VPAC2 receptors mediate vasoactive intestinal peptide-induced neuroprotection against neonatal excitotoxic brain lesions in mice.
Prepro-vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) mRNA codes for two neuropeptides: VIP and peptide histidine isoleucine (PHI). Two VIP receptors, shared with a similar affinity by pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP), have been cloned: VPAC(1) and VPAC(2). PHI binds to these receptors with a lower affinity. VPAC receptors are classically associated with a cAMP-dependent pathway,...
متن کاملNeuroprotection against surgically induced brain injury.
BACKGROUND Neurosurgical procedures are carried out routinely in health institutions across the world. A key issue to be considered during neurosurgical interventions is that there is always an element of inevitable brain injury that results from the procedure itself because of the unique nature of the nervous system. Brain tissue at the periphery of the operative site is at risk of injury by v...
متن کاملBrain Sciences Special Issue: Neuroprotection against Ischemic Brain Injury
It was my great pleasure to have acted as the guest editor for the Brain Sciences Special Issue on Neuroprotection against Ischemic Brain Injury. This Special Issue consists of a total of 18 articles covering a range of topics with the purpose of providing new knowledge and exploring novel interventions that one day may be used to better protect and repair the brain after ischemia.

متن کاملIntrinsic neurons of fastigial nucleus mediate neurogenic neuroprotection against excitotoxic and ischemic neuronal injury in rat.
Electrical stimulation of the cerebellar fastigial nucleus (FN) elevates regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) and arterial pressure (AP) and provides long-lasting protection against focal and global ischemic infarctions. We investigated which neuronal element in FN, perikarya or axons, mediates this central neurogenic neuroprotection and whether it also protects against excitotoxicity. In anesth...
متن کاملDepletion of Ovarian Primordial Follicles after Gamma Irradiation
Introduction:Artifical sourace of radiation have increased worldwide average annual exposure of mankind and could especially affect rapidly dividing cells in gonads. Since, radiation sensitivities of different components of primordial follicles, and the time required for their deplation have not been morphologically eatablished we decided to estimate the time required for depletion of primordi...
