Morin post-treatment surpassed calpeptin in ameliorating 3-NP-induced cortical neurotoxicity via modulation of glutamate/calpain axis, Kidins220, and BDNF/TrkB/AKT/CREB trajectory.

Abstract
The neuroprotective capacity of morin hydrate (MH), a potent antioxidant flavonoid, and calpeptin (CP), a calpain inhibitor, was documented against different insults but not Huntington's disease (HD). Accordingly, we aim to assess the neuroprotective potential of MH and/or CP in a 3-nitropropionic acid (3-NP)-induced HD model. The 3-NP-treated rats were post-treated with saline, MH, CP, or MH + CP for a week. Post-treatment with MH and/or CP amended motor function (beam walking test) and short-/ long-term spatial memory (novel object recognition test) and improved cortical microscopic architecture. On the molecular level, MH, and to a lesser extent CP, inhibited the cortical content/expression of glutamate, calpain, and Kidins220 and abated the inflammatory molecules, nuclear factor (NF)-κB, tumor necrosis factor-α, and interleukin-1β, as well as lipid peroxidation. However, MH, but barely CP, activated the molecules of the neuroprotective trajectory; viz., brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), tropomyosin-related kinase receptor B (TrkB), protein kinase B (AKT), and cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB). Compared to the single treatments, the combination regimen mediated further reductions in the cortical contents of glutamate, calpain, and Kidins220, effects that extended to entail the anti-inflammatory/anti-oxidant potentials of MH and to a greater extent CP. However, the combination of MH strengthened the fair effect of CP on the survival signaling pathway BDNF/TrkB/AKT/CREB. In conclusion, MH, CP, and especially their combination, afforded neuroprotection against HD through curbing the glutamate/calpain axis, Kidins220, as well as NF-κB-mediated neuroinflammation/oxidative stress, besides activating the BDNF/TrkB/AKT/CREB hub that was partly dependent on calpain inhibition.

Abstract
Development of an organ and subsequently the whole system from an embryo is a highly integrated process. Although there is evidence that different systems are interconnected during developmental stages, the molecular understanding of this relationship is either not known or only to a limited extent. Nervous system development, amongst all, is maybe the most crucial and complex process. It relies on the correct distribution of specific neuronal growth factors and hormones to the specific receptors. Among the plethora of proteins that are involved in downstream signalling of neuronal growth factors, we find the kinase-D interacting substrate of 220 kDa (KIDINS220), also known as ankyrin-rich repeat membrane spanning (ARMS) protein. KIDINS220 has been shown to play a substantial role in the nervous system and vascular system development as well as in neuronal survival and differentiation. It serves as a downstream regulator for many important neuronal and vascular growth factors such as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), the neurotrophin family, glutamate receptors and ephrin receptors. Moreover, activation and differentiation of B- and T-cells, as well as tumour cell proliferation has also shown to be related to KIDINS220. This review comprehensively summarises the existing research data on this protein, with a particular interest in its role in cancer and in other pathologies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The ion channel TRPV1 is mainly expressed in small diameter dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons, which are involved in the sensation of acute noxious thermal and chemical stimuli. Direct modifications of the channel by diverse signalling events have been intensively investigated, but little is known about the composition of modulating macromolecular TRPV1 signalling complexes. Here, we hypothesize that the novel adaptor protein ankyrin-rich membrane spanning protein/kinase D interacting substrate (ARMS) interacts with TRPV1 and modulates its function in rodent DRG neurons. METHODS We used immunohistochemistry, electrophysiology, microfluorimetry and immunoprecipitation experiments to investigate TRPV1 and ARMS interactions in DRG neurons and transfected cells. RESULTS We found that TRPV1 and ARMS are co-expressed in a subpopulation of DRG neurons. ARMS sensitizes TRPV1 towards capsaicin in transfected HEK 293 cells and in mouse DRG neurons in a PKA-dependent manner. Using a combination of functional imaging and immunocytochemistry, we show that the magnitude of the capsaicin response in DRG neurons depends not only on TRPV1 expression, but on the co-expression of ARMS alongside TRPV1. CONCLUSION These data indicate that ARMS is an important component of the signalling complex regulating the sensitivity of TRPV1. SIGNIFICANCE The study identifies ARMS as an important component of the signalling complex regulating the sensitivity of excitatory ion channels (TRPV1) in peripheral sensory neurons (DRG neurons) and transfected cells.

Abstract
Schisandra chinensis (SC) and its main constituent, schizandrin (SCH) exhibit anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic activities. Allergic and inflammatory reactions are aggravated via caspase-1 signaling pathway. However, the regulatory effects of SC and SCH on caspase-1 activation have not been clarified yet. In this study, we aimed to clarify the anti-allergic effects of SC and SCH using an ovalbumin (OVA)-sensitized mice and anti-CD3 and anti-CD28 antibodies-stimulated splenocytes. SC or SCH significantly inhibited the levels of immunoglobulin (Ig)E, IgG1, or interleukin (IL)-4 in serum of OVA-sensitized mice. SC or SCH significantly inhibited the levels of IL-6, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-[Formula: see text], and IL-1[Formula: see text] in spleen of the OVA-sensitized mice. SC or SCH significantly suppressed the expression of caspase-1 and receptor-interacting protein (RIP)-2 in spleen of the OVA-sensitized mice. In activated splenocytes, SC or SCH significantly decreased the expression of caspase-1 and RIP-2 as well as the production of IL-6 and TNF-[Formula: see text]. We suggest that SC and SCH exert an anti-allergic effect by down-regulating caspase-1 signaling.

J Neurovirol 2015; 21:186-98.

Abstract
Long-term persistence of human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV) in the central nervous system (CNS) results in mild to severe neurocognitive impairment in a significant proportion of the HIV-infected population. These neurological deficits are known as HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders (HAND). Microglia are CNS-resident immune cells that are directly infected by HIV and consequently secrete proinflammatory molecules that contribute to HIV-induced neuroinflammation. Indeed, the number of activated macrophage and microglia in the brain is more highly correlated with cognitive impairment than the amount of neuronal apoptosis. Ankyrin-rich membrane spanning protein (ARMS/Kidins220) is a multidomain transmembrane protein that is involved with neurotrophin signaling in the CNS. We have previously established the role of ARMS in mediating neuronal survival via a neurotrophin-dependent mechanism. Recent reports also have suggested that ARMS is involved with cell signaling in multiple immune cell types. In this study, we aim to investigate the role of ARMS in HIV Tat-mediated microglial cell activation by employing in vitro methods. Following ARMS depletion by a lentivirus encoding ARMS-specific short hairpin RNA (shRNA), we observed a marked reduction in the HIV Tat-induced proinflammatory response, associated with loss of tumor necrosis factor alpha production and nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) activation. Furthermore, co-immunoprecipitation studies suggested that ARMS physically interacts with inhibitory kappa B kinase subunits in order to facilitate NF-κB activation. Our results establish the role of ARMS in microglial activation by HIV Tat and warrant additional studies to better understand these molecular mechanisms, which may uncover novel therapeutic targets for the treatment of HAND.
