Amygdala neuronal dyshomeostasis via 5-HT receptors mediates mood and cognitive defects in Alzheimer's disease.

Behavioral changes or neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPSs) are common features in dementia and are associated with accelerated cognitive impairment and earlier deaths. However, how NPSs are intertwined with cognitive decline remains elusive. In this study, we identify that the basolateral amygdala (BLA) is a key brain region that is associated with mood disorders and memory decline in the AD course. During the process from pre- to post-onset in AD, the dysfunction of parvalbumin (PV) interneurons and pyramidal neurons in the amygdala leads to hyperactivity of pyramidal neurons in the basal state and insensitivity to external stimuli. We further demonstrate that serotonin (5-HT) receptors in distinct neurons synergistically regulate the BLA microcircuit of AD rather than 5-HT levels, in which both restrained inhibitory inputs by excessive 5-HT1AR signaling in PV interneurons and depolarized pyramidal neurons via upregulated 5-HT2AR contribute to aberrant neuronal hyperactivity. Downregulation of these two 5-HT receptors simultaneously enables neurons to resist ß-amyloid peptides (Aß) neurotoxicity and ameliorates the mood and cognitive defects. Therefore, our study reveals a crucial role of 5-HT receptors for regulating neuronal homeostasis in AD pathogenesis, and this would provide early intervention and potential targets for AD cognitive decline.

Immunological nanomaterials to combat cancer metastasis.

Metastasis causes greater than 90% of cancer-associated deaths, presenting huge challenges for detection and efficient treatment of cancer due to its high heterogeneity and widespread dissemination to various organs. Therefore, it is imperative to combat cancer metastasis, which is the key to achieving complete cancer eradication. Immunotherapy as a systemic approach has shown promising potential to combat metastasis. However, current clinical immunotherapies are not effective for all patients or all types of cancer metastases owing to insufficient immune responses. In recent years, immunological nanomaterials with intrinsic immunogenicity or immunomodulatory agents with efficient loading have been shown to enhance immune responses to eliminate metastasis. In this review, we would like to summarize various types of immunological nanomaterials against metastasis. Moreover, this review will summarize a series of immunological nanomaterial-mediated immunotherapy strategies to combat metastasis, including immunogenic cell death, regulation of chemokines and cytokines, improving the immunosuppressive tumour microenvironment, activation of the STING pathway, enhancing cytotoxic natural killer cell activity, enhancing antigen presentation of dendritic cells, and enhancing chimeric antigen receptor T cell therapy. Furthermore, the synergistic anti-metastasis strategies based on the combinational use of immunotherapy and other therapeutic modalities will also be introduced. In addition, the nanomaterial-mediated imaging techniques (e.g., optical imaging, magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography, photoacoustic imaging, surface-enhanced Raman scattering, radionuclide imaging, etc.) for detecting metastasis and monitoring anti-metastasis efficacy are also summarized. Finally, the current challenges and future prospects of immunological nanomaterial-based anti-metastasis are also elucidated with the intention to accelerate its clinical translation.

Carrier-Free Self-Assembly Nano-Sonosensitizers for Sonodynamic-Amplified Cuproptosis-Ferroptosis in Glioblastoma Therapy.

Cuproptosis is a newly discovered form of programmed cell death significantly depending on the transport efficacy of copper (Cu) ionophores. However, existing Cu ionophores, primarily small molecules with a short blood half-life, face challenges in transporting enough amounts of Cu ions into tumor cells. This work describes the construction of carrier-free nanoparticles (Ce6@Cu NPs), which self-assembled by the coordination of Cu2+ with the sonosensitizer chlorin e6 (Ce6), facilitating sonodynamic-triggered combination of cuproptosis and ferroptosis. Ce6@Cu NPs internalized by U87MG cells induce a sonodynamic effect and glutathione (GSH) depletion capability, promoting lipid peroxidation and eventually inducing ferroptosis. Furthermore, Cu+ concentration in tumor cells significantly increases as Cu2+ reacts with reductive GSH, resulting in the downregulation of ferredoxin-1 and lipoyl synthase. This induces the oligomerization of lipoylated dihydrolipoamide S-acetyltransferase, causing proteotoxic stress and irreversible cuproptosis. Ce6@Cu NPs possess a satisfactory ability to penetrate the blood-brain barrier, resulting in significant accumulation in orthotopic U87MG-Luc glioblastoma. The sonodynamic-triggered combination of ferroptosis and cuproptosis in the tumor by Ce6@Cu NPs is evidenced both in vitro and in vivo with minimal side effects. This work represents a promising tumor therapeutic strategy combining ferroptosis and cuproptosis, potentially inspiring further research in developing logical and effective cancer therapies based on cuproptosis.

