Acute secondary neuronal cell death, as seen in neurodegenerative disease, cerebral ischemia (stroke) and traumatic brain injury (TBI), drives spreading neurotoxicity into surrounding, undamaged, brain areas. This spreading toxicity occurs via two mechanisms, synaptic toxicity through hyperactivity, and excitotoxicity following the accumulation of extracellular glutamate. To date, there are no ...
Glial cells are thought to protect neurons from various neurological insults. When there is injury to retina, Müller cells, which are the predominant glial element in the retina, undergo significant morphological, cellular and molecular changes. Some of these changes reflect Müller cell involvement in protecting the retina from further damage. Müller cells express growth factors, neurotransmitt...
Neurotoxic effects of excitatory amino acids have been implicated in various neurological disorders, and have been utilized for excitotoxic models of delayed neuronal cell death. The excitotoxic glutamate-induced, delayed neuronal cell death also results in inhibition of calcium/calmodulin-dependent kinase II (CaM kinase II). In this report, we characterized the glutamate-induced inhibition of ...
OBJECTIVES Excitotoxicity plays a significant role in the pathogenesis of perinatal brain injuries. Among the consequences of excessive activation of the N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA)-type glutamate are oxidative stress caused by free radical release from damaged mitochondria, neuronal death and subsequent loss of connectivity. Drugs that could protect nervous tissue and support regeneration are ...
Cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (cdk5) is a member of the cyclin-dependent kinase family whose activity is localized mainly to postmitotic neurons attributable to the selective expression of its activating partners p35 and p39. Deregulation of cdk5, as a result of calpain cleavage of p35 to a smaller p25 form, has been suggested to be a central component of neuronal death underlying numerous neurodeg...
Induced expression of neuroprotective genes is essential for maintaining neuronal integrity after stressful insults to the brain. Here we show that NR4A nuclear orphan receptors are induced after excitotoxic and oxidative stress in neurons, up-regulate neuroprotective genes, and increase neuronal survival. Moreover, we show that NR4A proteins are induced by cAMP response element binding protein...
Introduction The prefrontal cortex (PFC) and the dopaminergic system have been implicated in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia. However, how these two neuronal systems interact with each other is not fully understood. Previous studies in rats have indicated that the PFC regulates the firing of dopamine (DA) neurons as well as DA-related behaviors through projections to subcortical areas incl...
The tumor suppressor gene p53 has been implicated in the loss of neuronal viability, but the signaling events associated with p53-mediated cell death in cortical and hippocampal neurons are not understood. Previous work has shown that adenovirus-mediated delivery of the p53 gene causes cortical and hippocampal neuronal cell death with some features typical of apoptosis. In the present study we ...
