Neuroprotective effect of neuroglobin in hypoxia/ischemia [PDF]
Neuroglobin is a representative of the globin group, an oxygen-binding protein which is predominantly expressed in the nervous system. Despite the large amount of conducted research, its role is still poorly understood.

Role of Neuroglobin in the Neuroprotective Actions of Estradiol and Estrogenic Compounds
Estradiol exerts neuroprotective actions that are mediated by the regulation of a variety of signaling pathways and homeostatic molecules. Among these is neuroglobin, which is upregulated by estradiol and translocated to the mitochondria to sustain ...

Hyaluronate Nanoparticles as a Delivery System to Carry Neuroglobin to the Brain after Stroke [PDF]
Therapies against stroke can restore the blood supply but cannot prevent the ischemic damage nor stimulate the recovery of the infarcted zone. The neuroglobin protein plays an important role in the neuro-regeneration process after stroke; however, the ...

Neuroglobin over expressing mice: expression pattern and effect on brain ischemic infarct size. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Stroke is a major cause of death and severe disability, but effective treatments are limited. Neuroglobin, a neuronal heme-globin, has been advocated as a novel pharmacological target in combating stroke and neurodegenerative disorders based ...

Protection by neuroglobin expression in brain pathologies
Astrocytes play an important role in physiological, metabolic and structural functions and, when impaired, they can be involved in various pathologies including Alzheimer, focal ischemic stroke and traumatic brain injury.

Adaptations to hypoxia in the vertebrate retina. [PDF]
Abstract figure legend Most animals, including mammals, are susceptible to the damaging effects of hypoxia or ischaemia, where the result is neuronal cell death in the brain. By contrast, some neurons of the mammalian retina are less sensitive to hypoxia. In both brain and retina, neurons may survive if first preconditioned with ischaemia.

ObjectiveStroke is closely related to dementia, but there are few prospective studies on cognitive decline after stroke in patients with cerebral hemorrhage. Neuroglobin is an oxygen-binding protein mainly expressed in brain neurons.

Biophysical characterisation of neuroglobin of the icefish, a natural knockout for hemoglobin and myoglobin. Comparison with human neuroglobin. [PDF]
The Antarctic icefish Chaenocephalus aceratus lacks the globins common to most vertebrates, hemoglobin and myoglobin, but has retained neuroglobin in the brain. This conserved globin has been cloned, over-expressed and purified. To highlight similarities
