss the mechanisms for the onset and progression in neurodegeneration, via inflammation and autophagic machine available in cellular compartments in CNS. This review also discusses about the neuroprotective efficacy of natural compounds against neurodegeneration episodes displays in neuronal platform.

Progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) is a rare, atypical parkinsonism, characterized by the presence of intracerebral tau protein aggregates and determined by a wide spectrum of clinical features. The definitive diagnosis is postmortem and is identified through the presence of neuronal death, gliosis, and aggregates of the tau protein presented in the form of neurofibrillary tangles (MNF) with a globose appearance in regions such as the subthalamic nucleus, the substantia nigra, and the globus pallidus The findings in ancillary imaging studies, as well as fluids biomarkers, are not sufficient to support diagnosis of PSP but are used to rule out similar pathologies because there are still no specific or validated biomarkers for this disease. The current treatment of PSP is focused on reducing symptoms, although emerging therapies seek to counteract its pathophysiological mechanisms.

Tumor-specific antigens, also known as neoantigens, have potential utility in anti-cancer immunotherapy, including immune checkpoint blockade (ICB), neoantigen-specific T cell receptor-engineered T (TCR-T), chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T), and therapeutic cancer vaccines (TCVs). After recognizing presented neoantigens, the immune system becomes activated and triggers the death of tumor cells. Neoantigens may be derived from multiple origins, including somatic mutations (single nucleotide variants, insertion/deletions, and gene fusions), circular RNAs, alternative splicing, RNA editing, and polymorphic microbiome.

The objective of this study was to investigate the prognostic significance of the frequency of primary cilia (PC) and β-catenin expression in 218 patients (pts) with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), including 125 pts with adenocarcinoma and 93 pts with squamous cell carcinoma. In the whole group of 218 pts with NSCLC, overall survival (OS) was significantly inferior among pts with present PC than without PC (p=0.024) and with higher cytoplasmic β-catenin expression (25-75%) than with lower cytoplasmic β-catenin expression (<25%) (p=0.

MTHFD2 is highly overexpressed in breast cancer tissues, indicating that it might be used as a target in breast cancer treatment. This study aims to determine the role of MTHFD2 in breast cancer cell proliferation and the molecular pathways involved. In order to investigate MTHFD2 gene expression and its downstream pathways in breast cancer, we started our inquiry with a bioinformatics analysis.
