Hematopoietic stem cells must mitigate myriad stressors throughout their lifetime to ensure normal blood cell generation. Here, we uncover unfolded protein response stress sensor inositol-requiring enzyme-1α (IRE1α) signaling in hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) as a safeguard against myeloid leukemogenesis. Activated in part by an NADPH oxidase-2 mechanism, IRE1α-induced X-box binding protein-1 (XBP1) mediated repression of pro-leukemogenic programs exemplified by the Wnt-β-catenin pathway.

This review comprehensively explores the critical role of calcium as an essential small-molecule biomessenger in skeletal muscle function. Calcium is vital for both regulating muscle excitation-contraction coupling and for the development, maintenance, and regeneration of muscle cells. The orchestrated release of calcium from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is mediated by receptors such as the ryanodine receptor (RYR) and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (IP3R), which is crucial for skeletal muscle contraction.

Background: N-acetyl-aspartate (NAA) and myo-inositol (mI) are neurometabolites reflecting neuronal viability and astrocyte activity, respectively. These can be quantified in vivo using proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H-MRS). Previous studies have suggested that these metabolites could serve as biomarkers for Alzheimer's disease dementia (AD).

One main pathological feature utilised in diagnosis is neurodegeneration or neuronal injury, which is reflected in reductions in cerebral glucose metabolism measured by [18F]Fluorodeoxyglucose ([18F]FDG) positron emission tomography (PET). Here we evaluated the involvement of glial reactivity measured with magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) and cerebral blood flow measured with arterial spin labelling (ASL) on [18F]FDG PET as a measure of cerebral glucose metabolism.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFBackground: Cognitive resilience (CR) refers to the continuum from worse to better-than-expected cognition, given the degree of neuropathology. Understanding mechanisms underlying CR could inform discovery of novel targets for dementia prevention; however, specific metabolic pathways underlying CR are yet to be elucidated.
Methods: Our study included 484 deceased participants (mean age at death =91 years, 70.
