Objective: To explore the protective mechanism of spinosin (SPI) on Alzheimer's disease (AD) model cells, Neuro-2a/APP695 (N2a/APP695), against HO-induced oxidative stress damage, to reflect the influence of oxidative stress on the development of AD, and to provide a valuable basis for the research and development of therapeutic drug for AD.
Methods: N2a/APP695 cells were exposed to HO and then treated with spinosin. Firstly, the secretion level of amyloid β (Aβ) and the production of malondialdehyde (MDA) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay kits. Secondly, the oligomerization degree of Aβ was performed by Thioflavin T staining. Thirdly, the expression levels of p-Tau (Ser199/202/396), synaptophysin (SYP), postsynaptic density protein 95 (PSD95), and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) family-related proteins were detected by Western blot analysis. In addition, FITC-labeled phalloidin was used in cytoskeleton staining to reflect synaptic function.
Results: This study showed that HO stimulated N2a/APP695 cells to produce excessive MDA and LDH and secrete a large amount of Aβ, promoted the aggregation of Aβ, induced Tau protein hyperphosphorylation, and led to synaptic dysfunction. Spinosin reversed these changes caused by HO by inactivating p38, which was verified by treatment with the p38 inhibitor BIRB796.
Conclusion: Spinosin protects N2a/APP695 cells from oxidative stress damage caused by HO through inactivating p38.

Oxidative stress and neuronal apoptosis could be an important factor leading to post-hemorrhagic consequences after germinal matrix hemorrhage (GMH). Previously study have indicated that relaxin 2 receptor activation initiates anti-oxidative stress and anti-apoptosis in ischemia-reperfusion injury. However, whether relaxin 2 activation can attenuate oxidative stress and neuronal apoptosis after GMH remains unknown.

Background: This article aims to use high-throughput sequencing to identify miRNAs associated with ferroptosis in myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury, select a target miRNA, and investigate its role in H9C2 cells hypoxia-reoxygenation injury.
Methods: SD rats and H9C2 cells were used as subjects. ELISA kits quantified MDA, SOD, GSH, LDH, and ferritin levels.

Aging is influenced by a complex interplay of multifarious factors, including an individual's genetics, environment, and lifestyle. Notably, high altitude may impact aging and age-related diseases through exposures such as hypoxia and ultraviolet (UV) radiation. To investigate this, we mined risk exposure data (summary exposure value), disease burden data (disability-adjusted life years (DALYs)), and death rates and life expectancy from the Global Health Data Exchange (GHDx) and National Data Management Center for Health of Ethiopia for each subnational region of Ethiopia, a country with considerable differences in the living altitude.

Vitiligo is a complex autoimmune skin disorder characterized by depigmentation and immune dysregulation. To elucidate the role of ferroptosis-related genes (FRGs) in vitiligo, we conducted a comprehensive analysis of gene expression data from the GSE53146 and GSE65127 datasets obtained from the GEO database. We identified 31 differentially expressed FRGs (DE-FRGs), with 21 genes upregulated and 10 downregulated.

The transcription factor p53 is exquisitely sensitive and selective to a broad variety of cellular environments. Several studies have reported that oxidative stress weakens the p53-DNA binding affinity for certain promoters depending on the oxidation mechanism. Despite this body of work, the precise mechanisms by which the physiologically relevant DNA-p53 tetramer complex senses cellular stresses caused by HO are still unknown.
