Oleuropein Attenuates Deltamethrin-induced Apoptosis in Rat Cerebellar Purkinje Neurons
Background: Deltamethrin (DM) is a synthetic pyrethroid insecticide that can elicit neurotoxicity, and lead to apoptosis. There is accumulating evidence that oleuropein (OE) has anti-apoptotic effect. This study aimed at determining the DM toxicity and anti-apoptotic effect of OE pretreatment in cerebellar Purkinje neurons. Materials and Methods: Rats were randomly divided into four groups a...
متن کاملPersistent phosphorylation parallels long-term desensitization of cerebellar purkinje cell AMPA-type glutamate receptors.
This study is aimed at testing the hypothesis that sustained phosphorylation underlies long-term desensitization of AMPA receptors, which is thought to be the mechanism of long-term synaptic depression in cerebellar Purkinje cells (PCs). We induced long-term desensitization of AMPA receptors in rat cerebellar slices by (1) a 4-min bath application of quisqualate (0.1 mM) or (2) a 15-min bath ap...
متن کاملModeling and analysis of calcium signaling events leading to long-term depression in cerebellar Purkinje cells.
Modeling and simulation of the calcium signaling events that precede long-term depression of synaptic activity in cerebellar Purkinje cells are performed using the Virtual Cell biological modeling framework. It is found that the unusually high density and low sensitivity of inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP3R) are critical to the ability of the cell to generate and localize a calcium s...
متن کاملAltered Dendritic Morphology of Purkinje cells in Dyt1 ΔGAG Knock-In and Purkinje Cell-Specific Dyt1 Conditional Knockout Mice
BACKGROUND DYT1 early-onset generalized dystonia is a neurological movement disorder characterized by involuntary muscle contractions. It is caused by a trinucleotide deletion of a GAG (ΔGAG) in the DYT1 (TOR1A) gene encoding torsinA; the mouse homolog of this gene is Dyt1 (Tor1a). Although structural and functional alterations in the cerebellum have been reported in DYT1 dystonia, neuronal mor...
