Abstract
Gouty arthritis (GA) is an inflammatory disease caused by monosodium urate (MSU) crystals deposited in the joint tissues causing severe pain. The disease can recur frequently and tends to form tophus in the joints. Current therapeutic drugs for the acute phase of GA have many side effects and limitations, are unable to prevent recurrent GA attacks and tophus formation, and overall efficacy is unsatisfactory. Therefore, we need to advance research on the microscopic mechanism of GA and seek safer and more effective drugs through relevant targets to block the GA disease process. Current research shows that the pathogenesis of GA is closely related to NLRP3 inflammation, oxidative stress, MAPK, NET, autophagy, and Ferroptosis. However, after synthesizing and sorting out the above mechanisms, it is found that the presence of ROS is throughout almost the entire spectrum of micro-mechanisms of the gout disease process, which combines multiple immune responses to form a large network diagram of complex and tight connections involved in the GA disease process. Current studies have shown that inflammation, oxidative stress, cell necrosis, and pathological signs of GA in GA joint tissues can be effectively suppressed by modulating ROS network-related targets. In this article, on the one hand, we investigated the generative mechanism of ROS network generation and its association with GA. On the other hand, we explored the potential of related targets for the treatment of gout and the prevention of tophus formation, which can provide effective reference ideas for the development of highly effective drugs for the treatment of GA.

Abstract
Stroke is a prevalent global acute cerebrovascular condition, with ischaemic stroke being the most frequently occurring type. After a stroke, neutrophils accumulate in the brain and subsequently generate and release neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs). The accumulation of NETs exacerbates the impairment of the blood‒brain barrier (BBB), hampers neovascularization, induces notable neurological deficits, worsens the prognosis of stroke patients, and can facilitate the occurrence of t-PA-induced cerebral haemorrhage subsequent to ischaemic stroke. Alternative approaches to pharmacological thrombolysis or endovascular thrombectomy are being explored, and targeting NETs is a promising treatment that warrants further investigation.

Lochhead JJ, Ronaldson PT, Davis TP. The role of oxidative stress in blood-brain barrier disruption during ischemic stroke: Antioxidants in clinical trials. Biochem Pharmacol 2024:116186.

Abstract
Ischemic stroke is one of the leading causes of death and disability. Occlusion and reperfusion of cerebral blood vessels (i.e., ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury) generates reactive oxygen species (ROS) that contribute to brain cell death and dysfunction of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) via oxidative stress. BBB disruption influences the pathogenesis of ischemic stroke by contributing to cerebral edema, hemorrhagic transformation, and extravasation of circulating neurotoxic proteins. An improved understanding of mechanisms for ROS-associated alterations in BBB function during ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury can lead to improved treatment paradigms for ischemic stroke. Unfortunately, progress in developing ROS targeted therapeutics that are effective for stroke treatment has been slow. Here, we review how ROS are produced in response to I/R injury, their effects on BBB integrity (i.e., tight junction protein complexes, transporters), and the utilization of antioxidant treatments in ischemic stroke clinical trials. Overall, knowledge in this area provides a strong translational framework for discovery of novel drugs for stroke and/or improved strategies to mitigate I/R injury in stroke patients.

