Altered aminoacid and lipid metabolism in a rat orofacial inflammation model determined by omics approach: potential role in trigeminal sensitisation.

The journal of headache and pain
BACKGROUND: Trigeminal activation and sensitisation involved in chronic inflammatory orofacial pain share several similarities with headaches, including migraine. Therefore, understanding the pathophysiological mechanisms is important to determine no...

GBE1 alleviates MPTP-induced PD symptoms in mice by enhancing glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylation.

Brain research
In Parkinson's disease (PD), the disturbance of energy metabolism due to glucose metabolic reprogramming may be a critical factor contributing to neuronal degeneration and death. Glycolysis, as the core process of glucose metabolism, not only serves ...

Protein interactions, network pharmacology, and machine learning work together to predict genes linked to mitochondrial dysfunction in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

Scientific reports
This study looked at possible targets for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), a condition marked by thickening of the ventricular wall, primarily in the left ventricle. We employed differential gene analysis and weighted gene co-expression network ana...

Machine learning analysis of FOSL2 and RHoBTB1 as central immunological regulators in knee osteoarthritis synovium.

The Journal of international medical research
BackgroundKnee osteoarthritis is a debilitating disease with a complex pathogenesis. Synovitis, which refers to inflammation of the synovial membrane surrounding the joint, is believed to play an important role in the development and progression of k...

Big data-driven target identification by machine learning: DRD2 as a therapeutic target for psoriasis.

Journal of dermatological science
BACKGROUND: The development of medical treatments has traditionally relied on researchers leveraging scientific knowledge to hypothesize disease mechanisms and identify therapeutic agents. However, the depletion of novel therapeutic targets has becom...

CLIC1 and IFITM2 expression in brain tissue correlates with cognitive impairment via immune dysregulation in sepsis and Alzheimer's disease.

International immunopharmacology
BACKGROUND: Sepsis, a life-threatening condition driven by dysregulated host responses to infection, is associated with long-term cognitive impairments resembling Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, the molecular mechanisms linking sepsis-induced cogn...

Assessing the cardioprotective effects of exercise in APOE mouse models using deep learning and photon-counting micro-CT.

PloS one
BACKGROUND: The allelic variations of the apolipoprotein E (APOE) gene play a critical role in regulating lipid metabolism and significantly impact cardiovascular disease risk (CVD). This study aimed to evaluate the impact of exercise on cardiac stru...

Root of Prunus persica (taoshugen) ameliorated renal fibrosis by inhibiting TGF-β signaling via upregulating Pmepa1 in mice with unilateral ureter obstruction.

Journal of ethnopharmacology
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: Various parts of Prunus persica (L.) Batsch (peach) exhibit medicinal properties and are utilized in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) for therapeutic purposes. Notably, the root of P. persica, referred to as "taoshug...

Sulforaphane protects developing neural networks from VPA-induced synaptic alterations.

Molecular psychiatry
Prenatal brain development is particularly sensitive to chemicals that can disrupt synapse formation and cause neurodevelopmental disorders. In most cases, such chemicals increase cellular oxidative stress. For example, prenatal exposure to the anti-...
