Hydrogen Peroxide Upregulates TNF-Related Apoptosis-Inducing Ligand (TRAIL) Expression in Human Astroglial Cells, and Augments Apoptosis of T Cells
The brain is particularly vulnerable to oxygen free radicals, and these radicals have been implicated in the pathology of several neurological disorders. In this study, the modulation of TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) expression by oxidative stress was shown in LN215 cells, an astroglioma cell line. Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) treatment increased TRAIL expression in LN215 cells and ...
متن کاملDetection of Interleukin-19 mRNA in C57BL/6 Mice Astroglial Cells and Brain Cortex
Introduction: Astrocytes are the most abundant glial cell type. In addition to their neurological roles, astrocytes also have immune functions. They have been involved in antigen presentation in the central nervous system (CNS). Activated astrocytes express adhesion molecules, chemokines and release several inflammatory mediators, pro-inflammatory cytokines, neurotrophic and neuroprotective fac...
متن کاملBone morphogenetic proteins induce astroglial differentiation of oligodendroglial-astroglial progenitor cells.
We have used bipotent postnatal cortical oligodendroglial-astroglial progenitor cells (O-2As) to examine the role of inductive signals in astroglial lineage commitment. O-2A progenitor cells undergo progressive oligodendroglial differentiation when cultured in serum-free medium, but differentiate into astrocytes in medium supplemented with FBS. We now report that the bone morphogenetic proteins...
متن کاملFunctional changes in astroglial cells in epilepsy.
Epilepsy comprises a group of disorders characterized by the periodic occurrence of seizures, and pathologic specimens from patients with temporal lobe epilepsy demonstrate marked reactive gliosis. Since recent studies have implicated glial cells in novel physiological roles in the CNS, such as modulation of synaptic transmission, it is plausible that glial cells may have a functional role in t...
متن کاملResveratrol Prevents Ammonia Toxicity in Astroglial Cells
Ammonia is implicated as a neurotoxin in brain metabolic disorders associated with hyperammonemia. Acute ammonia toxicity can be mediated by an excitotoxic mechanism, oxidative stress and nitric oxide (NO) production. Astrocytes interact with neurons, providing metabolic support and protecting against oxidative stress and excitotoxicity. Astrocytes also convert excess ammonia and glutamate into...
