| 17:00 | 脑缺血/神经保护 | cerebral ischemia, stroke, neuroprotection, MCAO |
| 19:00 | 生信/前沿技术 | single-cell, multi-omics, bioinformatics, spatial transcriptomics |
## 论文筛选标准
### 硬性门槛(必须同时满足)
1. **期刊要求**:Cell/Nature/Science 主刊或大子刊(影响因子 > 10),或领域顶刊(J Neurosci, Brain, Stroke 等专业顶刊)
2. **时间要求**:发表时间在最近3个月内
3. **相关要求**:与用户任一研究方向直接相关
### 质量评估(由Claude Code执行)
Claude 会从以下维度打分(满分10分,低于6分不推荐):
- **逻辑完整性**:是否有完整的正反验证(gain + loss of function)
- **方法学水平**:技术是否前沿(单细胞、空间转录组、活细胞成像等)
- **创新性**:是否提出了新概念/新机制/新方法
- **可借鉴性**:实验设计是否值得用户在自己的项目中参考
- **临床转化潜力**:是否有体内验证或治疗意义
### 额外加分项
- 实验设计有巧思(如分子开关、双突变体等)
- 方法学值得借鉴(如TurboID、BiFC、邻近标记等)
- 生信分析新颖(如CellChat、多组学整合等)
## 执行流程
### Step 1: PubMed检索 — 两阶段策略
使用 PubMed E-utilities API。推荐**两阶段搜索**而非单次搜索:
**阶段A — 主题搜索**:先用具体关键词搜出近期论文列表
**阶段B — 高影响力期刊筛选**:再用期刊标签搜同一主题在高IF期刊上的论文
#### 检索方式选择
**方式1 — Python urllib(推荐)**:能正确处理URL编码,避免journal名称被翻译为MeSH词条
```python
import urllib.request, urllib.parse, json
query = 'Parkinson AND ("Nat Neurosci"[Journal] OR "Neuron"[Journal] OR ...)'
params = {
'db': 'pubmed',
'term': query,
'mindate': '<当前日期-3月>',
'maxdate': '<当前日期>',
'datetype': 'pdat',
'retmax': '15',
'retmode': 'json'
}
url = 'https://eutils.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/esearch.fcgi?' + urllib.parse.urlencode(params)
```
**方式2 — curl**(某些环境需要 `-k` 标志处理SSL问题):
```bash
curl -s --connect-timeout 10 --max-time 30 -k \
'https://eutils.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/esearch.fcgi?db=pubmed&term=<关键词>&mindate=<日期>&maxdate=<日期>&datetype=pdat&retmax=10&retmode=json'
```
⚠️ 注意:
- `sort=date` 参数在PubMed API中**被忽略**(返回 warning),不要使用
- 某些环境SSL握手失败(exit code 35),需要 `-k` 标志或改用Python
- 复杂查询(含 `[Journal]` 标签、引号等)在curl命令行中容易URL编码失败,优先用Python
#### 期刊搜索要点
- 必须用 `"全称"[Journal]` 格式,裸词如 `Neuron` 或 `Brain` 会被PubMed翻译为MeSH解剖学术语(神经元/大脑),而非期刊名
- 推荐覆盖的期刊:`"Nat Neurosci"[Journal]`, `"Neuron"[Journal]`, `"Nat Med"[Journal]`, `"Lancet Neurol"[Journal]`, `"Nat Commun"[Journal]`, `"Sci Adv"[Journal]`, `"Cell Rep"[Journal]`, `"Acta Neuropathol"[Journal]`, `"Brain"[Journal]`, `"Mol Neurodegener"[Journal]`, `"EBioMedicine"[Journal]`, `"Cell"[Journal]`, `"Nature"[Journal]`, `"Science"[Journal]`
### Step 2: 获取论文详情
对检索到的论文,获取标题+摘要+期刊+DOI,进行初步筛选。
```python
# 获取摘要
url = 'https://eutils.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/efetch.fcgi?db=pubmed&id=<PMID列表>&retmode=text&rettype=abstract'
# 获取元数据(期刊名、发表类型、作者等)
url = 'https://eutils.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/esummary.fcgi?db=pubmed&id=<PMID列表>&retmode=json'
```
⚠️ 初筛陷阱:
- **"No authors listed"** 的Nat Med文章通常是News & Views/编辑评论,非原创研究,跳过
- **pubtype** 检查:`Journal Article` 且不含 `Review` 为原创研究;Review标记的跳过(除非特别高质量)
- **Letter/Correspondence** 格式的篇幅短小,通常非完整研究,谨慎评估
### Step 3: 多维质量评估
对通过初筛的候选论文,从以下5个维度评分(满分10分,低于6分不推荐):
评估可由**Hermes agent自身执行**(当Claude Code CLI不可用时),按照以下标准:
- **逻辑完整性**:是否有完整的正反验证(gain + loss of function),KO/KI模型,药理抑制剂等
- **方法学水平**:技术是否前沿(单细胞测序、空间转录组、蛋白质组学、CLEM、活细胞成像等)
- **创新性**:是否提出了新概念/新机制/新方法
- **可借鉴性**:实验设计是否值得用户在自己的项目中参考
- **临床转化潜力**:是否有体内验证或治疗意义
### Step 4: 二次筛选
如果评分>=6分,且内容与用户研究方向高度相关,则推送。
### Step 5: 微信推送
格式:
```

## 注意事项
- 不要推荐综述(Review),除非是特别高质量的综述
- 不要推荐方法学文章(除非方法特别新颖值得关注)
- 严格把关质量,宁可少推也不推垃圾文章
- 推送语言用中文,但保留英文标题和期刊名

