Open AccessAcinar ATP8b1/LPC pathway promotes macrophage efferocytosis and clearance of inflammation during chronic pancreatitis development
Noninflammatory clearance of dying cells by professional phagocytes, termed efferocytosis, is fundamental in both homeostasis and inflammatory fibrosis disease but has not been confirmed to occur in chronic pa...

Open AccessEMC6 regulates acinar apoptosis via APAF1 in acute and chronic pancreatitis
Treatment of acute pancreatitis (AP) and chronic pancreatitis (CP) remains problematic due to a lack of knowledge about disease-specific regulatory targets and mechanisms. The purpose of this study was to scre...

Satb2 Ablation Impairs Hippocampus-Based Long-Term Spatial Memory and Short-Term Working Memory and Immediate Early Genes (IEGs)-Mediated Hippocampal Synaptic Plasticity
Special AT-rich sequence-binding protein 2 (Satb2) is a protein binding to the matrix attachment regions of DNA and important for gene regulation. Patients with SATB2 mutation usually suffer moderate to severe me...

Open AccessSocial Isolation During Adolescence Strengthens Retention of Fear Memories and Facilitates Induction of Late-Phase Long-Term Potentiation
Social isolation during the vulnerable period of adolescence produces emotional dysregulation that often manifests as abnormal behavior in adulthood. The enduring consequence of isolation might be caused by a ...

Nicotine Inhibits Microglial Proliferation and Is Neuroprotective in Global Ischemia Rats
Ischemic injury in rodent models reliably leads to the activation of microglia, which might play a detrimental role in neuronal survival. Our preliminary studies suggest that nicotine plays a potential role in...

Activation of BKCa Channels Mediates Hippocampal Neuronal Death After Reoxygenation and Reperfusion
Excessive K+ efflux promotes central neuronal apoptosis; however, the type of potassium channel that mediates K+ efflux in response to different apoptosis-inducing stimuli is still unknown. It is hypothesized tha...

Store-Operated Ca2+ Channels Blockers Inhibit Lipopolysaccharide Induced Astrocyte Activation
The destruction of calcium homeostasis is an important factor leading to neurological diseases. Store-operated Ca2+ (SOC) channels are essential for Ca2+ homeostasis in many cell types. However, whether SOC chann...

An L-Type Calcium Channel Agonist, Bay K8644, Extends the Window of Intervention Against Ischemic Neuronal Injury
Our previous data indicate that the inhibition of L-type calcium channels (LTCCs) might be the cause of post-ischemic neuronal injury and that the activation of LTCCs can give rise to neuroprotection. In the p...