Abstract
This study focused on molecular docking, dynamic simulation, and in vivo approaches to examine the molecular interactions between citronellal (CT) and neurotoxic proteins. In silico studies of CT were performed using proteins involved in the pathophysiology of stroke, such as interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-12 (IL-12), TNF-α, and nitric oxide synthase (NOS), to determine the binding affinity based on their interactions. The docking results of CT revealed that, among the targets, NOS had a better binding energy of -6.4 Kcal/mol. NOS showed good hydrophobic interactions: TYR A, 347; VAL A, 352; PRO A, 350; TYR A, 373 amino acids. Interactions with IL-6, TNF-α, and IL-12 resulted in lower binding affinities of -3.7, -3.9 and -3.1 Kcal/mol. Based on molecular dynamics simulations of 100 ns, the binding affinity of CT (-66.782 ± 7.309 kJ/mol) was well complemented, and NOS stability at the docked site was confirmed. In in vivo studies, cerebral stroke was induced by occlusion of the bilateral common carotid arteries for 30 min and reperfusion for 4 h. CT treatment protected the brain by decreasing cerebral infarction size, increasing GSH(p < 0.001***), decreasing MPO (p < 0.001***), MDA (p < 0.001***), NO production (p < 0.01**), and AChE (p < 0.001***) compared to stroke rats. Histopathological examination revealed that CT treatment reduced the severity of cerebral damage. The investigation concluded that CT strongly binds to NOS, as observed in molecular docking and dynamic simulation studies, which are involved in nitric oxide production, leading to cerebral damage, and CT treatment reduces NO production and oxidative stress parameters, and increases antioxidants via inhibition of NOS function.Communicated by Ramaswamy H.

Abstract
Ischemia is a significant pathogenetic factor of stroke with very limited treatment options. The objective of our research was to evaluate the protective properties of indole-3-carbinol (I3C) and its effect on redox status parameters, inflammation, and apoptosis intensity in cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury (CIRI) in rats. I3C administration to CIRI rats decreased levels of oxidative stress markers and improved aerobic metabolism compared to the animals with CIRI. A decrease in myeloperoxidase activity, proinflammatory cytokines mRNA levels, and expression of redox-sensitive factor Nuclear Factor-κB was observed in rats with CIRI that received I3C. I3C-treated rats with pathology showed decreased caspase activity and apoptosis-inducing factor expression, compared to the animals in the CIRI group. Obtained data indicate that I3C has a neuroprotective and anti-ischemic effect in CIRI that may be related to its antioxidant properties and ability to reduce the inflammatory response and apoptosis.

Abstract
Ischemic strokes occur when the blood supply to a part of the brain is interrupted or reduced due to arterial blockage, and it often leads to damage to brain cells or death. According to a myriad of experimental studies, oxidative stress is an important pathophysiological mechanism of ischemic stroke. In this narrative review, we aimed to identify how the alterations of oxidative stress biomarkers could suggest a severity-reflecting diagnosis of ischemic stroke and how these interactions may provide new molecular targets for neuroprotective therapies. We performed an eligibility criteria-based search on three main scientific databases. We found that patients with acute ischemic stroke are characterized by increased oxidative stress markers levels, such as the total antioxidant capacity, F2-isoprostanes, hydroxynonenal, total and perchloric acid oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORACTOT and ORACPCA), malondialdehyde (MDA), myeloperoxidase, and urinary 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2′-deoxyguanosine. Thus, acute ischemic stroke is causing significant oxidative stress and associated molecular and cellular damage. The assessment of these molecular markers could be useful in diagnosing ischemic stroke, finding its causes, predicting its severity and outcomes, reducing its impact on the cellular structures of the brain, and guiding preventive treatment towards antioxidant-based therapy as novel therapeutic alternatives.

Abstract
Cerebrovascular diseases and the subsequent brain hypoperfusion are at the basis of vascular dementia. Dyslipidemia, marked by an increase in circulating levels of triglycerides and LDL-cholesterol and a parallel decrease in HDL-cholesterol, in turn, is pivotal in promoting atherosclerosis which represents a common feature of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. In this regard, HDL-cholesterol has traditionally been considered as being protective from a cardiovascular and a cerebrovascular prospective. However, emerging evidence suggests that their quality and functionality play a more prominent role than their circulating levels in shaping cardiovascular health and possibly cognitive function. Furthermore, the quality of lipids embedded in circulating lipoproteins represents another key discriminant in modulating cardiovascular disease, with ceramides being proposed as a novel risk factor for atherosclerosis. This review highlights the role of HDL lipoprotein and ceramides in cerebrovascular diseases and the repercussion on vascular dementia. Additionally, the manuscript provides an up-to-date picture of the impact of saturated and omega-3 fatty acids on HDL circulating levels, functionality and ceramide metabolism.