In this study, we reconstruct the developmental \r\ntrajectory of cultured cortical networks derived from SOD1G93A mouse embryos \r\nusing a multimodal approach, by combining morphometric, electrophysiological, \r\npharmacological, molecular, computational, and machine-learning techniques. We \r\nprove that ALS neurons fail to acquire mature polarization and connectivity, \r\ndisplaying a transient phase of hyperexcitability that precedes a progressive \r\ncollapse of network organization. Astrocytic dysfunction emerges early and \r\nimpairs synchronization, establishing a causal link between glial dysfunction \r\nand neuronal instability. The analysis of synaptic transmission reveals an \r\nexcitatory bias followed by maladaptive inhibitory recruitment and \r\nGABA/glutamate co-release, causing fragmented and inefficient network \r\ntopologies. Finally, in silico modelling identified deficient intrinsic \r\nadaptation as a key driver of hyperexcitability. Together, our findings position \r\nALS as a developmentally rooted disorder of cultured cortical network \r\nhomeostasis, driven by glial, synaptic, and intrinsic adaptation failures. By \r\ndemonstrating that cortical dysfunction is embedded before degeneration, this \r\nwork provides a unifying framework connecting early network instability to \r\ndisease progression and establishes electrophysiological network signatures, \r\ndetected by machine learning classifiers, as candidate biomarkers for early \r\ndiagnosis and therapeutic screening.\r\n\r\n© The Author(s) 2026.

Spared motor pathways are often reorganized for recovery; however, the \r\nconnectivity and mechanisms that drive the reorganization are largely unknown. \r\nHere, we demonstrate structural and functional connectivity reformed by \r\ncorticospinal axons after stroke in male mice and determine a secretory protein \r\nthat drives the reorganization. We first find that corticospinal axons innervate \r\nthe denervated cervical cord and reconnect to premotor V2a interneurons after \r\nstroke. Kinematic analyses and chemogenetic silencing reveal their contribution \r\nto motor recovery. Translated mRNA expression analyses identify a secretory \r\nprotein secretogranin II (Scg2), which is upregulated in astrocytes by \r\ninjury-induced ATP and in V2a neurons by rehabilitation-induced neural activity. \r\nScg2 promotes axon growth via cAMP and S6 and enhances axon rewiring, while its \r\nknockdown attenuates it. Our data reveal the neural substrate and molecular \r\nmechanism to induce reorganization and recovery, providing therapeutic targets \r\nfor central nervous system (CNS) injuries.\r\n\r\n© 2026.

However, the cellular \r\nmechanisms underlying GLP-1RA effects on neuroinflammation remain poorly \r\nunderstood. Here we show, using a mouse model of lipopolysaccharide-induced \r\nneuroinflammation, how semaglutide coordinates cellular responses to resolve \r\nneuroinflammation. We find that semaglutide in male mice prevents brain \r\ninfiltration of neutrophils, excessive cytokine release, and suppresses \r\nneuroinflammation-associated transcriptional signatures specifically in \r\nmicroglia, endothelial cells, and a subset of pericytes. Mechanistically, we \r\nidentify a subset of Glp1r-expressing neurons in the dorsal vagal complex that, \r\nupon semaglutide treatment, regulate genes involved in anti-inflammatory \r\nsignaling. Semaglutide-modulated pathways overlap with inflammatory signatures \r\nfound in human neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease, \r\nsuggesting broad relevance for conditions involving neuroinflammation. Together, \r\nthese findings reveal how GLP-1R signaling in male mice orchestrates resolution \r\nof neuroinflammation through coordinated multi-cellular programs.\r\n\r\n© 2026.

