What's new? The spatial distribution of glioma is nonrandom. However, whether pathological grade influences glioma distribution across the brain remains unclear. Here, the authors built a population‐based frequency map for 396 patients with glioblastoma multiforme and 190 patients with lower‐grade glioma, revealing their distinct topographic ...

Superoxide and Non-ionotropic Signaling in Neuronal Excitotoxicity
Excitotoxicity is classically attributed to Ca2+ influx through NMDA receptors (NMDAr), leading to production of nitric oxide by neuronal nitric oxide synthase and superoxide by mitochondria, which react to form highly cytotoxic peroxynitrite.

Inhibition of the mitochondrial pyruvate carrier protects from excitotoxic neuronal death. [PDF]
Glutamate is the dominant excitatory neurotransmitter in the brain, but under conditions of metabolic stress it can accumulate to excitotoxic levels.

Sex differences in ADHD have not been adequately considered, particularly for studies of fractional anisotropy (FA), a measure of white matter microstructural development. Results here demonstrate that ADHD symptom domains are differentially related to FA, highlighting the multi‐componential nature of the disorder.

Exploration of the glutamate-mediated retinal excitotoxic damage: a rat model of retinal neurodegeneration [PDF]
AIM: To explore the more suitable concentration of glutamate or N-methyl-D-aspartic acid (NMDA) for intravitreal injection to establish a rat model of retinal neurodegeneration.

Mechanism of Zinc Excitotoxicity: A Focus on AMPK
Over the last 20 years, it has been shown that complex signaling cascades are involved in zinc excitotoxicity. Free zinc rapidly induces PKC activation, which causes reactive oxygen species (ROS) production at least in part through NADPH oxidase. It also

Lithium from mood stabilizer to putative cognitive enhancer [PDF]
This study is the first to have demonstrated, by means of a highly sensitive test of visual memory, a potential hippocampus neuroprotective effect of lithium in patients with BD. Undoubtedly, other studies are needed to finally recognize lithium as a

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 ...

Mutations in C9ORF72 are the most common cause of familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Here, through a combination of RNA-Seq and electrophysiological studies on induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived motor neurons (MNs), we show that ...

Absence of system xc⁻ on immune cells invading the central nervous system alleviates experimental autoimmune encephalitis [PDF]
Background: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune demyelinating disease that affects the central nervous system (CNS), leading to neurodegeneration and chronic disability.
