Abstract
Hematopoietic cell kinase (Hck), a non-receptor tyrosine kinase belonging to the Src kinase family, is intricately linked to the pathogenesis of numerous human diseases, with a particularly pronounced association with cancer. Hck not only directly impacts the proliferation, migration, and apoptosis of cancer cells but also interacts with JAK/STAT, MEK/ERK, PI3K/AKT, CXCL12/CXCR4, and other pathways. Hck also influences the tumor microenvironment to facilitate the onset and progression of cancer. This paper delves into the functional role and regulatory mechanisms of Hck in various solid tumors. Additionally, it explores the implications of Hck in hematological malignancies. The review culminates with a summary of the current research status of Hck inhibitors, the majority of which are in the pre-clinical phase of investigation. Notably, these inhibitors are predominantly utilized in the therapeutic management of leukemia, with their combinatorial potential indicating promising avenues for future research. In conclusion, this review underscores the significance of the mechanism of Hck in solid tumors. This insight is crucial for comprehending the current research trends regarding Hck: targeted therapy against Hck shows great promise in both diagnosis and treatment of malignant tumors. Further investigation into the role of Hck in cancer, coupled with the development of specific inhibitors, has the potential to revolutionize approaches to cancer treatment.

Front Immunol 2023; 14:1193053.

Abstract
Adult hippocampal neurogenesis generates functional neurons from neural progenitor cells in the hippocampal dentate gyrus (DG) to complement and repair neurons and neural circuits, thus benefiting the treatment of depression. Increasing evidence has shown that aberrant microglial activity can disrupt the appropriate formation and development of functional properties of neurogenesis, which will play a crucial role in the occurrence and development of depression. However, the mechanisms of the crosstalk between microglia and adult hippocampal neurogenesis in depression are not yet fully understood. Therefore, in this review, we first introduce recent discoveries regarding the roles of microglia and adult hippocampal neurogenesis in the etiology of depression. Then, we systematically discuss the possible mechanisms of how microglia regulate adult hippocampal neurogenesis in depression according to recent studies, which involve toll-like receptors, microglial polarization, fractalkine-C-X3-C motif chemokine receptor 1, hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, cytokines, brain-derived neurotrophic factor, and the microbiota-gut-brain axis, etc. In addition, we summarize the promising drugs that could improve the adult hippocampal neurogenesis by regulating the microglia. These findings will help us understand the complicated pathological mechanisms of depression and shed light on the development of new treatment strategies for this disease.

Abstract
Objective To investigate hippocampal development deviation and its association with cognition in patients with major psychiatric disorders (MPDs), including schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and major depressive disorder. Methods The T1-weighted MRI data of 174 first-episode drug-naïve schizophrenia (FES) atients, 169 bipolar disorder (BD) patients, 184 major depressive disorder (MDD) patients, and 321 healthy controls were collected and their hippocampal volume was extracted after preprocessing with Freesurfer 5.3. A normative neurodevelopment model was applied to calculate the hippocampal deviation scores. Data on cognitive functions, including visual memory, attention, spatial working memory, were collected. Comparison by different sexes was made to identify difference between the hippocampal development deviation scores of the control group and those of the disease groups. We also investigated the moderating effect of age on the deviation score and explored the association between the deviation score and cognitive function. Results The hippocampal development deviation scores of patients with MPDs were significantly lower than those of the healthy controls (false discovery rate [FDR]-P<0.05). Analysis of the moderating effect of age revealed lower deviation scores in young patients (<[25.83-28.56] yr.) and higher deviation scores in old patients (>[35.87-54.35] yr.) in comparison with those of the healthy controls. The right hippocampal deviation scores in male FES patients were positively correlated with the number of errors for tasks concerning spatial working memory ( r=0.32, FDR-P=0.04). Conclusion Our findings suggest abnormal hippocampal development in MPDs patients and its different distribution in MPDs patients of different age groups. The hippocampal development deviation score may provide a new perspective for further understanding of etiology in MPDs.

J Psychiatr Res 2022; 155:401-409. [PMID: 36182770 DOI: 10.1016/j.jpsychires.2022.09.025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/21/2022] [Revised: 08/16/2022] [Accepted: 09/16/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND According to previous studies, myelin damage may be involved in the occurrence of depression. However, to date, no study has quantitatively investigated the changes in myelinated fibers and myelin sheaths in the hippocampal formation (HF) and hippocampal subfields in the context of depression. METHODS Male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats (aged 4-5 weeks) were evenly divided into the control group and chronic unpredictable stress (CUS) group. Behavioral tests were performed, and then changes in myelinated fibers and myelin ultrastructure in hippocampal subfields in depression model rats were investigated using modern stereological methods and transmission electron microscopy techniques. RESULTS After a four-week CUS protocol, CUS rats showed depressive-like and anxiety-like behaviors. The total length and total volume of myelinated fibers were reduced in the CA1 region and DG in the CUS group compared with the control group. The total volumes of myelin sheaths and axons in the CA1 region but not in the DG were significantly lower in the CUS group than in the control group. The decrease in the total length of myelinated nerve fibers in the CA1 region in CUS rats was mainly due to a decrease in the length of myelinated fibers with a myelin sheath thickness of 0.15 μm-0.20 μm. LIMITATIONS The exact relationship between the degeneration of myelin sheaths and depression-like, anxiety-like behaviors needs to be further investigated. CONCLUSIONS CUS induces depression- and anxiety-like behaviors, and the demyelination in the CA1 region induced by 4 weeks of CUS might be an important structural basis for these behaviors.

Abstract
Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a multifactorial disease affected by several environmental factors. Although several potential onset hypotheses have been identified, the molecular mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis of this disorder remain unclear. Several recent studies have suggested that among many environmental factors, inflammation and immune abnormalities in the brain or the peripheral tissues are associated with the onset of MDDs. Furthermore, several stress-related hypotheses have been proposed to explain the onset of MDDs. Thus, inflammation or immune abnormalities can be considered stress responses that occur within the brain or other tissues and are regarded as one of the mechanisms underlying the stress hypothesis of MDDs. Therefore, we introduce several current advances in inflammation studies in the brain that might be related to the pathophysiology of MDD due to stress exposure in this review.
