CART peptide induces neuroregeneration in stroke rats
Utilizing a classic stroke model in rodents, middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAo), we describe a novel neuroregenerative approach using the repeated intranasal administration of cocaine- and amphetamine-regulated transcript (CART) peptide starting from day 3 poststroke for enhancing the functional recovery of injured brain. Adult rats were separated into two groups with similar infarction si...
متن کاملAn NO/GSNO-based Neuroregeneration Strategy for Stroke Therapy
Stroke is associated with significant morbidity and mortality due to the limited neuroregeneration capacity of the injured brain. Other than thrombolysis in the acute phase of the disease by tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), which offers only a short window of treatment (~3 hours), an ideal stroke therapy is not available mainly because of limited understanding of the mechanisms of neuroregen...
متن کاملExtracellular Vesicles Improve Post-Stroke Neuroregeneration and Prevent Postischemic Immunosuppression.
UNLABELLED Although the initial concepts of stem cell therapy aimed at replacing lost tissue, more recent evidence has suggested that stem and progenitor cells alike promote postischemic neurological recovery by secreted factors that restore the injured brain's capacity to reshape. Specifically, extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from stem cells such as exosomes have recently been suggested t...
متن کاملSpecies differences in brain distribution of CART mRNA and CART peptide between prairie and meadow voles.
Reward mechanisms are involved in pair bond formation in monogamous prairie voles. Given the potential role of CART (cocaine- and amphetamine-regulated transcript) in reward, and its possible role as a third neurohypophysial hormone, we examined the brain distribution of CART mRNA and peptide in monogamous prairie voles compared to congener promiscuous meadow voles. Large species differences in...
متن کاملNeuroregeneration in neurodegenerative disorders
BACKGROUND Neuroregeneration is a relatively recent concept that includes neurogenesis, neuroplasticity, and neurorestoration--implantation of viable cells as a therapeutical approach. DISCUSSION Neurogenesis and neuroplasticity are impaired in brains of patients suffering from Alzheimer's Disease or Parkinson's Disease and correlate with low endogenous protection, as a result of a diminished...
