Electroacupuncture Ameliorates Alcohol‐Related Cognitive Impairment by Modulating the Gut‐Brain Axis to Alleviate LPS Driven Neuroinflammation
Objective: To investigate whether electroacupuncture (EA) at Zusanli (ST36) ameliorates alcohol‐related cognitive impairment (ARCI) by restoring intestinal barrier integrity and to elucidate the role of the vagus nerve in this “gut‐to‐br...

Fingolimod Alleviates Neuroinflammation and Blood–Brain Barrier Disruption in Epilepsy by Upregulating S1PR5 and Inhibiting the Rho/ ROCK / NF ‐ κB Pathway
Objective: This study aimed to clarify the role of sphingosine‐1‐phosphate receptor 5 (S1PR5) in epileptic pathogenesis and the mechanism by which fingolimod exerts anti‐epileptic effects, with a focus on neuroinflammation and blood–brai...

Inhibition of Cerebellar Dentate Nucleus‐Zona Incerta Glutamatergic Circuit Improves Sleep Disturbances in Chronic Temporal Lobe Epilepsy Model
Background: Patients with chronic temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) frequently experience various sleep disorders, characterized by reduced sleep duration, diminished sleep stages, and disrupted sleep patterns. Recent research has identified ...

PANoptosis In Microglia and Neurons Following Traumatic CNS Injury: A Systematic Review of Pathological Features and Therapeutic Implications
Background: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) and spinal cord injury (SCI) induce PANoptosis, a pro‐inflammatory programmed cell death modality orchestrated by the PANoptosome. This modality integrates pyroptosis, apoptosis, and necroptosis m...

MAFG as a Redox‐Sensitive Node Linking Peripheral Immune Reprogramming to Cognitive Risk in the Sepsis‐to‐Alzheimer's Disease Continuum: Single‐Cell Dissection and Adoptive‐Transfer Validation
Background: Sepsis survivors face an elevated long‐term risk of Alzheimer's disease (AD), yet the peripheral pathways linking systemic immune activation to chronic neurodegeneration remain undefined. We mapped peripheral immune reprogram...

Sex‐Specific Effects of Dexmedetomidine on Brain Microvascular Endothelial Cell Function After Traumatic Brain Injury in Juvenile Mice
Aims: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of dexmedetomidine (DEX), a selective α2‐adrenergic receptor agonist, on brain microvascular endothelial cell (BMEC) function and blood–brain barrier (BBB) integrity in juvenile mice followi...

Whole‐Exome Sequencing Reveals the Genetic Landscape and Genotype–Phenotype Spectrum of Dystonia in a Chinese Cohort
Aims: To systematically characterize the genetic landscape of dystonia in a Mainland Chinese cohort, where over 60% of patients currently lack a molecular diagnosis due to limited large‐scale genomic studies. Methods: Whole‐exome sequenc...

RAF1 Promotes Gstt1‐Mediated Ferroptosis by Promoting KDM1A Recruitment to Facilitate Pilocarpine‐Induced Acute Seizure‐Associated Neuronal Injury
Background: Seizures can cause progressive neuronal damage. Our previous studies found that RAF1 mediates vitamin D's alleviation of seizures, but the mechanism by which RAF1 acts in seizures remains unclear. Methods: The pilocarpine‐ind...

Connectivity‐Guided Individualized iTBS of the Posterior Parietal Cortex in Enduring Anorexia Nervosa: Network‐Level Target Engagement and Multimodal Response in a Single Case
Aims: Anorexia nervosa (AN) is a severe, often enduring disorder with scarce biological treatments, largely unable to address its core implicit features: habit‐like food restriction and body‐experience disturbances. We report a single‐ca...
