The crucial role of 5hmC in neuroprotection and repair after cerebrovascular injury by Yanina Tsenkina

“…The discussion delves into the dynamic interaction between hydroxymethylation and important pathways in neuroprotection, such as the modulation of excitotoxicity and cellular metabolism, resolution of inflammation, and mitigation of oxidative stress. Additionally, it explores emerging evidence suggesting that 5hmC contributes to neurorepair by promoting neurogenesis, axonal regeneration, angiogenesis, and synaptic plasticity. …”

Effects of biologic therapy on novel indices of lung inhomogeneity in patients with severe type-2 high asthma by Nayia Petousi, Nick P Talbot, Ian Pavord, Peter A Robbins, Nicholas M J Smith, Graham Richmond, Asma Alamoudi, Lorenzo Petralia, Haopeng Xu, Dominic Sandhu, Grant AD Ritchie

“…Responders, unlike Non-Responders, experienced significant improvements in symptoms and FEV1 % predicted (Δ pre-BD FEV115±15% pred, p<0.001) and included a higher proportion of patients in clinical remission at 1 year.Conclusion σlnCl is strongly associated with systemic eosinophilic inflammation in severe type-2 high asthma. An early σlnCl response following anti-IL5 biologics identifies patients more likely to experience improvements in symptoms and lung function when systemic eosinophils are depleted. σlnCl may provide a sensitive route for tracking inflammation involving the small airways.…”

Sex-specific influences of APOEε4 genotype on hippocampal neurogenesis and progenitor cells in middle-aged rats by Bonnie H. Lee, Melike Cevizci, Stephanie E. Lieblich, Liisa A. M. Galea

“…Compared to healthy controls, male rats with hAPOEε4 genotype showed reduced neural stem cell-like cells and new adult-born brain cells and increased microglia (marker of inflammation in the brain) at middle age. In contrast, female rats with hAPOEε4 genotype showed increased new adult-born neurons, but no changes in the other cell types, suggesting a possible compensatory response to the effects of hAPOEε4 at this time point. …”
