Neuroprotective effect of topiramate against 6-hydroxydopamine-induced cell death in Parkinson's disease cell mode

Introduction: Parkinson's disease (PD) is a common neurodegenerative disorder characterized by progressive neuronal dysfunction. Growing evidence has shown that oxidative stress plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease. Correspondingly, the current study evaluated the protective effect of topiramate in 6-hydroxydopamine induced oxidative stress and apoptosis in PC12 cells...

SK2 channels are neuroprotective for ischemia-induced neuronal cell death.

In mouse hippocampal CA1 pyramidal neurons, the activity of synaptic small-conductance Ca(2+)-activated K(+) channels type 2 (SK2 channels) provides a negative feedback on N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs), reestablishing Mg(2+) block that reduces Ca(2+) influx. The well-established role of NMDARs in ischemia-induced excitotoxicity led us to test the neuroprotective effect of modulating S...

Neuroprotective role of a proline-rich Akt substrate in apoptotic neuronal cell death after stroke: relationships with nerve growth factor.

The Akt signaling pathway contributes to regulation of apoptosis after a variety of cell death stimuli. A novel proline-rich Akt substrate (PRAS) was recently detected and found to be involved in apoptosis. In our study, Akt activation was modulated by growth factors, and treatment with nerve growth factor (NGF) reduced apoptotic cell death after ischemic injury. However, the role of the PRAS p...

Humanin is a novel neuroprotective agent against stroke.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Humanin (HN) is a 24-amino acid peptide best known for its ability to protect neurons from damage caused by Alzheimer disease-related proteins. This study examines the neuroprotective effects of HNG (a potent form of HN) on focal cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury in mice. METHODS Mice underwent middle cerebral artery occlusion for 75 minutes followed by 24-hour reper...

nerve growth factor prevents demyelination, cell death and progression of the disease in experimental allergic encephalomyelitis

experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (eae), a demyelinating disease induced in the animals parallels multiple sclerosis in human in several aspects, provides a useful model to investigate multiple sclerosis. in this study, we have therefore used this model to study functions of nerve growth factor (ngf) in eae. ngf with considerable effects on neuron survival, proliferation and differentiati...
