The imbalance of microglial homeostasis is highly associated with age-related neurological diseases, where cytosolic endogenous DNA is also likely to be found. As the main medium for storing biological information, endogenous DNA could be localized to cellular compartments normally free of DNA when cells are stimulated. However, the intracellular trafficking of endogenous DNA remains unidentified.

Ginkgolide B (GB) is a bioactive constituent found in Ginkgo biloba leaves that has been long recognized as a protective agent against many neurological disorders. Our study aimed to examine the effect of GB in an in vitro Parkinson's disease (PD) model and to investigate its neuroprotective mechanism as a primary objective. SK-N-SH cells were challenged with 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP) to act as a PD-like model of neuronal damage.

Pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), consisting of Toll-like receptors, RIG-I-like receptors, cytosolic DNA sensors, and NOD-like receptors, sense exogenous pathogenic molecules and endogenous damage signals to maintain physiological homeostasis. Upon activation, PRRs stimulate the sensitization of nuclear factor κB, mitogen-activated protein kinase, TANK-binding kinase 1-interferon (IFN) regulatory factor, and inflammasome signaling pathways to produce inflammatory factors and IFNs to activate Janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription signaling pathways, resulting in anti-infection, antitumor, and other specific immune responses. Palmitoylation is a crucial type of post-translational modification that reversibly alters the localization, stability, and biological activity of target molecules.

Currently, no drugs directly treat liver fibrosis. Previously, we have shown that treatment with miR-29a-3p improved liver fibrosis in a mouse model. To investigate the effectiveness of nucleic acid therapy at a lower dose, a modified nucleic acid was prepared based on miR-29a-3p.

Article Synopsis
- Sir2 is a histone deacetylase that helps maintain the stability of ribosomal RNA genes in budding yeast by preventing DNA breaks from leading to changes in rDNA copy number.
- It does this by suppressing transcription near issues that arise during DNA replication, which can otherwise provoke double-strand breaks (DSBs) and subsequent DNA repair processes.
- When Sir2 is absent, increased transcription can lead to DSBs, resulting in unstable rDNA copy numbers and the formation of extrachromosomal DNA, highlighting the importance of Sir2 in maintaining rDNA integrity.