Advancing nanotechnology for neoantigen-based cancer theranostics.

Neoantigens play a pivotal role in the field of tumour therapy, encompassing the stimulation of anti-tumour immune response and the enhancement of tumour targeting capability. Nonetheless, numerous factors directly influence the effectiveness of neoantigens in bolstering anti-tumour immune responses, including neoantigen quantity and specificity, uptake rates by antigen-presenting cells (APCs), residence duration within the tumour microenvironment (TME), and their ability to facilitate the maturation of APCs for immune response activation. Nanotechnology assumes a significant role in several aspects, including facilitating neoantigen release, promoting neoantigen delivery to antigen-presenting cells, augmenting neoantigen uptake by dendritic cells, shielding neoantigens from protease degradation, and optimizing interactions between neoantigens and the immune system. Consequently, the development of nanotechnology synergistically enhances the efficacy of neoantigens in cancer theranostics. In this review, we provide an overview of neoantigen sources, the mechanisms of neoantigen-induced immune responses, and the evolution of precision neoantigen-based nanomedicine. This encompasses various therapeutic modalities, such as neoantigen-based immunotherapy, phototherapy, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, chemodynamic therapy, and other strategies tailored to augment precision in cancer therapeutics. We also discuss the current challenges and prospects in the application of neoantigen-based precision nanomedicine, aiming to expedite its clinical translation.

A D-Y Shaped Neuropeptide Y Mimetic Peptide-Dye Self-Assembly with Maximal Emission Beyond 1300 nm and Glioma Mitochondrial Activity Modulation.

Neuropeptide Y (NPY), as one of the most abundant neuropeptides known, is widely distributed in the central and peripheral nervous system. However, most of the reported NPY-mimetic peptides are hard to cross the blood-brain barrier, target glioma mitochondria, and achieve self-assembly nanostructure in situ. Here, based on the α-helix structure of the novel chiral NPY-mimetic peptides D/LNPY(14), a Y-shaped peptide is designed with the sequences that can be recognized by enterokinase and achieved nanofibers conversion in glioma cell mitochondria. Coupling the Y-shaped NPY-mimetic peptide with the NIR-II fluorophore IR1048, a red-shifting of the fluorescence spectrum beyond 1300 nm is achieved through self-assembly. After the self-assembly in glioma mitochondria, the formed nanofibers can promote intracellular mitochondrial ROS production and extend the NIR-II fluorescence imaging time to at least 7 days in vivo. This work for the first time endows the self-assembly of α-helical-based chiral NPY-mimetic peptides, providing a novel strategy for glioma subcellular regulation enhanced antitumor treatment guided by NIR-II fluorescence imaging.

Platelet-Membrane-Coated Polydopamine Nanoparticles for Neuroprotection by Reducing Oxidative Stress and Repairing Damaged Vessels in Intracerebral Hemorrhage.

Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) has a high morbidity and mortality rate. Excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) caused by primary and second brain injury can induce neuron death and inhibit neurological functional recovery after ICH. Therefore, exploring an effective way to noninvasively target hemorrhage sites to scavenge ROS is urgently needed. Inspired by the biological function of platelets to target injury vessel and repair injury blood vessels, platelet-membrane-modified polydopamine (Menp@PLT) nanoparticles are developed with targeting to hemorrhage sites of ICH. Results demonstrate that Menp@PLT nanoparticles can effectively achieve targeting to the location of intracranial hematoma. Furthermore, Menp@PLT with excellent anti-ROS properties can scavenge ROS and improve neuroinflammation microenvironment of ICH. In addition, Menp@PLT may play a role in decreasing hemorrhage volume by repairing injury blood vessels. Combining platelet membrane and anti-ROS nanoparticles for targeting brain hemorrhage sites provide a promising strategy for efficiently treating ICH.

Changes in biochemical metabolites in manila clam after a temporary culture with high-quality microalgal feed mixed with the dinoflagellate species Karlodinium veneficum and K. zhouanum.

