Microglial activation induces neuronal death in Chandipura virus infection
Neurotropic viruses induce neurodegeneration either directly by activating host death domains or indirectly through host immune response pathways. Chandipura Virus (CHPV) belonging to family Rhabdoviridae is ranked among the emerging pathogens of the Indian subcontinent. Previously we have reported that CHPV induces neurodegeneration albeit the root cause of this degeneration is still an open q...
متن کاملRotenone induces neuronal death by microglial phagocytosis of neurons.
Rotenone, a common pesticide and inhibitor of mitochondrial complex I, induces microglial activation and loss of dopaminergic neurons in models of Parkinson's disease. However, the mechanisms of rotenone neurotoxicity are still poorly defined. Here, we used primary neuronal/glial cultures prepared from rat cerebella to investigate the contribution of microglia to neuronal cell death induced by ...
متن کاملExcitotoxicity and neuronal death in epilepsy
Epilepsy is a recurrent, often progressive neurological disorder with a chronic evolution, affecting 1 to 2 % of the world population. Research with experimental models and imaging analysis of diseased patients have been used to show that recurrent episodes produce oxidative stress, most of which is related to neuronal excitability phenomena. It is known that the excessive stimulation of glutam...
متن کاملCabergoline, Dopamine D2 Receptor Agonist, Prevents Neuronal Cell Death under Oxidative Stress via Reducing Excitotoxicity
Several lines of evidence demonstrate that oxidative stress is involved in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases, including Parkinson's disease. Potent antioxidants may therefore be effective in the treatment of such diseases. Cabergoline, a dopamine D2 receptor agonist and antiparkinson drug, has been studied using several cell types including mesencephalic neurons, and is recognized ...
متن کاملMfn2 downregulation in excitotoxicity causes mitochondrial dysfunction and delayed neuronal death.
Mitochondrial fusion and fission is a dynamic process critical for the maintenance of mitochondrial function and cell viability. During excitotoxicity neuronal mitochondria are fragmented, but the mechanism underlying this process is poorly understood. Here, we show that Mfn2 is the only member of the mitochondrial fusion/fission machinery whose expression is reduced in in vitro and in vivo mod...
