P 340 Adenosine is a neuroprotective agent in retinal ischaemia
Puroose: Proliferative diabetic retinopathy is assumed to develop because vasogenic factors are released from retinal areas that are ischaemic and hypoxic secondary to occlusion of the retinal vascular bed. It has been propclsed that vascular occlusion in diabetic retinopethy may be due to the deposition of periodic acid Schiff positive glycoprotein compounds in the retinal vascular walls. but ...
متن کاملHumanin is a novel neuroprotective agent against stroke.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Humanin (HN) is a 24-amino acid peptide best known for its ability to protect neurons from damage caused by Alzheimer disease-related proteins. This study examines the neuroprotective effects of HNG (a potent form of HN) on focal cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury in mice. METHODS Mice underwent middle cerebral artery occlusion for 75 minutes followed by 24-hour reper...
متن کاملParkin A Multipurpose Neuroprotective Agent?
An autosomal recessive juvenile-onset form of Parkinson's disease (AR-JP) is caused by loss-of-function mutations of the parkin gene, which encodes a ubiquitin-protein ligase. Three recent reports demonstrate that parkin can protect neurons from diverse cellular insults, including alpha-synuclein toxicity, proteasomal dysfunction, Pael-R accumulation, and kainate-induced excitotoxicity. These f...
متن کاملIs magnesium neuroprotective following global and focal cerebral ischaemia? A review of published studies.
Neuroprotective activity with magnesium associated with animal models of cerebral ischaemia, seizure, perinatal hypoxia/ischaemia, subarachnoid haemorrhage and traumatic brain injury has provided the justification for clinical stroke trials. However, the recent IMAGES stroke clinical trial found magnesium to be largely ineffective. Hence, due to the negative stroke trial outcome, current FAST-M...
متن کاملProgesterone is neuroprotective following cerebral ischaemia in reproductively ageing female mice.
Gender differences in both vulnerability to stroke and outcome following cerebral ischaemia have frequently been observed and attributed to the action of steroid hormones. Progesterone is a candidate neuroprotective factor for stroke; however, studies are lacking which: (i) study those groups representing high risk i.e. postmenopausal females; (ii) administer progesterone solely post-ischaemia;...