Phytoplankton composition is an important factor affecting the growth and physiological biochemical characteristics of filter-feeding bivalves. With the increasing trend in dinoflagellate biomass and blooms in mariculture areas, how the physio-biochemical traits and seafood quality of the mariculture organism are affected by the dinoflagellates, especially those at nonfatal levels, is not well understood. Different densities of two Karlodinium species, namely K. veneficum (KV) and K. zhouanum (KZ), mixed with high quality microalgal food Isochrysis galbana was applied in feeding manila clam Ruditapes philippinarum in a 14-day temporary culture, to comparatively study how the critical biochemical metabolites such as glycogen, free amino acids (FAAs), fatty acids (FAs), volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in the clam were affected. The survival rate of the clam showed dinoflagellate density and species specificity. The high-density KV group inhibited survival to 32% lower than that of the pure I. galbana control, respectively, while KZ at low concentrations did not significantly affect the survival compared with the control. In the high-density KV group, the glycogen and FAA contents decreased (p < 0.05), indicating that energy and protein metabolism were significantly affected. Amount of carnosine (49.91 ± 14.64 to 84.74 ± 8.59 µg/g of muscle wet weight) was detected in all the dinoflagellate-mixed groups, while it was not present in the field samples or in the pure I. galbana control, showing that carnosine participated in the anti-stress activities when the clam was exposed to the dinoflagellates. The global composition of FAs did not significantly vary among the groups. However, contents of the endogenous C18 PUFA precursors linoleic acid and α-linolenic acid significantly decreased in the high-density KV group compared to all the other groups, indicating that high density of KV affected the metabolisms of fatty acids. From the results of the changed VOC composition, oxidation of fatty acids and degradation of free amino acids might occur in the clams exposed to dinoflagellates. The increased VOCs, such as aldehydes, and decreased 1-octen-3-ol probably produced a more fishy taste and reduced food flavor quality when the clam was exposed to the dinoflagellates. This present study demonstrated that the biochemical metabolism and seafood qulity of the clam were affected. However, KZ with moderate density in the feed seemed to be beneficial in aquaculture for increasing the content of carnosine, a high-valued substance with multiple bioactivities.

EGFR-Targeted Liposomes Combined with Ginsenoside Rh2 Inhibit Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Growth and Metastasis.

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) remains the most challenging breast cancer subtype due to its lack of targeted therapies and poor prognosis. In order to treat patients with these tumors, efforts have been made to explore feasible targets. Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-targeted therapy is currently in clinical trials and regarded to be a promising treatment strategy. In this study, an EGFR-targeting nanoliposome (LTL@Rh2@Lipo-GE11) using ginsenoside Rh2 as a wall material was developed, in which GE11 was used as the EGFR-binding peptide to deliver more ginsenoside Rh2 and luteolin into TNBC. In comparison to non-targeted liposomes (Rh2@Lipo and LTL@Rh2@Lipo), the nanoliposomes LTL@Rh2@Lipo-GE11 demonstrated a high specificity to MDA-MB-231 cells that expressed a high level of EGFR both in vitro and in vivo, contributing to the strong inhibitory effects on the growth and migration of TNBC. These results suggest that LTL@Rh2@Lipo-GE11 is a prospective candidate for targeted therapy of TNBC, with a remarkable capability to inhibit tumor development and metastasis.

Engineering Single-Atom Nanozymes for Catalytic Biomedical Applications.

Nanomaterials with enzyme-mimicking properties, coined as nanozymes, are a promising alternative to natural enzymes owing to their remarkable advantages, such as high stability, easy preparation, and favorable catalytic performance. Recently, with the rapid development of nanotechnology and characterization techniques, single atom nanozymes (SAzymes) with atomically dispersed active sites, well-defined electronic and geometric structures, tunable coordination environment, and maximum metal atom utilization are developed and exploited. With superior catalytic performance and selectivity, SAzymes have made impressive progress in biomedical applications and are expected to bridge the gap between artificial nanozymes and natural enzymes. Herein, the recent advances in SAzyme preparation methods, catalytic mechanisms, and biomedical applications are systematically summarized. Their biomedical applications in cancer therapy, oxidative stress cytoprotection, antibacterial therapy, and biosensing are discussed in depth. Furthermore, to appreciate these advances, the main challenges, and prospects for the future development of SAzymes are also outlined and highlighted in this review.

