Going the Extra (Synaptic) Mile: Excitotoxicity as the Road Toward Neurodegenerative Diseases [PDF]
Excitotoxicity is a phenomenon that describes the toxic actions of excitatory neurotransmitters, primarily glutamate, where the exacerbated or prolonged activation of glutamate receptors starts a cascade of neurotoxicity that ultimately leads to the loss

Calcium Permeable-AMPA Receptors and Excitotoxicity in Neurological Disorders
Excitotoxicity is one of the primary mechanisms of cell loss in a variety of diseases of the central and peripheral nervous systems. Other than the previously established signaling pathways of excitotoxicity, which depend on the excessive release of ...

Neuroprotective Effects of Daphnetin against NMDA Receptor-Mediated Excitotoxicity
The accumulation of glutamate can excessively activate the N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptors and cause excitotoxicity. Daphnetin (Dap), a coumarin derivative, is a protein kinase inhibitor that exhibits antioxidant and neuroprotective properties ...

Does umbelliferone protect primary cortical neuron cells against glutamate excitotoxicity [PDF]
Glutamate is the major excitatory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system. Excessive glutamate is known to cause excitotoxicity. Umbelliferone is a coumarin derivative compound and has anti-oxidant, anti-infl ammatory, and neuroprotective eff ects.

Molecular mechanisms of NMDA excitotoxicity in the retina
NMDA excitotoxicity, as a part of glutamate excitotoxicity, has been proposed to contribute significantly to many retinal diseases. Therefore, understanding mechanisms of NMDA excitotoxicity will provide further insight into the mechanisms of many ...

Nicorandil mitigates glutamate excitotoxicity in primary cultured neurons
Excitotoxicity, caused by the excessive release of glutamate, leads to the activation of the apoptotic process, making it a crucial factor in age-related neurodegenerative diseases.

Possible role of excitotoxicity in the pathogenesis of glaucoma
Excitotoxicity describes the process of neuronal injury by excess stimulation of amino acid receptors. This form of insult was first described in the retina, and subsequently has been shown to be an important component of the pathogenesis of ischaemic ...

Dopamine protects neurons against glutamate-induced excitotoxicity [PDF]
Glutamate excitotoxicity is responsible for neuronal death in acute neurological disorders including stroke, trauma and neurodegenerative disease. Loss of calcium homeostasis is a key mediator of glutamate-induced cell death.

SIRT4 prevents excitotoxicity via modulating glutamate metabolism in glioma cells
Excitotoxicity is the presence of excessive glutamate, which is normally taken up by glutamate transporters on astrocytes. Glutamate transporter 1 (GLT-1) is the major transporter on glia cells clearing more than 90% of the glutamate.
