Manganese Neurotoxicity and Familial Disorders of Manganese Transport
ABSTRACT Manganese is the 12th most common element in the Earth's crust and is an essential industrial component. Biologically, this metal plays an important role as a constituent of numerous enzymes. While manganese is required for normal biochemical and physiological processes, manganese excess can lead to significant toxicity, particularly to the ...

Exploring biomarkers of neurodegeneration in epilepsy: Critical insights
Abstract The advent of biofluid biomarkers for neurodegenerative disorders has precipitated a surge in recent evidence regarding their role in epilepsy. In this literature review, we examine the diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic potential of several biomarkers, including amyloid‐beta (Aβ) protein, total (t‐tau), phosphorylated tau (p‐tau) protein,

Rotenone and 6-hydroxydopamine are two drugs commonly used to generate Parkinson’s disease animal models. They not only achieve degenerative changes of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra, but also satisfy the requirements for iron deposition ...

Parkinson's disease is a progressive neurological disease characterized by the degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra. A highly similar pattern of neurodegeneration can be induced by 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine ...

Inherited metabolic epilepsies–established diseases, new approaches
Abstract Inherited metabolic epilepsies (IMEs) represent the inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs) in which epilepsy is a prevailing component, often determining other neurodevelopmental outcomes associated with the disorder. The different metabolic pathways affected by individual IMEs are the basis of their rarity and heterogeneity.

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a brain degenerative disorder with unknown etiology, and specific degeneration of mesencephalic dopaminergic cells is a morphological manifestation of the disease. The central histaminergic system appears to be activated in PD,

Neuroprotective Effect of Ghrelin on Substantia Nigra in Parkinson Disease Model Induced -MPTP [PDF]
Aim and Background: Parkinson's disease is a progressive central nervous system disorder. This disease is caused by degenerative loss of dopaminergic neurons of midbrain, from substantia nigra to corpus striatum pathway.

Operant Self-Stimulation of Dopamine Neurons in the Substantia Nigra
We examined the contribution of the nigrostriatal DA system to instrumental learning and behavior using optogenetics in awake, behaving mice. Using Cre-inducible channelrhodopsin-2 (ChR2) in mice expressing Cre recombinase driven by the tyrosine ...

Absence seizures: Update on signaling mechanisms and networks
Abstract Absence seizures (AS) are a hallmark of genetic generalized epilepsies (GGE), characterized by brief episodes of impaired consciousness accompanied by electroencephalographic spike‐and‐wave discharges (SWDs). Traditionally attributed to cortico‐thalamo‐cortical (CTC) dysrhythmia, emerging evidence suggests a more intricate pathophysiological ...
