The role of the cGAS-STING pathway in metabolic diseases.

The cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS)-stimulator of interferon genes (STING) pathway is a critical innate immune pathway primarily due to its vital DNA sensing mechanism in pathogen defence. Recent research advances have shown that excessive activation or damage to the cGAS-STING pathway can exacerbate chronic inflammatory responses, playing a significant role in metabolic dysfunction and aging, leading to the development of related diseases such as obesity, osteoporosis, and neurodegenerative diseases. This article reviews the structure and biological functions of the cGAS-STING signaling pathway and discusses in detail how this pathway regulates the occurrence and development of metabolic and age-related diseases.

Polydopamine nanoparticles cross-linked hyaluronic acid photothermal hydrogel with cascading immunoinducible effects for in situ antitumor vaccination.

Tumor vaccine, which can effectively prevent tumor recurrence and metastasis, is a promising tool in tumor immunotherapy. However, heterogeneity of tumors and the inability to achieve a cascade effect limit the therapeutic effects of most developing tumor vaccine. We have developed a cascading immunoinducible in-situ mannose-functionalized polydopamine loaded with imiquimod phenylboronic hyaluronic acid nanocomposite gel vaccine (M/P-PDA@IQ PHA) through a boronic ester-based reaction.

Hypothermia protects the integrity of corticospinal tracts and alleviates mitochondria injury after intracerebral hemorrhage in mice.

Disruption of corticospinal tracts (CST) is a leading factor for motor impairments following intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) in the striatum. Previous studies have shown that therapeutic hypothermia (HT) improves outcomes of ICH patients. However, whether HT has a direct protection effect on the CST integrity and the underlying mechanisms remain largely unknown.

Mesenchymal Stem Cell-Derived Extracellular Vesicles Alleviate Brain Damage Following Subarachnoid Hemorrhage via the Interaction of miR-140-5p and HDAC7.

Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) triggers severe neuroinflammation and cognitive impairment, where microglial M1 polarization exacerbates the injury and M2 polarization mitigates damage. Mesenchymal stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles (MSC-EVs), carrying microRNA (miR)-140-5p, offer therapeutic promise by targeting the cAMP/PKA/CREB pathway and modulating microglial responses, demonstrating a novel approach for addressing SAH-induced brain injury. This research explored the role of miR-140-5p delivered by MSC-EVs in mitigating brain damage following SAH.

Circular RNAs as biomarkers and therapeutic targets for gastrointestinal cancers.

Circular RNAs are a class of noncoding RNAs with covalently linked 5' and 3' ends that arise from backsplicing events. The absence of a 5' cap and a 3' poly(A) tail makes circular RNAs relatively more stable than their linear counterparts. They are evolutionary conserved and tissue-specific, and some show disease-specific expression patterns.
