Abstract
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is neurodegenerative disease characterized by a progressive loss of motor neurons resulting in paralysis and muscle atrophy. One of the most prospective hypothesis on the ALS pathogenesis suggests that excessive inflammation and advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) accumulation play a crucial role in the development of ALS in patients and SOD1 G93A mice. Hence, we may speculate that RAGE, receptor for advanced glycation end-products and its proinflammatory ligands such as: HMGB1, S100B and CML contribute to ALS pathogenesis. The aim of our studies was to decipher the role of RAGE as well as provide insight into RAGE signaling pathways during the progression of ALS in SOD1 G93A and RAGE-deficient SOD1 G93A mice. In our study, we observed alternations in molecular pattern of proinflammatory RAGE ligands during progression of disease in RAGE KO SOD1 G93A mice compared to SOD1 G93A mice. Moreover, we observed that the amount of beta actin (ACTB) as well as Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) was elevated in SOD1 G93A mice when compared to mice with deletion of RAGE. These data contributes to our understanding of implications of RAGE and its ligands in pathogenesis of ALS and highlight potential targeted therapeutic interventions at the early stage of this devastating disease. Moreover, inhibition of the molecular cross-talk between RAGE and its proinflammatory ligands may abolish neuroinflammation, gliosis and motor neuron damage in SOD1 G93A mice. Hence, we hypothesize that attenuated interaction of RAGE with its proinflammatory ligands may improve well-being and health status during ALS in SOD1 G93A mice. Therefore, we emphasize that the inhibition of RAGE signaling pathway may be a therapeutic target for neurodegenerative diseases.

Abstract
Ancylostoma ceylanicum is a zoonotic soil-derived nematode that parasitizes the intestines of humans and animals (dogs and cats), leading to malnutrition and iron-deficiency anemia. Helminth parasites secrete calreticulin (CRT), which regulates or blocks the host's immune response. However, no data on A. ceylanicum calreticulin (Ace-CRT) are available. We investigated the biological function of recombinant Ace-CRT (rAce-CRT). rAce-CRT showed reliable antigenicity and stimulated the proliferation of mouse splenocytes and canine peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Quantitative reverse-transcription PCR assays revealed that rAce-CRT primarily promoted the expression of T helper 2 cytokines, particularly IL-13, in canine peripheral blood lymphocytes. rAce-CRT inhibited complement-mediated sheep erythrocyte hemolysis in vitro. Our findings indicate that Ace-CRT plays an immunomodulatory role and may be a promising candidate molecule for a hookworm vaccine.

Abstract
Multiple molecular pathways including the receptor for advanced glycation end-products-diaphanous related formin 1 (RAGE-Diaph1) signaling are known to play a role in diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN). Evidence suggests that neuropathological alterations in type 1 diabetic spinal cord may occur at the same time as or following peripheral nerve abnormalities. We demonstrated that DPN was associated with perturbations of RAGE-Diaph1 signaling pathway in peripheral nerve accompanied by widespread spinal cord molecular changes. More than 500 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) belonging to multiple functional pathways were identified in diabetic spinal cord and of those the most enriched was RAGE-Diaph1 related PI3K-Akt pathway. Only seven of spinal cord DEGs overlapped with DEGs from type 1 diabetic sciatic nerve and only a single gene cathepsin E (CTSE) was common for both type 1 and type 2 diabetic mice. In silico analysis suggests that molecular changes in spinal cord may act synergistically with RAGE-Diaph1 signaling axis in the peripheral nerve. KEY MESSAGES: Molecular perturbations in spinal cord may be involved in the progression of diabetic peripheral neuropathy. Diabetic peripheral neuropathy was associated with perturbations of RAGE-Diaph1 signaling pathway in peripheral nerve accompanied by widespread spinal cord molecular changes. In silico analysis revealed that PI3K-Akt signaling axis related to RAGE-Diaph1 was the most enriched biological pathway in diabetic spinal cord. Cathepsin E may be the target molecular hub for intervention against diabetic peripheral neuropathy.

