Promoting Neuroprotection: Lessons Learned from Eae*
Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) is the primary animal model used for studying multiple sclerosis (MS). Here we discuss 3 examples of molecular targets identified through studies of EAE and comment on their application in the treatment of MS. The anti-very late antigen 4 antibody, natalizumab, has shown marked therapeutic effects through the blockade of T-cell interactions with v...
متن کاملClinical perspectives: neuroprotection lessons from hypoxia-tolerant organisms.
An effective treatment for brain ischemia is a pressing medical need. Research on brain ischemia has largely focused on understanding the mechanisms of neuron death as a way of identifying targets for therapy. An attractive alternative approach is to identify the survival strategies of hypoxia-tolerant neurons. The adaptation of vertebrate neurons to hypoxia occurs in at least three major ways:...
متن کاملNerve agents: Lessons from the Iranian experiences
On September 22, 1980 Iraqis attacked Iran's air bases and simultaneously entered Iran with six army divisions on three fronts and occupied a vast part of Iranian territories. At that time, Iraqis did not have chemical warfare. But in time, they began to develop an intensive research program to produce and store chemical weapons and used the war fields to test and perfect their chemical warfare...
متن کاملPost-Pandemic Housing Architecture: Lessons from Covid19
Like other crises, the coronavirus epidemic has had a significant impact on our lives. As a result, the built environment has changed in order to adapt to new conditions and needs. Since Covid19 will not be the first and possibly the last epidemic, housing design must also adapt to the new reality. At present, the spatial properties of housing are influenced by strategies of social distance, qu...
متن کاملGlycogen synthase kinase-3 in neurodegeneration and neuroprotection: lessons from lithium.
For over fifty years lithium has been a fundamental component of therapy for patients with bipolar disorders. Lithium has been considered recently for its potential to alleviate neuronal loss and other neurodegeneration processes. For instance, lithium reduces the severity of some behavioral complications of Alzheimer's disease (AD). And there are growing indications that lithium may be of bene...
