Cell death is vital to various organismal developmental processes including brain development. Apoptosis, the most recognized programmed cell death, has been linked to several developmental processes and implicated in pruning cells to provide the ultimate tissue integrity. However, more recently, other forms of non-apoptotic programmed cell death have been identified, of which necroptosis is of predominant interest. Necroptosis is a regulated form of necrosis, activated under apoptotic-deficient conditions...

Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) comprises a group of hereditary neuropathies with clinical, epidemiological, and molecular heterogeneity in which variants in more than 80 different genes have been reported. One of the important genes which cause 5% of all CMT cases is Myelin protein zero (P0, MPZ). Variants in this gene have been reported in association with different forms of CMT including classical CMT1, severe DSS (CMT3B), DI-CMT, CMT2I and CMT2J with autosomal dominant (AD) inheritance. To our knowledge, MPZ variants have not been described in autosomal recessive (AR) form of CMT in previous studies...

Ischemic stroke is a disabling and fatal disease caused by the insufficient blood supply to the brain. Stellate ganglion block (SGB) is a type of anesthesia commonly used to relieve pain. Here, we sought to identify the effects of SGB on cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. The middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) model was established in rats. The brain injury was assessed using the 2,3,5-triphenyl-tetrazolium-chloride (TTC) staining assay and neurological score. Ferroptosis was analyzed by detecting cell death, Fe2+ content, glutathione (GSH), malonic dialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and ferroptosis-related factors...

Type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is associated with neuroinflammation and cognitive decrement. Necroptosis programmed necrosis is emerging as the major contributing factor to central changes. It is best characterized by the upregulation of p-RIPK(Receptor Interacting Kinase), p-RIPK3, and the phosphorylated-MLKL (mixed-lineage kinase domain-like protein). The present study aims to evaluate the neuroprotective effect of Necrostatin (Nec-1S), a p-RIPK inhibitor, on cognitive changes in the experimental T2DM model in C57BL/6 mice and lipotoxicity-induced neuro-microglia changes in neuro2A and BV2 cells...

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common cause of dementia. In recent years, several studies have robustly shown that neuroinflammation plays a crucial role in the pathophysiology of this disease. The co-localization of amyloid-β plaques near activated glial cells and the increased levels of inflammatory cytokines in AD patients indicate the involvement of the neuroinflammatory process in AD progression. Considering that pharmacological treatment remains a challenge for the management of this disease, compounds with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties are promising therapeutic strategies...
