Radiotherapy (RT) remains crucial in treating both primary and metastatic central nervous system cancer. Despite advancements in modern techniques that mitigate some toxic adverse effects, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans still reveal a wide range of radiation-induced changes. Radiation can adversely affect neuroglial cells and their precursors, potentially triggering a demyelinating pattern similar to multiple sclerosis (MS).

Objective To investigate the protective effect of curcumin (Cur) against arsenic-induced neuroimmune toxicity and the underlying molecular mechanisms in vivo. Methods Eighty SPF female C57BL/6 mice were randomly assigned to four groups: a control group, an arsenic-treated group, a Cur-treated group and an arsenic+Cur group, with 20 mice in each group. The control group received distilled water; the arsenic-treated group was given 50 mg/L NaAsO in the drinking water; the Cur-treated group was gavaged with 200 mg/kg of curcumin for 45 days; and the arsenic+Cur group received distilled water and was gavaged with 200 mg/kg of curcumin.

Arsenic is a detrimental environmental toxicant linked to neurological damage; however, the mechanisms involved remain incompletely understood. Chronic proinflammatory responses are thought to play a central role in arsenic-induced neurotoxicity. Astrocytes, which are the predominant glial cells in the central nervous system (CNS), release significant amounts of proinflammatory cytokines upon overactivation.

Manganese (Mn) has been characterized as an environmental pollutant. Excessive releases of Mn due to human activities have increased Mn levels in the environment over the years, posing a threat to human health and the environment. Long-term exposure to high concentrations of Mn can induce neurotoxicity.

Long-term symptoms such as pain, fatigue, and cognitive impairments are commonly observed in individuals affected by coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Metabolites of the kynurenine pathway have been proposed to account for cognitive impairment in COVID-19 patients. Here, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and plasma levels of kynurenine pathway metabolites in 53 COVID-19 patients and 12 non-inflammatory neurological disease controls in Sweden were measured with an ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry system (UPLC-MS/MS) and correlated with immunological markers and neurological markers.
