چکیده

Although the transcription factor, nuclear factor survival, its precise role in cell death within the central nervous system (CNS) remains unknown. previously reported that mice with a homozygous deficiency for NF optic neuropathy. We examined the expression and activation of pro mediate optic neuropathy in p50 known to regulate the recombination of immunoglobulin V(D)J. Experiments with gene engineered mice revealed the involvement of Rag1 expression in the apoptosis of Brn3a retinal ganglion cells (RGCs), and also showed the specific effects of a p50 activation of Rag1 gene transcription. Furthermore, a gene cells clarified the biological significance of Rag1 in NMDA apoptosis. The apoptotic regulating factors, Bax, and cleaved caspase HEK293 cells expressing the external molecule of Rag1, and a human histological examination revealed the expression of Rag1 in RGCs. neuropathy as a pro-apoptotic candida targets in optic neuropathy.

Physiological significance of Rag1 in optic nerve neuropathy

Although the transcription factor, nuclear factorB (NFB) is known to regulate cell death and survival, its precise role in cell death within the central nervous system (CNS) remains unknown. We previously reported that mice with a homozygous deficiency for NFBp50 spontaneously developed optic neuropathy. We studied the expression and activation of pro-apoptotic factor(s), which mediate optic ne...

Hippocampal Astrocyte Response to Melatonin Following Neural Damage Induction in Rats

Introduction: Brain injury induces an almost immediate response from glial cells, especially astrocytes. Activation of astrocytes leads to the production of inflammatory cytokines and reactive oxygen species that may result in secondary neuronal damage. Melatonin is an anti-inflammatory and antioxidant agent, and it has been reported to exert neuroprotection through the prevention of neuronal d...

Myristica fragrans Houtt extract attenuates neuronal loss and glial activation in pentylenetetrazol-induced kindling model

Inflammatory reactions are closely associated with the development and progression of epilepsy. It has been shown that inhibition of pro-inflammatory cytokines, which are released from activated astrocytes and microglia, are considered to be an effective therapeutic approach for the treatment of epileptic disorders. Regarding the anti-inflammatory effects of nutmeg (Myristica fragrans Houtt), t...

Effects of spironolactone and fludrocortisone on neuronal and glial toxicity induced by N-methyl-D-Aspartate and chloroquine in cell culture

Spironolactone has produced beneficial effects in animal models of neurodegenerative disorders. However, the underlying mechanisms of this agent on neurons and glia are mostly unknown. Therefore, we aimed to show the effects of spironolactone and fludrocortisone, a mineralocorticosteroid receptor agonist, on neuronal and glial toxicity induced by N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) activation and chlor...
