A Synthesized Glucocorticoid- Induced Leucine Zipper Peptide Inhibits Retinal Müller Cell Gliosis
Purpose: The anti-inflammatory activities of protein glucocorticoid-induced leucine zipper (GILZ) have been demonstrated in vivo and in vitro. Here, we examined the potential effect of a synthetic peptide derived from the leucine zipper motif and proline-

Gliosis and Neurodegenerative Diseases: The Role of PET and MR Imaging
Glial activation characterizes most neurodegenerative and psychiatric diseases, often anticipating clinical manifestations and macroscopical brain alterations. Although imaging techniques have improved diagnostic accuracy in many neurological conditions,

Hypothalamic inflammation and gliosis in obesity [PDF]
Hypothalamic inflammation and gliosis are recently discovered mechanisms that may contribute to obesity pathogenesis. Current research in this area suggests that investigation of these central nervous system responses may provide opportunities to develop new weight loss treatments.In rodents, hypothalamic inflammation and gliosis occur rapidly with ...

ConclusionMorphologic and histochemical studies of glial reaction during Wallerian degeneration in the dorsal column of the spinal cord have shown that reactive gliosis is independent of alterations of the blood-spinal cord barrier. These data suggest that substances inducing gliosis may pre-exist in normal central nervous system tissue.

BMP pathway and reactive retinal gliosis [PDF]
Reactive gliosis is known to have a beneficial and a degenerative effect following injury to neurons. Although many factors have been implicated in reactive gliosis, their role in regulating this change is still unclear.

Dysregulated glutamate signaling, leading to neuronal excitotoxicity and death, has been associated with neurodegenerative pathologies. 17β-estradiol (E2) is a human steroid hormone having a role in reproduction, sexual maturation, brain health and ...

Searching for Neuropathology: Gliosis in Schizophrenia [PDF]
The neuropathology of schizophrenia remains elusive. One indication of this elusiveness is that the literature, in contrast to that on the neuropathology of almost any other disease, deals predominantly with measures of normal structures rather than with the demonstration and characterization of pathological structures.

Kinins are vasoactive peptides and mediators of inflammation, which signal through two G protein-coupled receptors, B1 and B2 receptors (B1R, B2R). Recent pre-clinical findings suggest a primary role for B1R in a rat model of wet age-related macular ...
