Liquiritin in Chaihu-shugan-san alleviates Parkinson's Disease via PPARα-mediated inhibition of SCD1/FADS2-dependent Ferroptosis.

Phytomedicine : international journal of phytotherapy and phytopharmacology
BACKGROUND: Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder with increasing global prevalence. Chaihu-shugan-san (CSS) is a Chinese medicine compound with reported neuroprotective properties. However, the precise bioactive consti...

Achyranthes Bidentata Radix mitigates neuronal apoptosis via regulation of JUN and CREB in the cAMP signaling pathway.

Phytomedicine : international journal of phytotherapy and phytopharmacology
BACKGROUND: Although Achyranthes Bidentata Radix (ABR) demonstrates neuroprotective potential in NDDs, its anti-apoptotic mechanisms remain unclear.

From neurotoxicity to neuroprotection: Rethinking GABAR-targeting anesthetics.

Cell biology and toxicology
The brain growth spurt (BGS) represents a pivotal window in neurodevelopment, defined by rapid neurogenesis, heightened synaptogenesis, and the dynamic establishment of neural networks. During this phase, heightened brain plasticity significantly enh...

Therapeutic potential of enzymes, neurosteroids, and synthetic steroids in neurodegenerative disorders: A critical review.

The Journal of steroid biochemistry and molecular biology
Neurodegenerative disorders present a significant challenge to healthcare systems, mainly due to the limited availability of effective treatment options to halt or reverse disease progression. Endogenous steroids synthesized in the central nervous sy...

Niuhuang jiedu prescription alleviates realgar-induced dopaminergic and GABAergic neurotoxicity in Caenorhabditis elegans.

Journal of ethnopharmacology
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: Niuhuang Jiedu (NHJD) is a Chinese medicine prescription containing realgar (AsS), which is neurotoxic, and seven other traditional Chinese medicines (TCMs). However, whether the multiple TCMs contained in NHJD can mit...

Structural and metabolic topological alterations associated with butylphthalide treatment in mild cognitive impairment: Data from a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial.

Psychiatry and clinical neurosciences
AIMS: Effective intervention for mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is key for preventing dementia. As a neuroprotective agent, butylphthalide has the potential to treat MCI due to Alzheimer disease (AD). However, the pharmacological mechanism of butylp...

Multitarget Natural Compounds for Ischemic Stroke Treatment: Integration of Deep Learning Prediction and Experimental Validation.

Journal of chemical information and modeling
Ischemic stroke's complex pathophysiology demands therapeutic approaches targeting multiple pathways simultaneously, yet current treatments remain limited. We developed an innovative drug discovery pipeline combining a deep learning approach with exp...

Artificial intelligence-enabled discovery of a RIPK3 inhibitor with neuroprotective effects in an acute glaucoma mouse model.

Chinese medical journal
BACKGROUND: Retinal ganglion cell (RGC) death caused by acute ocular hypertension is an important characteristic of acute glaucoma. Receptor-interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3) that mediates necroptosis is a potential therapeutic target for RGC deat...

Effect of ethanol extract of nigella sativa L seeds and propofol on BDNF protein level as neuroplasticity and neuroprotection of traumatic brain injury in rats.

F1000Research
BACKGROUND: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a change in brain function or evidence of brain pathology caused by external mechanical forces. Brain Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) is a neurotropin that functions as a neuron protective. Nigella sativ...

Novel drug discovery: Advancing Alzheimer's therapy through machine learning and network pharmacology.

European journal of pharmacology
Alzheimer's disease (AD), marked by tau tangles and amyloid-beta plaques, leads to cognitive decline. Despite extensive research, its complex etiology remains elusive, necessitating new treatments. This study utilized machine learning (ML) to analyze...
