Inflammation in Neurodegenerative Disease—A Double-Edged Sword
Inflammation is a defense reaction against diverse insults, designed to remove noxious agents and to inhibit their detrimental effects. It consists of a dazzling array of molecular and cellular mechanisms and an intricate network of controls to keep them in check. In neurodegenerative diseases, inflammation may be triggered by the accumulation of proteins with abnormal conformations or by signa...
متن کاملCaveolin-1 in Cardiovascular Disease: A Double-Edged Sword
Endothelial dysfunction, as manifested by an attenuation of nitric oxide (NO)–mediated vasodilation, is recognized to be a fundamental abnormality in the genesis of hypertension, atherosclerosis, and coronary artery disease (1). Metabolic risk factors, such as obesity, insulin resistance, and type 2 diabetes (T2D), can initiate and accelerate endothelial dysfunction leading to cardiovascular di...
متن کاملLevodopa-induced plasticity: a double-edged sword in Parkinson's disease?
The long-term replacement therapy with the dopamine (DA) precursor 3,4-dihydroxy-l-phenylalanine (L-DOPA) is a milestone in the treatment of Parkinson's disease (PD). Although this drug precursor can be metabolized into the active neurotransmitter DA throughout the brain, its therapeutic benefit is due to restoring extracellular DA levels within the dorsal striatum, which lacks endogenous DA as...

متن کاملNicotine: A Double-Edged Sword in Atherosclerotic Disease.
UNLABELLED Chronic cigarette smoking is well-known to damage vascular endothelium, which initiates atherosclerosis by first manifesting as endothelial dysfunction and later progressing to cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Nicotine, a major component of tobacco smoke, is traditionally thought to be responsible for increased cardiovascular events through stimulation of the sympathetic nervous system...
