Abstract
TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL or Apo2 or TNFSF10) belongs to the TNF superfamily. When bound to its agonistic receptors, TRAIL can induce apoptosis in tumour cells, while sparing healthy cells. Over the last three decades, this tumour selectivity has prompted many studies aiming at evaluating the anti-tumoral potential of TRAIL or its derivatives. Although most of these attempts have failed, so far, novel formulations are still being evaluated. However, emerging evidence indicates that TRAIL can also trigger a non-canonical signal transduction pathway that is likely to be detrimental for its use in oncology. Likewise, an increasing number of studies suggest that in some circumstances TRAIL can induce, via Death receptor 5 (DR5), tumour cell motility, potentially leading to and contributing to tumour metastasis. While the pro-apoptotic signal transduction machinery of TRAIL is well known from a mechanistic point of view, that of the non-canonical pathway is less understood. In this study, we the current state of knowledge of TRAIL non-canonical signalling.

Abstract
Perivascular spaces (PVS) are fluid-filled spaces surrounding the brain vasculature. Literature suggests that PVS may play a significant role in aging and neurological disorders, including Alzheimer's disease (AD). Cortisol, a stress hormone, has been implicated in the development and progression of AD. Hypertension, a common condition in older adults, has been found to be a risk factor for AD. Hypertension may contribute to PVS enlargement, impairing the clearance of waste products from the brain and promoting neuroinflammation. This study aims to understand the potential interactions between PVS, cortisol, hypertension, and inflammation in the context of cognitive impairment. Using MRI scans acquired at 1.5T, PVS were quantified in a cohort of 465 individuals with cognitive impairment. PVS was calculated in the basal ganglia and centrum semiovale using an automated segmentation approach. Levels of cortisol and angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) (an indicator of hypertension) were measured from plasma. Inflammatory biomarkers, such as cytokines and matrix metalloproteinases, were analyzed using advanced laboratory techniques. Main effect and interaction analyses were performed to examine the associations between PVS severity, cortisol levels, hypertension, and inflammatory biomarkers. In the centrum semiovale, higher levels of inflammation reduced cortisol associations with PVS volume fraction. For ACE, an inverse association with PVS was seen only when interacting with TNFr2 (a transmembrane receptor of TNF). There was also a significant inverse main effect of TNFr2. In the PVS basal ganglia, a significant positive association was found with TRAIL (a TNF receptor inducing apoptosis). These findings show for the first time the intricate relationships between PVS structure and the levels of stress-related, hypertension, and inflammatory biomarkers. This research could potentially guide future studies regarding the underlying mechanisms of AD pathogenesis and the potential development of novel therapeutic strategies targeting these inflammation factors.

Abstract
Ischemic stroke is the leading cause of death and disability worldwide, and restoring the blood flow to ischemic brain tissues is currently the main therapeutic strategy. However, reperfusion after brain ischemia leads to excessive reactive oxygen species production, inflammatory cell recruitment, the release of inflammatory mediators, cell death, mitochondrial dysfunction, endoplasmic reticulum stress, and blood–brain barrier damage; these pathological mechanisms will further aggravate brain tissue injury, ultimately affecting the recovery of neurological functions. It has attracted the attention of researchers to develop drugs with multitarget intervention effects for individuals with cerebral ischemia. A large number of studies have established that curcumin plays a significant neuroprotective role in cerebral ischemia via various mechanisms, including antioxidation, anti-inflammation, anti-apoptosis, protection of the blood–brain barrier, and restoration of mitochondrial function and structure, restoring cerebral circulation, reducing infarct volume, improving brain edema, promoting blood–brain barrier repair, and improving the neurological functions. Therefore, summarizing the results from the latest literature and identifying the potential mechanisms of action of curcumin in cerebral ischemia will serve as a basis and guidance for the clinical applications of curcumin in the future.

Abstract
T-cell immunotherapy holds promise for the treatment of cancer, infection, and autoimmune diseases. Nevertheless, T-cell therapy is limited by low cell expansion efficiency ex vivo and functional deficits. Here we describe two 3D bioprinting systems made by different biomaterials that mimic the in vivo formation of natural lymph vessels and lymph nodes which modulate T-cell with distinct fates and functions. We observe that coaxial alginate fibers promote T-cell expansion, less exhausted and enable CD4+ T-cell differentiation into central memory-like phenotype (Tcm), CD8+ T-cells differentiation into effector memory subsets (Tem), while alginate-gelatin scaffolds bring T-cells into a relatively resting state. Both of the two bioprinting methods are strikingly different from a standard suspension system. The former bioprinting method yields a new system for T-cell therapy and the latter method can be useful for making an immune-chip to elucidate links between immune response and disease.

Abstract
Tumour necrosis factor–related apoptosis‐inducing ligand (TRAIL) is a member of the tumour necrosis factor (TNF) superfamily which mainly induces apoptosis of tumour cells and transformed cell lines with no systemic toxicity, whereas they share high sequence homology with TNF and CD95L. These unique effects of TRAIL have made it an important molecule in oncology research. However, the research on TRAIL‐related antineoplastic agents has lagged behind and has been limited by the extensive drug resistance in cancer cells. Given the several findings showing that TRAIL is involved in immune regulation and other pleiotropic biological effects in non‐malignant cells, TRAIL and its receptors have attracted widespread attention from researchers. In the central nervous system (CNS), TRAIL is highly correlated with malignant tumours such as glioma and other non‐neoplastic disorders such as acute brain injury, CNS infection and neurodegenerative disease. Many clinical and animal studies have revealed the dual roles of TRAIL in which it causes damage by inducing cell apoptosis, and confers protection by enhancing both pro‐ and non‐apoptosis effects in different neurological disorders and at different sites or stages. Its pro‐apoptotic effect produces a pro‐survival effect that cannot be underestimated. This review extensively covers in vitro and in vivo experiments and clinical studies investigating TRAIL. It also provides a summary of the current knowledge on the TRAIL signalling pathway and its involvement in pathogenesis, diagnosis and therapeutics of CNS disorders as a basis for future research.
