Lead and Neurotoxicity [PDF]

open access: yesIndian Journal of Clinical Biochemistry, 2015
The lead exposure is a public health concern, especially in early childhood as children are more at risk because of increased hand to mouth activity and absorb about half of an oral dose of water-soluble lead [1]. Childhood lead exposure is estimated to contribute to 600,000 new cases of children with intellectual disabilities every year with 99 % of ...

Role of ferroptosis in hypoxic preconditioning to reduce propofol neurotoxicity

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2023
Background: An increasing number of studies have reported that neurotoxicity of propofol may cause long-term learning and cognitive dysfunction. Hypoxic preconditioning has been shown to have neuroprotective effects, reducing the neurotoxicity of ...

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Cross-Neutralisation of In Vitro Neurotoxicity of Asian and Australian Snake Neurotoxins and Venoms by Different Antivenoms

open access: yesToxins, 2016
There is limited information on the cross-neutralisation of neurotoxic venoms with antivenoms. Cross-neutralisation of the in vitro neurotoxicity of four Asian and four Australian snake venoms, four post-synaptic neurotoxins (α-bungarotoxin, α-elapitoxin-

Glutathione Transferase-M2-2 Secreted from Glioblastoma Cell Protects SH-SY5Y Cells from Aminochrome Neurotoxicity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
U373MG cells are able to take up aminochrome that induces glutathione transferase M2-2 (GSTM2) expression in a concentration-dependent manner where 100 A mu M aminochrome increases GSTM2 expression by 2.1-fold (P < 0.001) at 3 h.

The heterodimeric amino acid transporters (HAT) of the SLC7/SLC3 family: A structure−function relationships and relevance to human pathology

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Heterodimeric amino acid transporters consist of SLC7 and SLC3 family proteins arranged in a conserved structural organization. They regulate nutrient transport across cell membranes, supporting essential cellular functions. These transporters also contribute to xenobiotic/drug uptake and distribution.

A case of spinal nerve neurotoxicity with ropivacaine after combined spinal and epidural anesthesia

open access: yesJA Clinical Reports, 2021
Background Neurotoxicity caused by a local anesthetic after regional anesthesia is a rare but serious problem for anesthesiologists. It is difficult to diagnose neurotoxicity from anesthetics because of the large number of possible diagnoses.

Protection against Amyloid-β Oligomer Neurotoxicity by Small Molecules with Antioxidative Properties: Potential for the Prevention of Alzheimer’s Disease Dementia

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2022
Soluble oligomeric assemblies of amyloid β-protein (Aβ), called Aβ oligomers (AβOs), have been recognized as primary pathogenetic factors in the molecular pathology of Alzheimer’s disease (AD).

Accurate and noninvasive prostate cancer detection using plasma‐derived extracellular vesicle RNA

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Plasma extracellular vesicles were captured with WGA‐conjugated magnetic beads and profiled for RNA biomarkers. A three‐RNA panel (NM_024955, NR_047469, and NR_002564) distinguished prostate cancer from healthy controls and benign prostatic hyperplasia, supporting a simple, noninvasive approach to improve prostate cancer detection.

Neurotoxicity of Sri Lankan Krait (Bungarus ceylonicus) and Common Krait (Bungarus caeruleus) Venoms and Their Neutralisation by Commercial Antivenoms In Vitro

open access: yesToxins
The common krait (Bungarus caeruleus) and the endemic Sri Lankan krait (B. ceylonicus) are two species of krait responsible for envenomings in Sri Lanka that result in progressive neuromuscular paralysis. We characterised the in vitro neurotoxicity of B.
