Abstract
Studies have shown that phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome ten (PTEN) participates in the regulation of cochlear hair cell survival. Bisperoxovanadium protects against neurodegeneration by inhibiting PTEN expression. However, whether bisperoxovanadium can protect against noise-induced hearing loss and the underlying mechanism remains unclear. In this study, we established a mouse model of noise-induced hearing loss by exposure to 105 dB sound for 2 hours. We found that PTEN expression was increased in the organ of Corti, including outer hair cells, inner hair cells, and lateral wall tissues. Intraperitoneal administration of bisperoxovanadium decreased the auditory threshold and the loss of cochlear hair cells and inner hair cell ribbons. In addition, noise exposure decreased p-PI3K and p-Akt levels. Bisperoxovanadium preconditioning or PTEN knockdown upregulated the activity of PI3K-Akt. Bisperoxovanadium also prevented H2O2-induced hair cell death by reducing mitochondrial reactive oxygen species generation in cochlear explants. These findings suggest that bisperoxovanadium reduces noise-induced hearing injury and reduces cochlear hair cell loss.

Abstract
The fibroblast growth factor (FGF) family is composed of 18 secreted signaling proteins consisting of canonical FGFs and endocrine FGFs that activate four receptor tyrosine kinases (FGFRs 1-4) and four intracellular proteins (intracellular FGFs or iFGFs) that primarily function to regulate the activity of voltage-gated sodium channels and other molecules. The canonical FGFs, endocrine FGFs, and iFGFs have been reviewed extensively by us and others. In this review, we briefly summarize past reviews and then focus on new developments in the FGF field since our last review in 2015. Some of the highlights in the past 6 years include the use of optogenetic tools, viral vectors, and inducible transgenes to experimentally modulate FGF signaling, the clinical use of small molecule FGFR inhibitors, an expanded understanding of endocrine FGF signaling, functions for FGF signaling in stem cell pluripotency and differentiation, roles for FGF signaling in tissue homeostasis and regeneration, a continuing elaboration of mechanisms of FGF signaling in development, and an expanding appreciation of roles for FGF signaling in neuropsychiatric diseases.

Abstract
Intracellular signal transduction in response to growth factor receptor activation is a fundamental process during the regeneration of the nervous system. In this context, intracellular inhibitors of neuronal growth factor signaling have become of great interest in the recent years. Among them are the prominent signal transduction regulators Sprouty (SPRY) and phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN), which interfere with major signaling pathways such as extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) or phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt in neurons and glial cells. Furthermore, SPRY and PTEN are themselves tightly regulated by ubiquitin ligases such as c-casitas b-lineage lymphoma (c-CBL) or neural precursor cell expressed developmentally down-regulated protein 4 (NEDD4) and by different microRNAs (miRs) including miR-21 and miR-222. SPRY, PTEN and their intracellular regulators play an important role in the developing and the lesioned adult central and peripheral nervous system. This review will focus on the effects of SPRY and PTEN as well as their regulators in various experimental models of axonal regeneration in vitro and in vivo. Targeting these signal transduction regulators in the nervous system holds great promise for the treatment of neurological injuries in the future.

Abstract
Macrophages, which are the main regulators of the tumor-associated microenvironment, play a crucial role in the progression of various tumors. The anti-inflammatory role of β-catenin in macrophages has been extensively studied in recent years. However, the association between macrophages and β-catenin with regards to the development of glioma has not yet been investigated, at least to the best of our knowledge. The present study found that fibroblast growth factor 20 (FGF20), as a paracrine cytokine, was secreted by glioma cells and acted on macrophages. FGF20 treated macrophages exhibited a decreased pro-inflammatory phenotype upon LPS and IFN-γ stimulation, characterized by the decreased the level of M1 macrophage markers and the reduced production of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Mechanistic analysis revealed that FGF20 interacted with FGF receptor 1 isoform of macrophages, and subsequently increased the stability of β-catenin via phosphorylating GSK3β, which suppressed macrophage polarization to the M1-phenotype. Finally, it was found that FGF20 of glioma cells expression was upregulated by the glucocorticoids (GCs) treatment, and decreased FGF20 expression of glioma cells markedly blocked the effects of GCs on the polarization of macrophages. On the whole, the present study demonstrates that FGF20, secreted from glioma cells, participates the GCs regulated macrophage function and exerts anti-inflammatory effects during the treatment of glioma by GCs. Moreover, a molecular link was identified between glioma cells and macrophages, demonstrating that FGF20 modulates the GCs-induced dysfunction of macrophages during glioma development.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tooth regeneration depends on the longevity of the dental epithelial lamina. However, the exact mechanism of dental lamina regression has not yet been clarified. To explore the role of the Sonic hedgehog (Shh) signaling pathway in regression process of the rudimentary successional dental lamina (RSDL) in mice, we orally administered a single dose of a Shh signaling pathway inhibitor to pregnant mice between embryonic day 13.0 (E13.0) and E17.0. RESULTS We observed that the Shh signaling pathway inhibitor effectively inhibited the expression of Shh signaling pathway components and revitalized RSDL during E15.0-E17.0 by promoting cell proliferation. In addition, mRNA-seq, reverse transcription plus polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR), and immunohistochemical analyses indicated that diphyodontic dentition formation might be related to FGF signal up-regulation and the Sostdc1-Wnt negative feedback loop. CONCLUSIONS Overall, our results indicated that the Shh signaling pathway may play an initial role in preventing further development of mouse RSDL in a time-dependent manner.
