EP2 Receptor Signaling Regulates Microglia Death.
The timely resolution of inflammation prevents continued tissue damage after an initial insult. In the brain, the death of activated microglia by apoptosis has been proposed as one mechanism to resolve brain inflammation. How microglial death is regulated after activation is still unclear. We reported that exposure to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and interleukin (IL)-13 together initially activates...
متن کاملMechanisms underlying neuronal death induced by chromogranin A-activated microglia.
The neurotoxic effects of activated microglia in neurodegenerative diseases are well established. We recently provided evidence that chromogranin A (CGA), a multifunctional protein localized in dystrophic neurites and in senile plaques, induces an activated phenotype and secretion of neurotoxins by rat microglia in culture. In the present study, we focused on the mechanisms underlying neuronal ...
متن کاملPLK1 Inhibitors: Setting the Mitotic Death Trap
Polo-like kinase 1 (Plk1) regulates mitotic progression in all eukaryotes and has been implicated in the transformation of human cells. Analysis of the cytological and anti-tumor activities of BI 2536, a novel, selective pharmacological inhibitor of Plk1, has connected chemistry and biology to the bedside.
متن کاملMicroglia as a stem cell
Microglia is considered the only cell population of mesodermal origin, which comprises 10% of the cells in brain parenchyma. Recent neural stem cell (NSC) studies demonstrate that the brain has regenerative potential. NSCs do not give rise to microglial cells, however indicating that NSCs alone cannot complete the regenetion of the brain. Although the role of microglia is not fully understood, ...
