Galectin-8-like isoform X1 mediates antibacterial, antiviral, and antioxidant responses in red-lip mullet (Planiliza haematocheilus) through positive modulation of pro-inflammatory cytokine, chemokine, and enzymatic antioxidant activity
This study identified Galectin-8-like isoform X1 (PhGal8X1) from red-lip mullet (Planiliza haematocheilus) and investigated its role in regulating fish immunity. The open reading frame of PhGal8X1 was 918bp, encoding a soluble protein of 305 amino acids. The protein had a theoretical isoelectric (pI) point of 7.7 and an estimated molecular weight of 34.078 kDa. PhGal8X1 was expressed in various tissues of the fish, with prominent levels in the brain, stomach, and intestine. PhGal8X1 expression was significantly (p<0.05) induced in the blood and spleen upon challenge with different immune stimuli, including polyinosinic:...

CSF1R blockade slows progression of cerebral hemorrhage by reducing microglial proliferation and increasing infiltration of CD8  + CD122+ T cells into the brain
Int Immunopharmacol. 2024 Apr 16;133:112071. doi: 10.1016/j.intimp.2024.112071. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMicroglia play a pivotal role in the neuroinflammatory response after brain injury, and their proliferation is dependent on colony-stimulating factors. In the present study, we investigated the effect of inhibiting microglia proliferation on neurological damage post intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) in a mouse model, an aspect that has never been studied before. Using a colony-stimulating factor-1 receptor antagonist (GW2580), we observed that inhibition of microglia proliferation significantly ameliorated neurobehavi...

Loganin exerts neuroprotective effect by inhibiting neuronal pyroptosis in rat with cerebral haemorrhage
This study aimed to assess the neuroprotective effects of loganin in a rat ICH model. Sprague-Dawley rats were used, subjected to a collagenase-induced ICH model, followed by loganin treatment at doses of 2.5, 5 and 10 mg/kg. Neurological functions were evaluated using the modified neurological severity score (mNSS) and a rotarod test. Results indicated a significant improvement in neurological functions in loganin-treated groups, evident from the mNSS and rotarod tests, suggesting dose-dependent neuroprotection. Loganin also effectively reduced the blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability and cerebral oedema. Additionally, ...

Galectin-3 modulates microglial activation and neuroinflammation in early brain injury after subarachnoid hemorrhage
CONCLUSION: These findings suggest that regulating microglia polarization by galectin-3 after SAH to improve neuroinflammation may be a potential therapeutic target.PMID:38636772 | DOI:10.1016/j.expneurol.2024.114777 (Source: Experimental Neurology)

DMT1 ubiquitination by Nedd4 protects against ferroptosis after intracerebral hemorrhage
CONCLUSION: The results demonstrated that ferroptosis occurs via the Nedd4/DMT1 pathway during ICH, suggesting it potential as a valuable target to inhibit ferroptosis for the treatment of ICH.PMID:38634270 | PMC:PMC11024684 | DOI:10.1111/cns.14685 (Source: CNS Neuroscience and Therapeutics)

Informed non-dissent for brain death testing in children: ethical and legal perspectives
A 14-year-old girl, Hana, is admitted to the paediatric intensive care unit following a sudden collapse at home. She is found to have sustained a severe haemorrhagic stroke. Despite emergency neurosurgical intervention, she deteriorates over several days. Her family have been struggling to accept the possibility that she would not recover. Hana remains unresponsive, has fixed dilated pupils and has developed diabetes insipidus. The clinical team suspect that she is brain dead. Should the family’s consent be sought for brain death testing? (This case is fictitious.) In mid-2022, the high profile case of Archie Batters...

Predictors of acute post-thrombectomy intracranial hemorrhage expansion in anterior circulation infarcts
CONCLUSION: Expansion of post-MT ICH on 24-h interval MRI relative to immediate post-thrombectomy DEHCT is significantly associated with baseline anticoagulant usage and petechial hemorrhage inside the infarct margins or presence of intraparenchymal hematoma (ECASS-II HI2/PH1/PH2).PMID:38629465 | DOI:10.1177/15910199241247884 (Source: Interventional Neuroradiology)

Transmastoid pediatric penetrating brain injury, interdisciplinary, and tailored patient's treatment
CONCLUSION: Radiological tools, notably skull X-rays and head CT scans, are pivotal for the precise diagnosis of pediatric PBI. The combined mastoidectomy and retro sigmoid craniotomy approach offers a safe and efficient means of foreign body removal. Tailoring treatments to individual patient needs enhances outcomes.PMID:38628538 | PMC:PMC11021077 | DOI:10.25259/SNI_18_2024 (Source: Surgical Neurology International)

Rare vermian pilocytic astrocytoma with recurrent spontaneous hemorrhage in the elderly: A case report and review of literature
CONCLUSION: PA in the elderly is a rare disease with distinct histologic and genetic peculiarities. This case review showed one of the oldest cases of cerebellar vermian PA presenting with recurrent spontaneous intratumoral hemorrhage, an extremely rare occurrence in benign glioma. Although complete surgical excision is recommended, partial resection is advocated for morbidly adherent tumors. Overall prognosis is worse in elderly PA.PMID:38628526 | PMC:PMC11021065 | DOI:10.25259/SNI_978_2023 (Source: Surgical Neurology International)