Abstract
This manuscript reviews the function and fundamental characteristics of the neurotrophins and their receptors to introduce the reader to the differential effects exhibited by the neurotrophins; brain-derived neurotrophic factor and neurotrophin 4/5 when acted together after sequential presentation. The neurotrophin 4/5 exhibits an inhibitory action on the modulatory effect of brain-derived neurotrophic factor in corticostriatal synapses when they are administered sequentially (brain-derived neurotrophic factor to neurotrophin 4/5). This inhibitory effect has not been previously documented and is relevant for these neurotrophins as both of them stimulate the TrkB receptor. The additive effect of these neurotrophins is also discussed and occurs when neurotrophin 4/5 exposure is followed by brain-derived neurotrophic factor in a mouse model of striatal degeneration. Occlusive and additive effects of both neurotrophins are accompanied by changes in the expression of the TrkB receptor isoforms, specifically TrkB-T1 and TrkB-FL, as well as differences in phosphorylation levels of the TrkB receptor. The results of the experiments described raise several questions to inquire about the role that TrkB-T1 receptor plays in striatal physiology, as well as the functional relevance of the interaction of brain-derived neurotrophic factor and neurotrophin 4/5 in the brain and more specifically at the striatal circuits in normal as well as pathological conditions.

Abstract
Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and neurotrophin-4/5 (NT-4/5) are trophic factors belonging to the neurotrophin family; in addition to their trophic role, both neurotrophins play an important role in modulating corticostriatal synaptic transmission. Failures in BDNF supply and mitochondrial dysfunction are among the factors involved in the striatal degeneration that occurs in Huntington's disease (HD). While the effects of BDNF have been widely studied in striatal degeneration, the role of NT-4/5 has been less addressed. NT-4/5 does not appear to exert effects similar to those of BDNF in HD. The physiological roles of these molecules in corticostriatal transmission have been evaluated separately, and we have demonstrated that sequential exposure to both neurotrophins results in different modulatory effects on corticostriatal transmission depending on the exposure order. In the present study, we evaluated the effects of BDNF followed by NT-4/5 or NT-4/5 followed by BDNF on corticostriatal synaptic transmission with field recordings in a male mouse model of HD produced by in vivo treatment with the mitochondrial toxin 3-nitropropionic acid. Here, we show that these neurotrophins elicit an antagonistic or synergistic effect that depends on the activation of the truncated isoform or the stimulation of the full-length isoform of the tropomyosin receptor kinase B.

Brain Regions Showing White Matter Loss in Huntington's Disease Are Enriched for Synaptic and Metabolic Genes. Biol Psychiatry 2018; 83:456-465.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The earliest white matter changes in Huntington's disease are seen before disease onset in the premanifest stage around the striatum, within the corpus callosum, and in posterior white matter tracts. While experimental evidence suggests that these changes may be related to abnormal gene transcription, we lack an understanding of the biological processes driving this regional vulnerability. METHODS Here, we investigate the relationship between regional transcription in the healthy brain, using the Allen Institute for Brain Science transcriptome atlas, and regional white matter connectivity loss at three time points over 24 months in subjects with premanifest Huntington's disease relative to control participants. The baseline cohort included 72 premanifest Huntington's disease participants and 85 healthy control participants. RESULTS We show that loss of corticostriatal, interhemispheric, and intrahemispheric white matter connections at baseline and over 24 months in premanifest Huntington's disease is associated with gene expression profiles enriched for synaptic genes and metabolic genes. Corticostriatal gene expression profiles are predominately associated with motor, parietal, and occipital regions, while interhemispheric expression profiles are associated with frontotemporal regions. We also show that genes with known abnormal transcription in human Huntington's disease and animal models are overrepresented in synaptic gene expression profiles, but not in metabolic gene expression profiles. CONCLUSIONS These findings suggest a dual mechanism of white matter vulnerability in Huntington's disease, in which abnormal transcription of synaptic genes and metabolic disturbance not related to transcription may drive white matter loss.

Abstract
AIMS Neurotrophin-3 (NT-3) is expressed in the mouse striatum; however, it is not clear the NT-3 role in striatal physiology. The expression levels of mRNAs and immune localization of the NT-3 protein and its receptor TrkC are altered in the striatum following damage induced by an in vivo treatment with 3-nitropropionic acid (3-NP), a mitochondrial toxin used to mimic the histopathological hallmarks of Huntington's disease (HD). The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of NT-3 on corticostriatal synaptic transmission and its plasticity in both the control and damaged striatum. METHODS Corticostriatal population spikes were electrophysiologically recorded and striatal synaptic plasticity was induced by high-frequency stimulation. Further, the phosphorylation status of Trk receptors was tested under conditions that imitated electrophysiological experiments. RESULTS NT-3 modulates both synaptic transmission and plasticity in the striatum; nonetheless, synaptic plasticity was modified by the 3-NP treatment, where instead of producing striatal long-term depression (LTD), long-term potentiation (LTP) was obtained. Moreover, the administration of NT-3 in the recording bath restored the plasticity observed under control conditions (LTD) in this model of striatal degeneration. CONCLUSION NT-3 modulates corticostriatal transmission through TrkB stimulation and restores striatal LTD by signaling through its TrkC receptor.
