Identification and characterization of the promoter and transcription factors regulating the expression of cerebral sodium/calcium exchanger 2 (NCX2) gene
Cell Calcium. 2022 Jan 23;102:102542. doi: 10.1016/j.ceca.2022.102542. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe isoform 2 of sodium-calcium exchanger family (NCX2) is selectively expressed in neuronal and glial cells where it participates in Ca2+-clearance following neuronal depolarization, synaptic plasticity, hippocampal-dependent learning and memory consolidation processes. On the other hand, NCX2 is also involved in a neuroprotective effect following stroke. Despite the relevance of this antiporter under physiological and pathophysiological conditions, no studies have been reported on its genetic/epigenetic regulation. Theref...

Predicting Pain in People With Sickle Cell Disease in the Day Hospital Using the Commercial Wearable Apple Watch: Feasibility Study
CONCLUSIONS: The strong performance of the model in all metrics validates feasibility and the ability to use data collected from a noninvasive device, the Apple Watch, to predict the pain scores during VOCs. It is a novel and feasible approach and presents a low-cost method that could benefit clinicians and individuals with sickle cell disease in the treatment of VOCs.PMID:36917171 | DOI:10.2196/45355

Edaravone Dexborneol Alleviates Neuroinflammation by Reducing Neuroglial Cell Proliferation and Suppresses Neuronal Apoptosis/Autophagy in Vascular Dementia Rats
In this study, we established the VD model of rats by bilateral carotid artery occlusion to explore the neuroprotective effect of EDB and its mechanism. Morris Water Maze test was applied to assess the cognitive function of rats. H&E and TUNEL staining were applied to observe the cellular structure of the hippocampus. Immunofluorescence labeling was used to observe the proliferation of astrocytes and microglia. ELISA was applied to examine the levels of TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6, and RT-PCR was applied to examine their mRNA expression levels. Western blotting was applied to examine apoptosis-related proteins (Bax, Bcl-2,...
