Glutamate and excitotoxicity in central nervous system disorders: ionotropic glutamate receptors as a target for neuroprotection

open access: yesNeuroprotection
Recent advances in neuroscience have illuminated the central role of glutamate dysregulation in various neurological disorders. The glutamatergic system has emerged as a central player in the pathophysiology of various neurological disorders.

miR-182-5p Regulates Nogo-A Expression and Promotes Neurite Outgrowth of Hippocampal Neurons In Vitro

open access: yesPharmaceuticals, 2022
Nogo-A protein is a key myelin-associated inhibitor of axonal growth, regeneration, and plasticity in the central nervous system (CNS). Regulation of the Nogo-A/NgR1 pathway facilitates functional recovery and neural repair after spinal cord trauma and ...

Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor activation dilates cerebral arterioles, increases cerebral blood flow, and mediates remote (pre)conditioning neuroprotection against ischaemic stroke

open access: yesBasic Research in Cardiology, 2021
Stroke remains one of the most common causes of death and disability worldwide. Several preclinical studies demonstrated that the brain can be effectively protected against ischaemic stroke by two seemingly distinct treatments: remote ischaemic ...

MicroRNA-138-5p Targets Pro-Apoptotic Factors and Favors Neural Cell Survival: Analysis in the Injured Spinal Cord

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2022
The central nervous system microRNA miR-138-5p has attracted much attention in cancer research because it inhibits pro-apoptotic genes including CASP3. We hypothesize that miR-138-5p downregulation after SCI leads to overexpression of pro-apoptotic genes,

Histone Deacetylases Inhibitors in Neurodegenerative Diseases, Neuroprotection and Neuronal Differentiation

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2020
Histone deacetylases (HADC) are the enzymes that remove acetyl group from lysine residue of histones and non-histone proteins and regulate the process of transcription by binding to transcription factors and regulating fundamental cellular process such ...

Endothelial cells regulate astrocyte to neural progenitor cell trans-differentiation in a mouse model of stroke

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Damaged brains try to repair themselves by producing neurons in areas where neurogenesis does not normally occur. Here, the authors show that brain endothelial cells provide microvesicle-encased signals that convert parenchymal astrocytes into neural ...

A Randomized Trial of Erythropoietin for Neuroprotection in Preterm Infants.

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2020
BACKGROUND High-dose erythropoietin has been shown to have a neuroprotective effect in preclinical models of neonatal brain injury, and phase 2 trials have suggested possible efficacy; however, the benefits and safety of this therapy in extremely preterm

Neuroprotection by the Ketogenic Diet: Evidence and Controversies

open access: yesFrontiers in Nutrition, 2021
The ketogenic diet (KD) is a high-fat low-carbohydrate diet that has been used for decades as a non-pharmacologic approach to treat metabolic disorders and refractory pediatric epilepsy.
