Neuroprotective strategies against calpain-mediated neurodegeneration
Calpains are calcium-dependent proteolytic enzymes that have deleterious effects on neurons upon their pathological over-activation. According to the results of numerous studies to date, there is no doubt that abnormal calpain activation triggers activation and progression of apoptotic processes in neurodegeneration, leading to neuronal death. Thus, it is very crucial to unravel all the aspects...
متن کاملStrategies of therapeutic complement inhibition.
The involvement of complement in the pathogenesis of a great number of partly life threatening diseases defines the importance to develop inhibitors which specifically interfere with its deleterious action. Endogenous soluble complement-inhibitors, antibodies or low molecular weight antagonists, either blocking key proteins of the cascade reaction or neutralizing the action of the complement-de...
متن کاملEvaluating the efficacy of various therapeutic modalities in advanced esophageal cancer
Introduction: Esophageal cancer is an invasive and fatal malignancy, with the highest global incidence in southern and eastern Africa and eastern Asia. Patients with advanced localized disease and poor prognosis face a five-year survival rate of 15% to 34%. The research is aimed at evaluating Different strategies have been done to treat esophageal cancer by meta-analysis. <str...
متن کاملChronic Progressive Multiple Sclerosis – Pathogenesis of Neurodegeneration and Therapeutic Strategies
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory, autoimmune, demyelinating disease of the central nervous system (CNS) that usually starts as a relapsing-remitting disease. In most patients the disease evolves into a chronic progressive phase characterized by continuous accumulation of neurological deficits. While treatment of relapsing-remitting MS (RRMS) has improved dramatically over the last dec...
متن کاملCalpain inhibition prevents amyloid-beta-induced neurodegeneration and associated behavioral dysfunction in rats.
Amyloid-beta (Abeta) is toxic to neurons and such toxicity is - at least in part - mediated via the NMDA receptor. Calpain, a calcium dependent cystein protease, is part of the NMDA receptor-induced neurodegeneration pathway, and we previously reported that inhibition of calpain prevents excitotoxic lesions of the cholinergic nucleus basalis magnocellularis of Meynert. The present study reveals...
