    Abstract Mortalin is a chaperone protein that regulates physiological functions of cells. Its multifactorial role allows cells to survive pathological conditions. Pharmacological, chemical, and siRNA-mediated downregulation of mortalin increases oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction leading to unregulated inflammation. In addition to its well-characterized function in controlling oxidative stress, mitochondrial health, and maintaining physiological balance, recent evidence from human brain autopsies and cell culture-based studies suggests a critical role of mortalin in attenuating the damage seen in several neurodegenerative diseases. Overexpression of mortalin provides an important line of defense against accumulated proteins, inflammation, and neuronal loss, a key characteristic feature observed in neurodegeneration. Neurodegenerative diseases are a group of progressive disorders, sharing pathological features in Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, and HIV-associated neurocognitive disorder. Aggregation of insoluble amyloid beta-proteins and neurofibrillary tangles in Alzheimer's disease are among the leading cause of neuropathology in the brain. Parkinson's disease is characterized by the degeneration of dopamine neurons in substantia nigra pars compacta. A substantial synaptic loss leading to cognitive decline is the hallmark of HIV-associated neurocognitive disorder (HAND). Brain autopsies and cell culture studies showed reduced expression of mortalin in Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and HAND cases and deciphered the important role of mortalin in brain cells. Here, we discuss mortalin and its regulation and describe how neurotoxic conditions alter the expression of mortalin and modulate its functions. In addition, we also review the neuroprotective role of mortalin under neuropathological conditions. This knowledge showcases the importance of mortalin in diverse brain functions and offers new opportunities for the development of therapeutic targets that can modulate the expression of mortalin using chemical compounds.

    Abstract The Zika virus (ZIKV) outbreaks and its co-relation with microcephaly have become a global health concern. It is primarily transmitted by a mosquito, but can also be transmitted from an infected mother to her fetus causing impairment in brain development, leading to microcephaly. However, the underlying molecular mechanism of ZIKV-induced microcephaly is poorly understood. In this study, we explored the role of ZIKV non-structural protein NS4A and NS4B in ZIKV pathogenesis in a well-characterized primary culture of human fetal neural stem cells (fNSCs). We observed that the co-transfection of NS4A and NS4B altered the neural stem cell fate by arresting proliferation and inducing premature neurogenesis. NS4A + NS4B transfection in fNSCs increased autophagy and dysregulated notch signaling. Further, it also altered the regulation of downstream genes controlling cell proliferation. Additionally, we reported that 3 methyl-adenine (3-MA), a potent autophagy inhibitor, attenuated the deleterious effects of NS4A and NS4B as evidenced by the rescue in Notch1 expression, enhanced proliferation, and reduced premature neurogenesis. Our attempts to understand the mechanism of autophagy induction indicate the involvement of mitochondrial fission and ROS. Collectively, our findings highlight the novel role of NS4A and NS4B in mediating NSC fate alteration through autophagy-mediated notch degradation. The study also helps to advance our understanding of ZIKV-induced neuropathogenesis and suggests autophagy as a potential target for anti-ZIKV therapeutic intervention.

    Abstract Zika virus (ZIKV) infection during the first trimester of the pregnancy may lead to Congenital zika syndrome in the neonates. The viral infection hampers foetal brain development and causes microcephaly. Human neural progenitor cells (hNPCs) play an important role in brain development, however they are highly susceptible to ZIKV infection. In this study, we elucidated the molecular mechanisms that lead to cellular alterations in hNPCs due to ZIKV E-protein. We investigated proliferation, differentiation, migration and inflammation in hNPCs, which may lead to microcephaly. In our study, we found that ZIKV E-protein causes cell cycle arrest, decrease in proliferation and increase in mitotic length of the dividing hNPCs. We observed CyclinD1 and upstream molecules (p21 and p53) of the pathway are dysregulated, and intracellular calcium at basal level as well as upon ATP stimulation were reduced following over expression of ZIKV E-protein. ZIKV E-protein transfected hNPCs exhibited pre-mature differentiation with pro-neural genes upregulated. Furthermore, ZIKV E-protein disrupted migrational properties of hNPCs and caused elevated levels of inflammatory chemokines and cytokines. To gain insights into molecular mechanisms of these effects on hNPCs, we explored the possible involvement of long non coding RNAs in ZIKV neuropathogenesis. We have shortlisted lncRNAs associated with differentially expressed genes from publicly available transcriptomic data and found some of those lncRNAs are differentially expressed upon E-protein transfection of hNPCs. Gene ontology analysis suggest these lncRNAs play an important role in regulation of viral life cycle, host's defence response and cell proliferation.

    Abstract Stroke is a life-threatening medical condition across the world that adversely affects the integrity of the blood-brain barrier (BBB). The brain microvascular endothelial cells are the important constituent of the BBB. These cells line the blood vessels and form a semipermeable barrier. Disruptions in adherens junction and tight junction proteins of brain microvascular endothelial cells compromise the integrity of BBB. The Vascular Endothelial (VE)-cadherin is an integral adherens junction protein required for the establishment and maintenance of the endothelial barrier integrity. This study aims to investigate the role of miRNA in hypoxia-induced endothelial barrier disruption. In this study, brain endothelial cells were exposed to hypoxic conditions for different time points. Western blotting, overexpression and knockdown of miRNA, real-time PCR, TEER, and sodium fluorescein assay were used to examine the effect of hypoxic conditions on brain endothelial cells. Hypoxic exposure was validated using HIF-1α protein. Exposure to hypoxic conditions resulted to a significant decrease in endothelial barrier resistance and an increase in sodium fluorescein migration across the endothelial barrier. Reduction in endothelial barrier resistance demonstrated compromised barrier integrity, whereas the increase in migration of sodium fluorescein across the barrier indicated the increase in barrier permeability. The present study revealed microRNA-101 decreases the expression of VE-cadherin and claudin-5 in brain endothelial cells exposed to the hypoxic conditions.
