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 ...

Neuroprotection in glaucoma

open access: yesIndian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2011
Glaucoma is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by loss of retinal ganglion cells and their axons. Recent evidence suggests that intraocular pressure (IOP) is only one of the many risk factors for this disease. Current treatment options for this disease have been limited to the reduction of IOP; however, it is clear now that the disease ...

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 ...

Neuroprotection in a Novel Mouse Model of Multiple Sclerosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Multiple sclerosis is an immune-mediated, demyelinating and neurodegenerative disease that currently lacks any neuroprotective treatments. Innovative neuroprotective trial designs are required to hasten the translational process of drug development.

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.

Characteristics of primary rat microglia isolated from mixed cultures using two different methods

open access: yesJournal of Neuroinflammation, 2017
Background Microglial cultures comprise a critically important model system for investigating inflammatory mechanisms in almost all CNS disorders. Mild trypsinization and shaking are the two most commonly used methods to isolate primary microglia from ...

Quercetin in Hypoxia-Induced Oxidative Stress: Novel Target for Neuroprotection

open access: yes, 2012
Oxidative stress in the central nervous system is one of the key players for neurodegeneration. Thus, antioxidants could play important roles in treating several neurodegenerative diseases including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and aging ...

Adrenomedullin promotes differentiation of oligodendrocyte precursor cells into myelin-basic-protein expressing oligodendrocytes under pathological conditions in vitro

open access: yesStem Cell Research, 2015
Oligodendrocytes, which are the main cell type in cerebral white matter, are generated from their precursor cells (oligodendrocyte precursor cells: OPCs).