Enhancing Catalytic Activity of a Nickel Single Atom Enzyme by Polynary Heteroatom Doping for Ferroptosis-Based Tumor Therapy.

As a rising generation of nanozymes, single atom enzymes show significant promise for cancer therapy, due to their maximum atom utilization efficiency and well-defined electronic structures. However, it remains a tremendous challenge to precisely produce a heteroatom-doped single atom enzyme with an expected coordination environment. Herein, we develop an anion exchange strategy for precisely controlled production of an edge-rich sulfur (S)- and nitrogen (N)-decorated nickel single atom enzyme (S-N/Ni PSAE). In particular, sulfurized S-N/Ni PSAE exhibits stronger peroxidase-like and glutathione oxidase-like activities than the nitrogen-monodoped nickel single atom enzyme, which is attributed to the vacancies and defective sites of sulfurized nitrogen atoms. Moreover, both in vitro and in vivo results demonstrate that, compared with nitrogen-monodoped N/Ni PSAE, sulfurized S-N/Ni PSAE more effectively triggers ferroptosis of tumor cells via inactivating glutathione peroxidase 4 and inducing lipid peroxidation. This study highlights the enhanced catalytic efficacy of a polynary heteroatom-doped single atom enzyme for ferroptosis-based cancer therapy.

Comparative metabarcoding analysis of phytoplankton community composition and diversity in aquaculture water and the stomach contents of Tegillarca granosa during months of growth.

Filter-feeder bivalves and phytoplankton are interdependent. Their interaction plays important role in estuarine and coastal ecosystem. The correlation between bivalve feeding and phytoplankton is highly species specificity and environment dependent. In the background of miniature and nondiatom trend of phytoplankton in coastal seawaters, how bivalve respond and how the response play roles in the phytoplankton community are poorly known. In the present study, by applying DNA metabarcoding approach based on plastid 23S rDNA, this question was addressed by comparing the phytoplankton composition in the seston and the stomach content of blood clam Tegillarca granosa sampled during the growth period from March to November 2020 in an experimental farm on tidal flat in Xiangshan Bay, East China Sea. The result showed that, a total of seven phyla, 55 genera and 73 species of phytoplankton were identified for all samples. Chlorophyta, Bacillariophyta, and Cyanobacteria were found to be three dominant phyla both in the stomach contents and seston. High diversity of pico-sized phytoplankton, which was easy overlooked by microscopy, was revealed both in seston and stomach contents. This result indicated that the clam was able to feed on the pico-sized algae. At the genus level, the most abundant genera were the pico-sized green alga Ostreococcus (6.12 %-67.88 %) in seston and Picochlorum (4.07 %-35.33 %) in the stomach contents. In addition, microalgae of high nutritional value showed trend of higher proportion in stomach contents than that in seston, especially in July and September when significant growth of T. granosa was observed during this period (the body size increased 155 %). Biodiversity of phytoplankton in the seston was totally higher than that in stomach content, however, the changes among the months showed respective trend. Especially in July when the biodiversity was the lowest in seston, that in the stomach content showed the highest. The results indicated that blood clam farming might influence the phytoplankton composition, including those of pico-sized level, although the particular species in seston were mainly correlating with the dominant environmental factors such as temperature, salinity, pH respectively. These results extend the understanding of roles that bivalve aquaculture may play in the changing of coastal phytoplankton community.

Photothermal Enhanced and Tumor Microenvironment Responsive Nanozyme for Amplified Cascade Enzyme Catalytic Therapy.

Nanocatalysts, a class of nanomaterials with intrinsic enzyme-like activities, have been widely investigated for cancer catalytic therapy in recent years. However, precise construction of nanocatalysts with excellent enzyme catalytic activity and biosafety for tumor therapy still remains challenging. Here, a biodegradable nanocatalyst, PEGylated Cux Mny Sz (PCMS), is reported that can promote cascade catalytic reactions in tumor microenvironment (TME) while confining off-target side effects on normal tissues. PCMS not only catalyzes the cascade conversion of endogenous hydrogen peroxide (H2 O2 ) to oxygen (O2 ) via catalase-like activity and then to superoxide radical (·O2 - ) via oxidase-like activity in the TME, but also effectively depletes intracellular glutathione via glutathione oxidase-like activity. The cascade catalytic reactions, by taking advantage of high H2 O2 level in tumor cells, result in an enhanced enzyme catalytic effect in generation of ·O2 - . More importantly, PCMS exhibits prominent photothermal effect under NIR-II 1064 nm laser irradiation that can further enhance chemodynamic therapy (CDT) efficacy in tumors. In addition, the biodegradation in TME and excellent photothermal effect of PCMS are beneficial to magnetic resonance imaging, photoacoustic imaging and infrared thermal imaging, resulting in tracing the fate of PCMS in vivo. This study provides a new tool for rational design of TME-responsive nanocatalysts with high biocompatibility for tumor catalytic therapy.

