White Matter Ischemia or Endogenic, Senile Neurodegenerative Process?
نویسنده
چکیده
Knowledge of the pathogenesis of coronary artery disease enables associate it with one of possible interrelationships of CAD with the cognitive impairment in the elderly. The chain of atherosclerotic transformations can be the same both in coronary and cerebral vessels. These changes begin from increased endothelial permeability, leucocytes migration into the arterial walls, adherence and aggregation of platelets and lipid infiltration.

Metabolic, inflammatory, and microvascular determinants of white matter disease and cognitive decline.
White Matter Disease is increasingly being recognized as an important cause of cognitive decline and dementia. Various investigations have linked chronic diet-related conditions to the development of white matter lesions, which appear as white matter hyperintensities on T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans of the brain. Thus, it can be postulated that the metabolic, inflammatory, ...
متن کاملChronic brain ischemia induces the expression of glial glutamate transporter EAAT2 in subcortical white matter.
Glutamate plays a central role in brain physiology and pathology. The involvement of excitatory amino acid transporters (EAATs) in neurodegenerative disorders including acute stroke has been widely studied, but little is known about the role of glial glutamate transporters in white matter injury after chronic cerebral hypoperfusion. The present study evaluated the expression of glial (EAAT1 and...
متن کاملCorrection: White Matter Injury Due to Experimental Chronic Cerebral Hypoperfusion Is Associated with C5 Deposition
The C5 complement protein is a potent inflammatory mediator that has been implicated in the pathogenesis of both stroke and neurodegenerative disease. Microvascular failure is proposed as a potential mechanism of injury. Along these lines, this investigation examines the role of C5 in the setting of chronic cerebral hypoperfusion. Following experimental bilateral carotid artery stenosis, C5 pro...
متن کاملAge-dependent modifications of axons, mitochondrial dynamics, and Ca2+ homeostasis underlie the vulnerability of aging white matter to ischemia
Aging white matter (WM) is increasingly susceptible to neurodegenerative diseases and stroke. Among others, changes in ATP production, mitochondrial dynamics, and Ca2+ homeostasis contribute to increased susceptibility of aging WM to stroke. We utilized a pure white matter tract, mouse optic nerve (MON), obtained from 2and 12-month old mice to quantify axon structure and function using electrop...
متن کاملDiffusion tensor imaging investigations in Alzheimer’s disease: the resurgence of white matter compromise in the cortical dysfunction of the aging brain
Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) is a sophisticated MRI-based neuroimaging technique that enables in vivo quantification of differences in molecular diffusion at the cellular level. Owing to the highly directional architecture of white matter (WM), DTI is providing important clues of the structure and geometric organization of this neural compartment. Since DTI can detect changes even in the case...