Abstract
Hemorrhagic stroke is the deadliest form of stroke and includes the subtypes of intracerebral hemorrhage and subarachnoid hemorrhage. A common cause of hemorrhagic stroke in older individuals is cerebral amyloid angiopathy. Intracerebral hemorrhage and subarachnoid hemorrhage both lead to the rapid collection of blood in the central nervous system and generate inflammatory immune responses that involve both brain resident and infiltrating immune cells. These responses are complex and can contribute to both tissue recovery and tissue injury. Despite the interconnectedness of these major subtypes of hemorrhagic stroke, few reviews have discussed them collectively. The present review provides an update on inflammatory processes that occur in response to intracerebral hemorrhage and subarachnoid hemorrhage, and the role of inflammation in the pathophysiology of cerebral amyloid angiopathy-related hemorrhage. The goal is to highlight inflammatory processes that underlie disease pathology and recovery. We aim to discuss recent advances in our understanding of these conditions and identify gaps in knowledge with the potential to develop effective therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
The present volume is the third in a trilogy that documents naturally occurring organohalogen compounds, bringing the total number-from fewer than 25 in 1968-to approximately 8000 compounds to date. Nearly all of these natural products contain chlorine or bromine, with a few containing iodine and, fewer still, fluorine. Produced by ubiquitous marine (algae, sponges, corals, bryozoa, nudibranchs, fungi, bacteria) and terrestrial organisms (plants, fungi, bacteria, insects, higher animals) and universal abiotic processes (volcanos, forest fires, geothermal events), organohalogens pervade the global ecosystem. Newly identified extraterrestrial sources are also documented. In addition to chemical structures, biological activity, biohalogenation, biodegradation, natural function, and future outlook are presented.

Abstract
Objectives (1) To clarify the dynamic relationship between the expression of myeloperoxidase (MPO) and microglial activation of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), (2) to explore the effect of inhibition of MPO on microglial activation, and (3) to observe the improvement in the neurobehavior of mice with inhibition of MPO. Methods C57 BL/6 mice and CX3CR1 + /GFP mice were used to establish a phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) group, an ICH group, and a 4-aminobenzoic acid hydrazide (ABAH) group. Longa score, open field locomotion, hind-limb clasping test, immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence, blood routine detection, and flow cytometry were used. Results The neurobehavior of the mice was significantly impaired following ICH (P < 0.01); the expression of MPO was significantly increased following ICH, and reached a peak value at 6 h post-injury (P < 0.001). Moreover, the microglial activation increased significantly following ICH, and reached a peak level at 24 h post-injury (P < 0.01). Following inhibition of MPO, the activation of microglia in the ICH group decreased significantly (P < 0.001). Moreover, the neurobehavior of the ICH group was significantly improved with MPO inhibition (P < 0.05). Conclusion MPO may be an upstream molecule activated by microglia and following inhibition of MPO can improve secondary injury resulting from ICH.

Abstract
Leukocyte migration into the central nervous system (CNS) represents a central process in the development of neurological diseases with a detrimental inflammatory component. Infiltrating neutrophils have been detected inside the brain of patients with several neuroinflammatory disorders, including stroke, multiple sclerosis and Alzheimer’s disease. During inflammatory responses, these highly reactive innate immune cells can rapidly extravasate and release a plethora of pro-inflammatory and cytotoxic factors, potentially inducing significant collateral tissue damage. Indeed, several studies have shown that neutrophils promote blood-brain barrier damage and increased vascular permeability during neuroinflammatory diseases. Recent studies have shown that neutrophils migrate into the meninges and choroid plexus, suggesting these cells can also damage the blood-cerebrospinal fluid barrier (BCSFB). In this review, we discuss the emerging role of neutrophils in the dysfunction of brain barriers across different neuroinflammatory conditions and describe the molecular basis and cellular interplays involved in neutrophil-mediated injury of the CNS borders.