Melatonin as an Antioxidant Agent in Stroke: An Updated Review.

Stroke is a devastating disease associated with high mortality and disability worldwide, and is generally classified as ischemic or hemorrhagic, which share certain similar pathophysiological processes. Oxidative stress is a critical factor involved in stroke-induced injury, which not only directly damages brain tissue, but also enhances a series of pathological signaling cascades, contributing to inflammation, brain edema, and neuronal death. To alleviate these serious secondary brain injuries, neuroprotective agents targeting oxidative stress inhibition may serve as a promising treatment strategy. Melatonin is a hormone secreted by the pineal gland, and has various properties, such as antioxidation, anti-inflammation, circadian rhythm modulation, and promotion of tissue regeneration. Numerous animal experiments studying stroke have confirmed that melatonin exerts considerable neuroprotective effects, partially via anti-oxidative stress. In this review, we introduce the possible role of melatonin as an antioxidant in the treatment of stroke based on the latest published studies of animal experiments and clinical research.

Development of nanotechnology-mediated precision radiotherapy for anti-metastasis and radioprotection.

Radiotherapy (RT), including external beam RT and internal radiation therapy, uses high-energy ionizing radiation to kill tumor cells. However, ionizing radiation inevitably damages the surrounding normal tissues. Therefore, it is imperative to develop precision RT for improving the treatment outcome and reducing the adverse effects. Recent breakthroughs in nanotechnology have provided a variety of strategies by which RT can precisely and efficiently eradicate local tumors. In this review, we would like to summarize a series of nanotechnology-mediated strategies to achieve precision RT, including tumor-targeted delivery, image-guided precision radiotherapy, and exo/endogenous stimuli-responsive nanomedicines for enhanced tumor accumulation/penetration. In addition, this review will also discuss two representative featured applications of precision RT: RT-induced immunotherapy against cancer metastasis and radioprotection of the surrounding healthy tissues. Since RT is usually thought to be only effective for treating local tumors, this review will interpret the unusual mechanisms of RT-mediated systemic antitumor immunity for eliminating distant cancer metastasis as well as the abscopal effects of RT in combination with other treatments (e.g., photodynamic therapy (PDT), chemodynamic therapy (CDT), etc.). Furthermore, this review will discuss nanotechnology-mediated radioprotection strategies for shielding healthy tissues from radiation damage. Finally, the current challenges and future prospects of precision RT are also elucidated with the intention to accelerate its clinical translation.

Biomimetic Yolk-Shell Nanocatalysts for Activatable Dual-Modal-Image-Guided Triple-Augmented Chemodynamic Therapy of Cancer.

Fenton reaction-based chemodynamic therapy (CDT), which applies metal ions to convert less active hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) into more harmful hydroxyl peroxide (·OH) for tumor treatment, has attracted increasing interest recently. However, the CDT is substantially hindered by glutathione (GSH) scavenging effect on ·OH, low intracellular H2O2 level, and low reaction rate, resulting in unsatisfactory efficacy. Here, a cancer cell membrane (CM)-camouflaged Au nanorod core/mesoporous MnO2 shell yolk-shell nanocatalyst embedded with glucose oxidase (GOD) and Dox (denoted as AMGDC) is constructed for synergistic triple-augmented CDT and chemotherapy of tumor under MRI/PAI guidance. Benefiting from the homologous adhesion and immune escaping property of the cancer CM, the nanocatalysts can target tumor and gradually accumulate in tumor site. For triple-augmented CDT, first, the MnO2 shell reacts with intratumoral GSH to generate Mn2+ and glutathione disulfide, which achieves Fenton-like ion delivery and weakening of GSH-mediated scavenging effect, leading to GSH depletion-enhanced CDT. Second, the intratumoral glucose can be oxidized to H2O2 and gluconic acid by GOD, achieving supplementary H2O2-enhanced CDT. Next, the AuNRs absorbing in NIR-II elevate the local tumor temperature upon NIR-II laser irradiation, achieving photothermal-enhanced CDT. Dox is rapidly released for adjuvant chemotherapy due to responsive degradation of MnO2 shell. Moreover, GSH-activated PAI/MRI can be used to monitor CDT process. This study provides a great paradigm for enhancing CDT-mediated antitumor efficacy.

