CD103(-)CD8(+) T cells promote neurotoxic inflammation in Alzheimer's disease via granzyme K-PAR-1 signaling

2 months 3 weeks ago
Immune mechanisms contribute to the neuropathology of Alzheimer's disease (AD) but the role of adaptive immune cells is unclear. Here we show that the brain CD8^(+) T cell compartment is dysregulated in AD patients and in the 3xTg-AD mouse model, accumulating activated CD103^(-) tissue-resident memory T cells that produce large amounts of granzyme K (GrK). These CD103^(-)CD8^(+) T cells originate from the circulation and migrate into the brain using LFA-1 integrin. Ablation of brain...

Invasive neurophysiology and whole brain connectomics for neural decoding in patients with brain implants

2 months 3 weeks ago
Brain-computer interface research can inspire closed-loop neuromodulation therapies, promising spatiotemporal precision for the treatment of brain disorders. Decoding dynamic patient states from brain signals with machine learning is required to leverage this precision, but a standardized framework for invasive brain signal decoding from neural implants does not exist. Here we develop a platform that integrates brain signal decoding with magnetic resonance imaging connectomics and demonstrate...

The nuclear pore complex connects energy sensing to transcriptional plasticity in longevity

2 months 3 weeks ago
As the only gateway governing nucleocytoplasmic transport, the nuclear pore complex (NPC) maintains fundamental cellular processes and deteriorates with age. However, the study of age-related roles of single NPC components remains challenging owing to the complexity of NPC composition. Here, we demonstrate that the central energy sensor, AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), post-translationally regulates the abundance of the nucleoporin NPP-16/NUP50 in response to nutrient availability and...

D-galactose-induced aging and obese conditions contribute to aging and pathologies in dental pulp of male wistar rats

2 months 3 weeks ago
Our previous studies demonstrated that both D-galactose (D-gal)-mediated aging and high-fat diet (HF)-promoted obesity trigger inflammation, impair mitochondrial function in heart and brain, and disrupt bone homeostasis. However, the dental pulp pathologies in aging and obesity remain unclear. Insight into pulp biology under systemic conditions may facilitate strategies for maintaining pulp vitality. This study explored the effects of D-gal-mediated aging and HF-promoted obesity and...
