چکیده

introduction: neurotrophins belong to growth factor family and their function is based on their receptors. they bind two types of receptors: p75 and tyrosine kinase. the motoneuron survival or death depends upon the neurotrophic factors. recent studies have demonstrated that axotomy in peripheral nerve induces apoptosis of motoneuron. deprenyl or selegiline is known as a drug with neuroprotective effect on motoneurons. in this investigation, we evaluated mrna changes in p75 receptor by anti-apoptic effect of deprenyl in motoneuron death induced by axotomy of rat sciatic nerve. methods: the left sciatic nerves of sprague-dawley newborn 3 days old rats, were axotomized in the middle of thigh. the newborn rats were divided into two groups one group was treated with intra peritoneal injection of 2.5 mg/kg deprenyl (treated) and the other group with normal saline (untreated). each group was divided to 3 sub groups as, the first was treated with 2.5 mg/kg deprenyl or normal saline one hour before surgical transection, the second and third were treated at, and one hour after surgery, respectively. molecular studies for mrna changes trk-b and p75ntr receptor were done on two groups of animals which were sacrificed 4 hours after injection and other one, 24 hours after injection. results: the rt-pcr revealed that deprenyl has reduced the mrna p75 after 24 hours. conclusion: deprenyl can maintain motoneurons by reducing mrna p75 receptor.

Deprenyl changes the expression of Trk-B and P75 NTR receptors in rat after sciatic nerve axotomy

During development many of neurons die by the phenomenon named programmed cell death or apoptosis and this reaction is regulated by neurotrophin (BDNF, NGF, NT3 and NT4/5). These neurotrophins bind to two different classes of transmembrane receptor proteins, the Trks and P75 NTR. Axotomy can induce apoptosis after birth and deprenyl is a an inhibitor of monoamineoxidase type-B and seems to act ...

Deprenyl increases synaptophysin and choline acetyltransferase in rat after sciatic nerve axotomy

Neuroprotective effect of deprenyl on motoneurons of spinal cord after axotomy of peripheral nerves such as sciatic has been well established. Deprenyl is an inhibitor of monoamine oxidase type-B (MAO-B). The main function of this agent is the release of neurotransmitters from pre-synaptic terminals. Acetylcholine is a neurotransmitter that is synthesized by choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) and...

ABSTRACT 32 33 Injury or section of a peripheral nerve can promote chronic neuropathic pain. This is initiated by the 34 appearance and persistence of ectopic spontaneous activity in primary afferent neurons that 35 promotes a secondary, enduring increase in excitability of sens...