Endo/exo-genous dual-stimuli responsive gold nanotetrapod-based nanoprobe for magnetic resonance imaging and enhanced multimodal therapeutics by amplifying·OH generation.

Tumor microenvironment (TME) responsive chemodynamic therapy (CDT) can produce high-toxic hydroxyl radicals (·OH) to kill cancer cells, but the limited concentration of endogenous hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) seriously restricted its application. Herein, using endo/exo-genous dual-stimuli, a novel nanoprobe with enhanced ·OH generation was developed for magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and multimodal therapeutics, in which gold nanotetrapod (AuNTP) with photothermal therapy (PTT) performance was coated with mesoporous silica (mSiO2) and loaded with cisplatin (CDDP), then a thin layer of manganese dioxide (MnO2) was deposited to construct AuNTP@mSiO2@CDDP@MnO2 nanoprobes. In TME, endogenous H2O2, CDDP-triggered self-supplying H2O2 produced via cascade reaction and the exogenous photothermal effect of AuNTPs together enhanced the ·OH generation of Mn2+ induced by glutathione (GSH) responsive degradation of MnO2. The prepared AuNTP@mSiO2@CDDP@MnO2 nanoprobes possessed perfect core@shell structure, good biocompatibility and GSH-dependent MR performance, in which the relaxation rates increased from 0.717 mM-1·s-1 to 8.12 mM-1·s-1. Under the multimodal therapeutics of CDT/PTT/chemotherapy, the developed AuNTP@mSiO2@CDDP@MnO2 nanoprobes demonstrated good antitumor efficacy. Our work provided a promising strategy for constructing TME-responsive nanoprobes with endo/exo-genous stimuli, achieving enhanced visualized theranostics of tumors. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Tumor microenvironment (TME) responsive chemodynamic therapy (CDT) can produce high-toxic hydroxyl radicals (·OH) to kill cancer cells, but the limited concentration of endogenous hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) seriously restricted its application. Using endo/exo-genous dual-stimuli, AuNTP@mSiO2@CDDP@MnO2 (AMCM) nanoprobe was constructed, in which endogenous H2O2, CDDP-triggered self-supplying H2O2 and the exogenous photothermal effect of AuNTPs together enhanced the ·OH generation. Under the multimodal therapeutics of CDT/PTT/chemotherapy, the developed AuNTP@mSiO2@CDDP@MnO2 nanoprobe demonstrated good antitumor efficacy, and provided a promising strategy for constructing TME-responsive nanoprobes with endo/exo-genous stimuli, achieving enhanced CDT of tumors.

Construction of a lncRNA-associated competing endogenous RNA regulatory network after traumatic brain injury in mouse.

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a major public health problem worldwide which causes high mortality and disability. Functioning as microRNA (miRNA) sponges, long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) regulates the expression of protein-coding genes in a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network. However, the lncRNA-associated ceRNA in TBI remains unclear. In this study, we processed the raw SRR files of mice cortex samples of sham injury (n = 3) and TBI groups (n = 3) to count files. Then, the expression profiles of lncRNAs and mRNAs were identified, and 86 differentially expressed (DE) lncRNAs and 1201 DEmRNAs between sham and TBI groups were identified. The DEmRNAs were used to perform enrichment analyses. Next, a lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA regulatory ceRNA network was constructed. The network consisted of 23 mRNAs, 5 miRNAs and 2 lncRNAs. The expression alternations of the 5 miRNAs were validated via qRT-PCR. The subnetwork of hub lncRNA Neat1 was extracted. We identified a potential inflammatory associated regulatory axis: Neat1/miR-31-5p/Myd88 axis. The PPI network based on DEmRNA involved in ceRNA network was constructed PPI networks to identify the hub genes. Finally, DElncRNAs and DEmRNAs were selected randomly and validated by qRT-PCR. In conclusion, with the lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA ceRNA network provided above, we can improve our understanding of the regulatory mechanisms and interaction among lncRNAs, miRNAs and mRNAs in TBI process.