Here, we \r\nidentify the histone acetyltransferase KAT7 (HBO1) as a central epigenetic \r\nregulator that links chromatin remodeling to mitochondrial immune activation. \r\nKAT7 and its histone mark H3K14ac are elevated in microglia from 5×FAD mice and \r\nhuman AD brains. Integrative transcriptomic and epigenomic analyses reveal that \r\nKAT7 activates transcription of cytidine/uridine monophosphate kinase 2 (Cmpk2), \r\na mitochondrial kinase essential for mtDNA synthesis. Loss of KAT7 reduces Cmpk2 \r\nexpression, impairs mtDNA replication and release, and consequently suppresses \r\ncyclic guanosine monophosphate-AMP synthase (cGAS)-stimulator of interferon \r\ngenes (STING) and NLRP3 signaling. Importantly, both microglia-specific deletion \r\nand pharmacological inhibition of KAT7 mitigate cytosolic mtDNA-induced \r\nneuroinflammation, decrease β-amyloid burden, restore synaptic plasticity, and \r\nimprove cognitive function in 5×FAD mice. Together, these findings uncover an \r\nepigenetic-mitochondrial axis sustaining microglial pathogenicity and establish \r\nKAT7 as a potential therapeutic target for AD.\r\n\r\nCopyright © 2026 The Author(s).

This study aimed to elucidate the \r\nsex-specific plasma proteomic profiles of depression in patients with PD (DPD) \r\nand to investigate the role of complement-mediated synaptic pruning in its \r\npathophysiology.\r\nMETHODS: Plasma proteomic analysis was performed on data from the Parkinson's \r\nProgression Markers Initiative (PPMI) and an independent validation cohort, \r\nstratified by sex. Functional enrichment analyses identified dysregulated \r\npathways. A chronic MPTP/probenecid-induced mouse model of PD was used to \r\nvalidate findings. Behavioural tests assessed motor and depressive-like \r\nphenotypes. Proteomic, biochemical, and imaging techniques were used to evaluate \r\nprotein expression, synapse density, and microglial phagocytosis. The \r\ntherapeutic mechanism of Botulinum Neurotoxin A (BoNT/A) on DPD was investigated \r\nin wild-type, C3-/- and C3aR-/- mice and in microglial cultures.\r\nFINDINGS: Proteomic profiling revealed both conserved complement-driven immune \r\ndysfunction and profound sex-divergent molecular perturbations underlying PD and \r\nDPD. Complement and coagulation cascades were consistently upregulated in both \r\nsexes. In MPTP-treated male and female mice, hippocampal complement components \r\n(C1Q, C3, C3aR) and downstream signalling (p-STAT3, p-P65) were elevated, \r\naccompanied by microglial synapse phagocytosis and depressive-like behaviours. \r\nGenetic deletion of C3 rescued both MPTP-induced motor and depressive-like \r\nbehavioural deficits and prevented hippocampal synaptic loss associated with \r\nmicroglial synaptic engulfment. BoNT/A treatment alleviated depressive-like \r\nbehaviours and reduced microglial synaptic engulfment in an MPTP model; these \r\ntherapeutic effects were abolished in C3-/- and C3aR-/- mice. Single-cell RNA \r\nsequencing and in vitro phagocytosis assay confirmed that BoNT/A modulated \r\nphagocytosis-related microglial subclusters.\r\nINTERPRETATION: DPD exhibits distinct sex-specific immune signatures, with \r\nconvergent complement pathway activation driving microglial synaptic pruning and \r\ndepressive symptoms. The antidepressant effect of BoNT/A is mediated through \r\ninhibition of the C3-C3aR signalling axis. These findings highlight the \r\npotential for sex-stratified diagnostics and complement-targeted therapies for \r\ndepression in patients with PD. A key limitation is that our clinical analyses \r\nwere constrained by limited validation cohort sizes, and mechanistic studies \r\nwere limited to male mice, which may restrict the generalisability of our \r\nfindings to female populations.\r\nFUNDING: National Natural Science Foundation of China, Key Project of the \r\nNatural Science Foundation of Jiangsu Provincial Higher Education Institutions, \r\nProject of Biomedical Basic Research Center (BBRC) of Jiangsu, Clinical Research \r\nCenter of Neurological Disease in The Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow \r\nUniversity, Project of MOE Key Laboratory of Geriatric Diseases and Immunology, \r\nJiangsu Key Laboratory of Drug Discovery and Translational Research for Brain \r\nDiseases; The Lingang Laboratory fund; Shanghai Science and Technology \r\nInnovation Sailing Special Project, and Shanghai Municipal Science and \r\nTechnology Major Project; Zhejiang Provincial Natural Science Foundation of \r\nChina.\r\n\r\nCopyright © 2026 The Author(s).

