BACKGROUND: The proinflammatory response triggered by macrophages/microglia plays a crucial role in the prognosis of acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Identifying novel targets to regulate the homeostasis of these cells is essential. Developing therapeuti...
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic disease of the central nervous system. The occurrence of MS is a phased process while its cause is still unclear. Here, by combining white matter single-nucleus transcriptomic datasets from MS and control samples,...
Recent advances in our understanding of non-cell-autonomous mechanisms in neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs) have highlighted microglial dysfunction as a core driver of disease progression. Conditions such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), amyotrophic late...
Neonatal hypoxic-ischemic (H-I) brain injury, a leading cause of neurodevelopmental disabilities, severely affects the metabolically active and neurogenic hippocampus. To investigate its acute effects and identify drug targets for early therapeutic w...
Galectin-3 (Gal-3) has emerged as a critical regulator of neuroinflammation and a promising therapeutic target for Alzheimer's disease (AD). Nevertheless, the development of brain-penetrant small-molecule Gal-3 inhibitors poses a significant challeng...
Microglial activation is linked to neuroinflammation in neuropathic pain. Recently, microglia-mediated synaptic pruning has received mounting attention. However, the exact role of spinal microglia in modulating neuropathic pain-associated neural circ...
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by deposition of amyloid-β (Aβ) and neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) formed by aggregates of hyperphosphorylated tau proteins. It presents a formidable global health challenge, prompting the exploration of inno...

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) induces complex molecular and cellular responses, often leading to vision deterioration and potential mortality. Current objective diagnostic methods are limited, necessitating the development of novel tools to assess dis...
BACKGROUND: Microglia are important immune cells in the central nervous system, playing a key role in various pathological processes. The morphological diversity of microglia is closely linked to the development of brain diseases, yet accurate segmen...
