Article Abstract

Low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein-1 (LRP1) is an endocytic/signaling cell-surface receptor that regulates diverse cellular functions, including cell survival, differentiation, and proliferation. LRP1 has been previously implicated in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative disorders, but there are inconsistencies in its functions. Therefore, whether and how LRP1 maintains brain homeostasis remains to be clarified. Here, we report that astrocytic LRP1 promotes astrocyte-to-neuron mitochondria transfer by reducing lactate production and ADP-ribosylation factor 1 (ARF1) lactylation. In astrocytes, LRP1 suppressed glucose uptake, glycolysis, and lactate production, leading to reduced lactylation of ARF1. Suppression of astrocytic LRP1 reduced mitochondria transfer into damaged neurons and worsened ischemia-reperfusion injury in a mouse model of ischemic stroke. Furthermore, we examined lactate levels in human patients with stroke. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) lactate was elevated in stroke patients and inversely correlated with astrocytic mitochondria. These findings reveal a protective role of LRP1 in brain ischemic stroke by enabling mitochondria-mediated astrocyte-neuron crosstalk.

Fatty acid binding protein 7 (FABP7) is prominently expressed in astrocytes and is a critical regulator of inflammatory responses. Accumulating evidence suggests that FABP7 is crucial in neuropsychological disease through the modulation of spinogenesis. Nonetheless, the impact of FABP7 on depressive disorders and the underlying mechanisms is not fully understood.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by cognitive decline, neuroinflammation, and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. In recent years, exosomes have garnered significant attention as a potential therapeutic tool for neurodegenerative diseases. This study, for the first time, investigates the neuroprotective effects of exosomes derived from olfactory mucosa mesenchymal stem cells (OM-MSCs-Exos) in AD and further explore the potential role of low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1 (LRP1) in this process.

and its bioactive compound tricin have been recognized for their anti-inflammatory, anti-allergic, and anti-aging properties. However, the impact of extract (ZLE) and tricin on astrocyte dysfunction, particularly related to disruptions in the amyloid β (Aβ) clearance pathway, has not been extensively studied. This research aims to explore the regulatory effects of ZLE and tricin on astroglial dysfunction, utilizing astrocytic differentiated C6 cells (passages 75~85) subjected to Aβ and high-dose insulin, as well as scopolamine-induced mice.

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is one of the leading public health concerns in the world. Therapeutic hypothermia is routinely used in severe TBI, and pathophysiological hyperthermia, frequently observed in TBI patients, has an unclear impact on drug transport in the injured brain due to a lack of study on its effects. We investigated the effect of post-traumatic therapeutic hypothermia at 33°C and pathophysiological hyperthermia at 39°C on brain transport and cell uptake of neuroprotectants after TBI.