In this study, we show that Drosophila exhibit large-scale \r\nsynapse formation and elimination as part of normal CNS circuit maturation and \r\nthat glia use conserved molecules to regulate these processes. Using a \r\nhigh-throughput ELISA-based in vivo screening assay, we identify new glial genes \r\nthat regulate synapse numbers in Drosophila in vivo, including the scavenger \r\nreceptor ortholog Croquemort (Crq). Crq acts as an essential regulator of \r\nglial-dependent synapse elimination during development, with glial Crq loss \r\nleading to excess CNS synapses and progressive seizure susceptibility in adults. \r\nLoss of Crq in glia also prevents age-related synaptic, but not neuronal, loss \r\nin the adult brain. This work provides new insights into the cellular and \r\nmolecular mechanisms that underlie synapse development and maintenance across \r\nthe lifespan and identifies glial Crq as a key regulator of these processes.\r\n\r\nCopyright © 2026 The Authors.

Here, we show that CD31, a recognized endothelial \r\nmarker, is predominantly expressed in microglia but not in neurons or \r\nastrocytes, and it is significantly elevated in the brains of AD patients and \r\nmouse models. Microglia-specific CD31 knockdown in 5xFAD mice substantially \r\nattenuated the dysregulated transcription networks, suppressed microglia \r\nhyperactivation and the disease-associated microglia (DAM), mitigated Aβ \r\ndeposition and inflammation, and eventually improved cognitive functions in \r\nmice. Mechanistically, CD31 knockdown damaged the simultaneous recruitment of \r\nSrc homology phosphatase 2 (SHP2) and STAT3, leading to a reduced \r\ndephosphorylation and enhanced activation of STAT3, a transcription factor. \r\nSTAT3 activation increased transcription of membrane metalloendopeptidase (MME) \r\nand promoted Aβ clearance. Collectively, this study identifies microglial CD31, \r\nby regulating SHP2-STAT3-MME axis, plays a role in AD pathogenesis and targeting \r\nCD31 is promising in AD drug development.\r\n\r\n© 2026.

Single-nucleus RNA \r\nsequencing was performed to resolve cell-type-specific transcriptional \r\nresponses.\r\nRESULTS: HFHS-diet induced weight gain, hyperglycemia, and glucose intolerance \r\nin WT and AD knock-in mice as compared to control diet-fed mice. However, \r\nimpaired spatial learning was observed only in AD knock-in mice on the HFHS \r\ndiet, even though there was no greater amyloid-β deposition or tau \r\nphosphorylation than in control diet AD knock-in mice. Transcriptomic profiling \r\nrevealed that HFHS-fed AD mice engaged a distinct glial program, which we termed \r\nthe metabolic impairment in neurodegeneration (MinD) state, characterized by \r\nupregulation of genes involved in synaptic targeting and trans-synaptic \r\nsignaling shared across microglia, astrocytes, and oligodendrocytes. In \r\nparallel, we identified selective induction of the transcription factor Meis2 in \r\ncortical Layer 2 inhibitory neurons, which exhibited HFHS-diet transcriptional \r\nremodeling enriched for pathways regulating vesicle release, synaptic \r\norganization, and membrane excitability. These coordinated glial and neuronal \r\ntranscriptional changes were associated with reduced inhibitory synapse density \r\nin HFHS-fed AD mice.\r\nCONCLUSION: Diet-induced insulin resistance in AD knock-in mice is associated \r\nwith coordinated glial and inhibitory neuron transcriptional remodeling and \r\ncognitive impairment, without alteration of the classical amyloid and tau \r\npathology present in the AD mice fed a lean diet. These findings define cellular \r\nprograms linking systemic insulin metabolic dysfunction to cortical circuity \r\nvulnerability in AD.\r\n\r\n© 2026.
