Microglia activation triggers oligodendrocyte precursor cells apoptosis via HSP60
Reactive microglia are present in lesions of myelin‑associated white matter disorders resulting in injuries to oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs). Therefore, protection of OPCs from injury due to excessive activation of microglia is important in treating these diseases. Heat shock protein 60 (HSP60) has been demonstrated to be released extracellularly in the failing heart upon stress or inj...
متن کاملEvolvulus alsinoides methanolic extract triggers apoptosis in HepG2 cells
Objective: The objective of the present study was to evaluate the cytotoxic potentials of Evolvulus alsinoides in human hepatoma HepG2 cells. Materials and Methods: HepG2 cells were treated with methanolic extract of E. alsinoides at 20, 40 and 80 µg/ml for 24 hr and cytotoxic effect was analyzed by MTT assay. The apoptosis rate was investigated by Hoechst 33342 and annexin V/propidium iodide s...
متن کاملOligodendrocyte Precursor Cells Synthesize Neuromodulatory Factors
NG2 protein-expressing oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPC) are a persisting and major glial cell population in the adult mammalian brain. Direct synaptic innervation of OPC by neurons throughout the brain together with their ability to sense neuronal network activity raises the question of additional physiological roles of OPC, supplementary to generating myelinating oligodendrocytes. In thi...
متن کاملAn Intracellular Timer in Oligodendrocyte Precursor Cells
Our interest in developmental timing began with a surprising experimental result obtained by Erika Abney, an immunologist who joined our group in the late 1970s. We had earlier defined a set of cell-type-specific markers that allowed us to distinguish the major types of glial cells found in suspensions and cultures of rat central nervous system (CNS) cells: astrocytes, which are heterogeneous a...
متن کاملElectrical signalling properties of oligodendrocyte precursor cells.
Oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) have become the focus of intense research, not only because they generate myelin-forming oligodendrocytes in the normal CNS, but because they may be suitable for transplantation to treat disorders in which myelin does not form or is damaged, and because they have stem-cell-like properties in that they can generate astrocytes and neurons as well as oligoden...
