A Cytotoxic, Co-operative Interaction Between Energy Deprivation and Glutamate Release From System x\u3csub\u3ec\u3c/sub\u3e\u3csup\u3e−\u3c/sup\u3e Mediates Aglycemic Neuronal Cell Death [PDF]
The astrocyte cystine/glutamate antiporter (system xc−) contributes substantially to the excitotoxic neuronal cell death facilitated by glucose deprivation. The purpose of this study was to determine the mechanism by which this occurred.

ABSTRACT Nitrooxidative stress, driven by excess reactive nitrogen species like peroxynitrite, contributes to the pathogenesis of many chronic diseases. Among its molecular footprints, 3‐nitrotyrosine (3NT) has emerged as a biologically relevant marker of protein nitration.

A Glio-Protective Role of mir-263a by Tuning Sensitivity to Glutamate
Glutamate is a ubiquitous neurotransmitter, mediating information flow between neurons. Defects in the regulation of glutamatergic transmission can result in glutamate toxicity, which is associated with neurodegeneration.

Abstract Objective Investigate the efficacy of immediate‐release (IR) amantadine in reducing the risk of peak‐dose dyskinesia in early Parkinson's disease (PD) as add‐on to levodopa. Background While the use of amantadine to manage dyskinesia in PD is well supported by controlled clinical trials, data on its efficacy in patients without motor ...

Huntington's Disease and Striatal Signaling
Huntington’s Disease (HD) is the most frequent neurodegenerative disease caused by an expansion of polyglutamines (CAG). The main clinical manifestations of HD are chorea, cognitive impairment and psychiatric disorders.

Uncovering the Complexity of Synucleinopathies: An Ongoing Tale Between Proteins and Lipids
Abstract Neurodegenerative diseases are pathological states characterized by progressive alterations in brain homeostasis during aging. Synucleinopathies, including Parkinson's disease and dementia with Lewy bodies, are defined neuropathologically by the accumulation of inclusions known as Lewy bodies and Lewy neurites.

Neuroprotection and Axonal Regeneration via ECM-Mimetic Nanofibers Incorporating Metal-Phenolic Network Nanoparticles Toward Spinal Cord Injury Repair. [PDF]
Metal–phenolic network (MPN) nanoparticles with neuroprotective functions are integrated into decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM) to obtain biomimetic composite fibrous scaffold MPN@dECM NFs by electrospinning, which protects spared neurons from secondary degeneration by suppressing excitotoxicity and inflammation, and promotes directional ...

Abstract Background Transsynaptic α‐synuclein propagation plays a crucial role in the progression of Lewy body disease. We previously demonstrated that an α‐amino‐3‐hydroxy‐5‐methyl‐4‐isoxazolepropionic acid receptor antagonist, perampanel, blocks neuronal uptake of α‐synuclein preformed fibrils (PFFs) in an activity‐dependent manner.
