Cortical neuronal apoptosis in CADASIL.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) is caused by mutations of the NOTCH3 gene and is a model of pure vascular dementia. Cortical atrophy has been reported to be associated with cognitive decline in the disease, although the underlying mechanism is unknown. We postulated that apoptosis may be involved in this...
متن کاملCholinergic neuronal deficits in CADASIL.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Previous evidence from MRI and acetylcholinesterase histochemistry suggests cholinergic fibers are affected in cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL). METHODS As a measure of cholinergic function, we assessed choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) activities in the frontal and temporal neocortices and the immunocyt...
متن کاملAttenuation of cortical neuronal apoptosis by gangliosides.
Addition of the natural gangliosides monosialoganglioside (GM1), disialoganglioside, trisialoganglioside, or tetrasialoganglioside in the range of 10 to 100 microM, but not asialoganglioside lacking the sialic acid moiety, attenuated cortical neuronal apoptosis induced by serum deprivation, ionomycin, or cyclosporin A but not by protein kinase inhibitors (staurosporine, genistein, lavendustin A...
متن کاملP 23: Apoptosis Following Cortical Spreading Depression in Juvenile Rats
Introduction: Repetitive cortical spreading depression (CSD) can lead to cell death in immature brain tissue. Caspases are involved in neuronal cell death in several CSD-related neurological disorders. Yet, whether repetitive CSD itself can induce caspase activation in adult or juvenile tissue remains unknown. Inducing repetitive CSD in somatosensory cortices of juvenile and adult rats in vivo,...
متن کاملCortical folding influences migraine aura symptoms in CADASIL.
OBJECTIVE Migraine with aura is a hallmark of cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL). In contrast with the majority of CADASIL patients, some affected subjects never experience visual symptoms during their attacks of migraine with aura. The aim of this study was to determine whether specific morphology of the primary visual cortex is...
