Going the Extra (Synaptic) Mile: Excitotoxicity as the Road Toward Neurodegenerative Diseases [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2020
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

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2021
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

open access: yesMolecules, 2014
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]

open access: yesKafkas Universitesi Veteriner Fakültesi Dergisi, 2021
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

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
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

open access: yesMedicine Science
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

open access: yesClinical and Experimental Ophthalmology, 2006
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 ...

TRP Channels in Excitotoxicity.

open access: yesThe Neuroscientist
Glutamate excitotoxicity is a central mechanism contributing to cellular dysfunction and death in various neurological disorders and diseases, such as stroke, traumatic brain injury, epilepsy, schizophrenia, addiction, mood disorders, Huntington\u27s ...

Dopamine protects neurons against glutamate-induced excitotoxicity [PDF]

open access: gold, 2013
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

open access: yesHuman and Experimental Toxicology, 2020
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.
