Article Title: Aspirin hastens resolution of skeletal muscle inflammation and promotes recovery of muscle strength following acute injury

doi: 10.64898/2026.04.21.719989

Figure Lengend Snippet: A: Representative histological (H & E) and immunofluorescence images of TA muscle cross-sections at day 1 post-injury following treatment with vehicle (VEH), indomethacin (INDO), aspirin (ASA), or a combination of INDO + ASA. Sections are stained for Ly6G (neutrophils, red), CD68 (total macrophages, green), CD206 (M2-like macrophages, red), with DAPI (nuclei, blue) and Laminin (LAM, white) to visualize fiber boundaries. B-E : Quantification of day 1 post-injury inflammatory markers including Ly6G + cell density ( B ), CD68 + cell density ( C ), the ratio of Ly6G + to total CD68 + cells ( D ), and the M1/M2 macrophage ratio ( E ). F: Representative H & E and immunofluorescence images at day 3 post-injury for the same treatment groups and markers. G-J: Quantitative analysis of inflammatory cell dynamics at day 3 post-injury, including Ly6G + cell density ( G ), CD68 + cell area as a percentage of total tissue ( H ), CD206 + cell densities ( I ), and the M1/M2 ratio ( J ). All data are presented as mean ± SEM. Statistical significance was determined by one-way ANOVA followed by Holm-Šídák post hoc tests. Groups labeled with different letters are significantly different from one another, while groups sharing a common letter are not significantly different.

Article Title: Aurkb deficiency disrupts microglial development, homeostasis and hinders remyelination following cuprizone-induced demyelination

doi: 10.1016/j.isci.2026.114718

Figure Lengend Snippet: Aurkb loss transiently elevates CD68 in homeostatic microglia but compromises its upregulation in an LPS-induced inflammation model (A–D) Adult Aurkb fl/fl and Cx3cr1 CreERT2/+ Aurkb fl/fl littermates (8-week-old) were i.p. injected with TAM for 5 consecutive days, followed by tissue collection at 1-month and 3-month post TAM induction. Representative immunofluorescence and quantification of CD68 in microglia at (A and B) 1-month and (C and D) 3-month post-TAM induction ( n = 5 mice per genotype per time point, Scale bars: 50 μm). (E–H) Neonatal Aurkb fl/fl and Cx3cr1 CreERT2/+ Aurkb fl/fl littermates were i.p. injected with TAM for 3 consecutive days at P1-P3, followed by tissue collection at P13. Representative immunofluorescence and quantification of (E and F) CD68 and (G and H) CD206 in microglia at P13 ( n = 6 mice per genotype, Scale bars: 50 μm). (I and J) Representative immunofluorescence and quantification of CD68 in microglia from adult Aurkb fl/fl and Cx3cr1 Cre/+ Aurkb fl/fl littermates ( n = 5 mice per genotype, Scale bars: 50 μm). The representative immunofluorescence image of the Cx3cr1 Cre/+ Aurkb fl/fl group is shared in C. (K and L) Adult Aurkb fl/fl and Cx3cr1 Cre/+ Aurkb fl/fl littermates were i.p. injected with LPS (1 mg/kg) and sacrificed at 48 h post LPS administration ( n = 5 mice per genotype, Scale bars: 50 μm). Data are presented as the mean ± SD.
