Ginger and Propolis Exert Neuroprotective Effects against Monosodium Glutamate-Induced Neurotoxicity in Rats.
Central nervous system cytotoxicity is linked to neurodegenerative disorders. The objective of the study was to investigate whether monosodium glutamate (MSG) neurotoxicity can be reversed by natural products, such as ginger or propolis, in male rats. Four different groups of Wistar rats were utilized in the study. Group A served as a normal control, whereas group B was orally administered with...
متن کاملNeuroprotective effect of ACE inhibitors in glutamate - induced neurotoxicity: rat neuron culture study.
AIM Glutamate is known to be neurotoxic at concentrations of 10-6M and 10-7M. Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors can be assumed to be neuroprotective as they open the mitochondrial adenosine triphosphate-sensitive potassium channels by inhibiting the degradation of bradykinin. In this study, we investigated whether the ACE inhibitors captopril, ramipril and perindopril have protecti...
متن کاملNeuroprotective Activity of Pongamia pinnata in Monosodium Glutamate-induced Neurotoxicity in Rats
This study was designed to evaluate the neuroprotective activity of ethanol extract of Pongamia pinnata stem bark in monosodium glutamate-induced neurotoxicity in rats. Neurotoxicity was induced by intraperitoneal injection of monosodium glutamate 2 g per kg body weight daily for 7 days. Ethanol extract of Pongamia pinnata stem bark (200 and 400 mg/kg) was administered orally after 1 h of monos...
متن کاملNeuroprotective effect of ginsenoside Rb1 on glutamate-induced neurotoxicity: with emphasis on autophagy.
Ginsenoside Rb1 has been demonstrated with neuroprotective effects, but the mechanisms remain unclear. This study aimed to probe the effects and mechanisms of ginsenoside Rb1 on activation of autophagy in glutamate-injured neurons. Ginsenoside Rb1 of exponential concentrations (1.2, 12, 120 microM) or autophagy inhibitor 3-methyladenine (5mM) was added to culture medium for cortical neurons aft...
متن کاملNeuroprotective Effect of Total and Sequential Extract of Scrophularia striata Boiss. in Rat Cerebellar Granule Neurons Following Glutamate- Induced Neurotoxicity: An In-vitro Study
Neuroprotective effect of the extract from aerial parts of Scrophularia striata Boiss(Scrophulariaceae) was investigated against glutamate-induced neurotoxicity on cultured rat pupsCerebellar Granule Neurons (CGNs). CGNs from 8 days old Sprague-Dawley rat were preparedand cultured. The experiments were performed after 8 days in culture. The plant was collected fromthe northeastern part (Ruin re...
