Kalirin-7 contributes to type 2 diabetic neuropathic pain via the postsynaptic density-95/N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor 2B-dependent N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor 2B phosphorylation in the spinal cord in rats.
CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest that spinally expressed Kalirin-7 likely contributes to type 2 diabetic neuropathic pain through regulating the PSD-95/NR2B interaction-dependent NR2B phosphorylation in the spinal cord. PMID: 32913553 [PubMed]

Connecting Metainflammation and Neuroinflammation Through the PTN-MK-RPTP β/ζ Axis: Relevance in Therapeutic Development
Conclusion The expression of the components of the PTN-MK-RPTPβ/ζ axis in immune cells and in inflammatory diseases suggests important roles for this axis in inflammation. Pleiotrophin has been recently identified as a limiting factor of metainflammation, a chronic pathological state that contributes to neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration. Pleiotrophin also seems to potentiate acute neuroinflammation independently of the inflammatory stimulus while MK seems to play different -even opposite- roles in acute neuroinflammation depending on the stimulus. Which are the functions of MK and PTN in chronic neuroi...
