Role of IL6 and TNFα in Hippocampal Neurogenesis of TAM Triple Knockout Mice
نویسندگان
چکیده
IL6 and TNFα are two main proinflammatory factors in brain. Both of them are found to play an important role in neurogenesis. However, in a chronic inflammatory disease model, TAM triple knockout mice, severe loss of neurogenesis is observed and this reduction is found to be only relevant to IL6 instead of TNFα. This finding indicates IL6 could be a promising target for treatment of some neurodegenerative diseases which are accompanied with severe neuroinflammation.

Objective(s): Epidemiological and biochemical studies conducted over the past two decades have established a strong link between type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and Alzheimer’s disease (AD). However, the exact mechanisms through which aberrations in insulin signaling associated with T2DM contribute to cognitive decline are not yet known. Materials and Methods: In an effort to explore possible m...

Neurogenesis occurs throughout life in several regions of the brain. In this lecture, a new sight for the role of the dentate gyrus and adult hippocampal neurogenesis in anxiety disorders will be discussed. The region that has obtained the most attention for its involvement in the neurogenesis of affective and anxiety disorders are the hippocampal and dentate gyrus. Evidence strongly suggests t...

Background & Aims: Adult neurogenesis occurs in the two main areas of the brain of most mammalian species in; sub ventricular zone, and the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus. Many factors such as 17-β estradiol affect neurogenesis in the hippocampus. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of exogenous 17-β estradiol on neurogenesis in the ovariectomized (OVX) mice. Materials & Meth...

Neuroinflammation as a protective mechanism for repairing tissue damage in the central nervous system (CNS), has been classified into two types: acute and chronic. It is characterized by the activation of microglia and astrocytes and the increase levels of different chemokines and cytokines. Neuroinflammation can be harmful, and it is a common pathological feature in neurodegenerative and psych...
