Summary of findings reporting HMGB1 in neuroinflammation mediated conditions.

S.N. Intervention Model Mechanism Observation Reference
1. HMGB1 Rat • Delayed inflammatory processes by extracellular HMGB1 • HMGB1 was released during the excitotoxicity-induced acute damaging process Kim et al., 2006
• Extracellular HMGB1 provokes inflammatory processes and acts like a novel pro-inflammatory cytokine-like factor
2 HMGB1 Mice • Activation of NF-κB and NADPH oxidase by HMGB1 via binding with Mac1 • HMGB1-Mac1-NADPH oxidase signaling cascades connects chronic neuroinflammation and dopaminergic neurodegeneration Gao et al., 2011
3 HMGB1 Rat • HMGB1 acted as an early pro-inflammatory cytokine • HMGB1 released into the cytoplasm soon after ICH Lei et al., 2013
• Mediate inflammation during the acute phase of ICH
4 HMGB1 Rat • Inflammatory responses produced via HMGB1/TLR4/NF-κB signaling • HMGB1 ↓ the release of IL-6 and TNF-α Tian et al., 2015
• HMGB1 inhibited activation of NF-κB in the developing brain
5 HMGB1 Rat • Regulation of age-related priming of the neuroinflammatory responses by HMGB1 • HMGB1was ↑ in aged rodent brains and CSF Fonken et al., 2016
• Blocking HMGB1 “desensitized” microglia in the aged brain and prevent pathological infection-elicited neuroinflammatory responses
