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 ...

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

Research progress of neurovascular units involved in ischemic stroke

open access: yesIbrain, EarlyView.
The brain receives less blood when an ischemic stroke develops, which damages neurons and leads to an increased release of Pro‐inflammatory mediators that activate neurovascular unit (NVU). When the tight junctions are broken and the basement membrane is disrupted by matrix metalloproteinases produced by active endothelial and pericellular cells ...

Inappropriate Intrusion of an Axonal Mitochondrial Anchor into Dendrites Causes Neurodegeneration

open access: yesCell Reports, 2019
Summary: Syntaphilin (SNPH) is a major mitochondrial anchoring protein targeted to axons and excluded from dendrites. In this study, we provide in vivo evidence that this spatial specificity is lost in Shiverer (Shi) mice, a model for progressive ...

The Tau/A152T mutation, a risk factor for frontotemporal‐spectrum disorders, leads to NR2B receptor‐mediated excitotoxicity

open access: yesEMBO Reports, 2016
We report on a novel transgenic mouse model expressing human full‐length Tau with the Tau mutation A152T (hTauAT), a risk factor for FTD‐spectrum disorders including PSP and CBD.

The role of D-serine and glycine as co-agonists of NMDA receptors in motor neuron degeneration and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The fundamental role of D-serine as a co-agonist at the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR), mediating both physiological actions of glutamate in long term potentiation and nociception and also pathological effects mediated by excitotoxicty, are well ...

Excitotoxicity-Associated p53 Expression in Adult Rat Retina Is Mediated by Calpain Activity but Not by Cl− Influx

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2009
.: We have previously demonstrated an important role of influx of Cl− rather than Ca2+ in acute excitotoxicity in adult rat retina. As p53 has been implicated in delayed apoptotic cell death, here we examined the appearance of p53 immunoreactivity in a ...

Useful Role of a New Generation of Dexamethasone, Vitamin E and Human Serum Albumin Microparticles in the Prevention of Excitotoxicity Injury in Retinal Ocular Diseases

open access: yesPharmaceutics
Excitotoxicity has been linked to the pathogenesis of several serious degenerative ocular diseases. Long-term overactivation of the NMDA receptor by glutamate in retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) results in degeneration, apoptosis and loss of function ...

TrkB-ICD Fragment, Originating From BDNF Receptor Cleavage, Is Translocated to Cell Nucleus and Phosphorylates Nuclear and Axonal Proteins

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2019
The signaling of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) has been suggested to be impaired in Alzheimer’s disease (AD), which may compromise the function of BDNF upon neuronal activity and survival.
