Estradiol activates PI3K/Akt/GSK3 pathway under chronic neurodegenerative conditions triggered by perinatal asphyxia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Perinatal asphyxia (PA) remains as one of the most important causes of short-term mortality, psychiatric and neurological disorders in children, without an effective treatment.

FTY720 controls disease severity and attenuates sciatic nerve damage in chronic experimental autoimmune neuritis

open access: yesJournal of Neuroinflammation, 2019
Background Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP) is an autoimmune-mediated inflammatory disease of the peripheral nervous system characterized by a response directed against certain myelin proteins and for which therapies are ...

The APCs of neuroprotection [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Investigation, 2009
Mutations in the enzyme superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) have been linked to the neurodegenerative disease amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). In this issue of the JCI, Zhong et al. report that the endogenous anticoagulant activated protein C (APC) is able to cross the blood-spinal cord barrier in mice and signal to both neuronal and non-neuronal cells ...

Cell Specific Changes of Autophagy in a Mouse Model of Contusive Spinal Cord Injury

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2018
Autophagy is an essential process of cellular waist clearance that becomes altered following spinal cord injury (SCI). Details on these changes, including timing after injury, underlying mechanisms, and affected cells, remain controversial.

Investigating the Potential Role of Ecological Validity on Change-Detection Memory Tasks and Distractor Processing in Younger and Older Adults

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2019
Cognitive performance is often found to be lower in older adults, especially when the task requires memory, executive functions, or selective attention.

Phase I and Phase II Therapies for Acute Ischemic Stroke: An Update on Currently Studied Drugs in Clinical Research. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Acute ischemic stroke is a devastating cause of death and disability, consequences of which depend on the time from ischemia onset to treatment, the affected brain region, and its size.

Neuroprotection in glaucoma [PDF]

open access: yesCell and Tissue Research, 2013
Glaucoma is a frequent eye disease in the elderly and the second leading cause of irreversible blindness both in developed and developing countries (Resnikoff et al. 2004). Presently, about 50 million people are blind from glaucoma worldwide, a number that has not significantly changed over the last decade (Resnikoff et al. 2004; Thylefors et al. 1995).

Brain-to-cervical lymph node signaling after stroke

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Brain damage induces systemic inflammation, but insights and implication of this induction is still unclear. Here the authors show, using rat and mouse focal cerebral ischemia models, that the damaged brain signals via the VEGF-C/VEFGR3 axis to activate ...

Modulation of neurotrophic signaling pathways by polyphenols [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Polyphenols are an important class of phytochemicals, and several lines of evidence have demonstrated their beneficial effects in the context of a number of pathologies including neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease. In

Neuroprotection in glaucoma

open access: yesIndian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2022
Neuroprotective therapies in glaucoma may play a role in preventing ischemia and oxidative damage that results in apoptosis of retinal ganglion cells and optic nerve damage. Although intraocular pressure (IOP) is the only known modifiable risk factor for glaucoma, disease progression commonly occurs despite IOP control, suggesting that factors other ...
