HIV's double strike at the brain: neuronal toxicity and compromised neurogenesis.
Infection with the human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) are often associated with severe and debilitating neurological problems that include behavioral abnormalities, motor dysfunction and frank dementia. HIV-1-infected peripheral immune cells, in particular macrophages, appear to infiltrate the CNS, release neurotoxins and provoke a neuropatholog...
متن کاملNeurogenesis and neuronal regeneration in the adult reptilian brain.
Evidence accumulated over the last few decades demonstrates that all reptiles examined thus far continue to add neurons at a high rate and in many regions of the adult brain. This so-called adult neurogenesis has been described in the olfactory bulbs, rostral forebrain, all cortical areas, anterior dorsal ventricular ridge, septum, striatum, nucleus sphericus, and cerebellum. The rate of neuron...
متن کاملNeurogenesis at the brain-cerebrospinal fluid interface.
Cerebral cortical progenitor cells can be classified into several different types, and each progenitor type integrates cell-intrinsic and cell-extrinsic cues to regulate neurogenesis. On one hand, cell-intrinsic mechanisms that depend upon appropriate apical-basal polarity are established by adherens junctions and apical complex proteins and are particularly important in progenitors with apical...

متن کاملNeuronal injury and death following focal mild brain injury: The role of network excitability and seizure
Objective(s): While traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a predisposing factor for development of post-traumatic epilepsy (PTE), the occurrence of seizures following brain trauma can infuriate adverse consequences of brain injury. However, the effect of seizures in epileptogenesis after mild TBI cannot yet be accurately confirmed. This study was designed to investigate the ...
