RESUMO

In recent years, much of the attention paid to theoretical and applied biomedicine, as well as neurobiology, has been drawn to various aspects of sexual dimorphism due to the differences that male and female brain cells demonstrate during aging: (a) a dimorphic pattern of response to therapy for neurodegenerative disorders, (b) different age of onset and different degrees of the prevalence of such disorders, and (c) differences in their symptomatic manifestations in men and women. The purpose of this review is to outline the genetic and epigenetic differences in brain cells during aging in males and females. As a result, we hereby show that the presence of brain aging patterns in males and females is due to a complex of factors associated with the effects of sex chromosomes, which subsequently entails a change in signal cascades in somatic cells.

RESUMO

Low-level laser therapy, or photobiomodulation, utilizes red or near-infrared light for the treatment of pathological conditions due to the presence of intracellular photoacceptors, such as mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase, that serve as intermediates for the therapeutic effects. We present an in-detail analysis of the effect of low-intensity LED red light irradiation on the respiratory chain of brain mitochondria. We tested whether low-level laser therapy at 650 nm could alleviate the brain mitochondrial dysfunction in the model of acute hypobaric hypoxia in mice. The irradiation of the mitochondrial fraction of the left cerebral cortex with low-intensity LED red light rescued Complex I-supported respiration during oxidative phosphorylation, normalized the initial polarization of the inner mitochondrial membrane, but has not shown any significant effect on the activity of Complex IV. In comparison, the postponed effect (in 24 h) of the similar transcranial irradiation following hypoxic exposure led to a less pronounced improvement of the mitochondrial functional state, but normalized respiration related to ATP production and membrane polarization. In contrast, the similar irradiation of the mitochondria isolated from control healthy animals exerted an inhibitory effect on CI-supported respiration. The obtained results provide significant insight that can be beneficial for the development of non-invasive phototherapy.

RESUMO

In neuroscience, much attention is paid to intercellular interactions, in particular, to synapses. However, many researchers do not pay due attention to the contribution of intracellular contacts to the work of intercellular interactions. Nevertheless, along with synapses, intracellular contacts also have complex organization and a tremendous number of regulatory elements. Mitochondria-endoplasmic reticulum contacts (MERCs) are a specific site of interaction between the two organelles; they provide a basis for a large number of cellular functions, such as calcium homeostasis, lipid metabolism, autophagy, and apoptosis. Despite the presence of these contacts in various parts of neurons and glial cells, it is yet not known whether they fulfill the same functions. There are still many unsolved questions about the work of these intracellular contacts, and one of the most important among them is if MERCs, with their broad implication into synaptic events, can be considered the assistant to neurotransmission?
