Autophagy is critical for the homeostasis and function of neurons, as misregulation of autophagy has been implicated in age-related neurodegenerative diseases and neuron-specific knockdown of early autophagy genes results in early neurodegeneration in mice. We previously found that autophagosome formation decreases with age in murine neurons. Sex differences have been intensely studied in neurodegenerative diseases, but whether sex differences influence autophagy at the neuronal level have not been investigated.

The neuroprotective potential of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), potent anticancer drugs, was verified against various neurodegenerative insults, but not Huntington's disease (HD). These promising outcomes were due to their ability to modulate various intracellular signalling pathways. Hence, the current study aimed to evaluate the neuroprotective effects of lapatinib and pazopanib in the 3-nitropropionic (3-NP)-induced HD model in rats.

Ischemic stroke (IS) has high morbidity/mortality with limited treatments. This study screened core copper homeostasis-related genes in IS and validated their function as precise intervention targets. Human IS gene chip data were retrieved from GEO, and copper homeostasis genes from multiple databases.

Rationale: Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) are used to identify genetic variants for association with schizophrenia (SCZ) risk; however, each GWAS can only reveal a small fraction of this association.
Objectives: This study systematically analyzed multiple GWAS data sets to identify gene subnetwork and pathways associated with SCZ.
Methods: We identified gene subnetwork using dmGWAS program by combining SCZ GWASs and a human interaction network, performed gene-set analysis to test the association of gene subnetwork with clinical symptom scores and disease state, meanwhile, conducted spatiotemporal and tissue-specific expression patterns and cell-type-specific analysis of genes in the subnetwork.

Purpose: Adaptive optics scanning light ophthalmoscopy (AOSLO) paired with intravitreal injection of a viral vector coding for the calcium indicator GCaMP has enabled visualization of neuronal activity in retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) at single cell resolution in the living eye. However, the inner limiting membrane (ILM) restricts viral transduction to the fovea in humans and non-human primates, hindering both therapeutic intervention and physiological study of the retina. To address this issue, we explored peeling the ILM before intravitreal injection to expand calcium imaging beyond the fovea in the living primate eye.
