Mfn2 downregulation in excitotoxicity causes mitochondrial dysfunction and delayed neuronal death. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Mitochondrial fusion and fission is a dynamic process critical for the maintenance of mitochondrial function and cell viability. During excitotoxicity neuronal mitochondria are fragmented, but the mechanism underlying this process is poorly understood ...

Mechanisms of Neuronal Protection against Excitotoxicity, Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress, and Mitochondrial Dysfunction in Stroke and Neurodegenerative Diseases

open access: yesOxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity, 2015
In stroke and neurodegenerative disease, neuronal excitotoxicity, caused by increased extracellular glutamate levels, is known to result in calcium overload and mitochondrial dysfunction.

Neuroprotection by MKK7 inhibition in excitotoxicity [PDF]

open access: yesSpringerPlus, 2015
Excitotoxicity following cerebral ischemia elicits a molecular cascade, which leads neurons to death. One key molecule of this pathway is c-Jun-N-terminal kinase (JNK), a MAP kinase, which plays both physiological and pathological roles in neurons. We have previously shown that JNK blockade by specific cell permeable peptide inhibitors significantly ...

Bioequivalence of a Donepezil/Memantine 10/20 mg Fixed‐Dose Combination Versus Single‐Component Tablets in Healthy Korean Males

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology in Drug Development, EarlyView.
Abstract A fixed‐dose combination (FDC) tablet formulation of donepezil/memantine (10/20 mg) was developed to improve medication compliance in patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD). This study compared the pharmacokinetic (PK) characteristics and safety profiles of an FDC formulation (donepezil/memantine [10/20 mg]) and single components (SCs) of ...

Vesicular glutamatergic transmission in noise-induced loss and repair of cochlear ribbon synapses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Noise-induced excitotoxicity is thought to depend on glutamate. However, the excitotoxic mechanisms are unknown, and the necessity of glutamate for synapse loss or regeneration is unclear. Despite absence of glutamatergic transmission from cochlear inner

Permissive role for mGlu1 metabotropic glutamate receptors in excitotoxic retinal degeneration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Neuroprotection is an unmet need in eye disorders characterized by retinal ganglion cell (RGC) death, such as prematurity-induced retinal degeneration, glaucoma, and age-related macular degeneration.

The endocannabinoid system regulates both ependymoglial and neuronal cell responses to a tail amputation in the axolotl

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The endocannabinoid system is a neuromodulatory system implicated in cellular processes during both development and regeneration. The Mexican axolotl, one of only a few vertebrates capable of central nervous system regeneration, was used to examine the role of the endocannabinoid system in the regeneration of the tail and spinal ...

Glutamate/NMDA excitotoxicity and HMGB1/TLR4 neuroimmune toxicity converge as components of neurodegeneration

open access: yesAIMS Molecular Science, 2015
Neurodegeneration in brain is linked to both excitotoxicity and neuroimmune gene induction, although the mechanisms are poorly understood. High-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) is a cytokine like molecule released in brain by glutamate that has been found to

Pathologically Activated Neuroprotection via Uncompetitive Blockade of \u3cem\u3eN\u3c/em\u3e-Methyl-d-aspartate Receptors with Fast Off-rate by Novel Multifunctional Dimer Bis(propyl)-cognitin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Uncompetitive N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonists with fast off-rate (UFO) may represent promising drug candidates for various neurodegenerative disorders.

Wide therapeutic time window for nimesulide neuroprotection in a model of transient focal cerebral ischemia in the rat [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Results from several studies indicate that cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) is involved ischemic brain injury. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the neuroprotective effects of the selective COX-2 inhibitor nimesulide on cerebral infarction and ...
