P7C3 Suppresses Neuroinflammation and Protects Retinal Ganglion Cells of Rats from Optic Nerve Crush.
Purpose To determine whether P7C3-A20 can inhibit the phosphorylation of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), depress neuroinflammation, and protect retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) of rats from optic nerve crush (ONC). Methods The left optic nerve was crushed, and 5.0 mg/kg/d of P7C3-A20, 1.0 mg/kg/d of rapamycin, or their vehicle was injected intraperitoneally for 3 consecutive days begin...
متن کاملRetinal Ganglion Cell Loss is Delayed Following Optic Nerve Crush in NLRP3 Knockout Mice
The NLRP3 inflammasome, a sensor for a variety of pathogen- and host-derived threats, consists of the adaptor ASC (Apoptosis-associated Speck-like protein containing a Caspase Activation and Recruitment Domain (CARD)), pro-caspase-1, and NLRP3 (NOD-Like Receptor family Pyrin domain containing 3). NLRP3-induced neuroinflammation is implicated in the pathogenesis and progression of eye diseases, ...
متن کاملOverexpression of Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor Protects Large Retinal Ganglion Cells After Optic Nerve Crush in Mice
Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), a neurotrophin essential for neuron survival and function, plays an important role in neuroprotection during neurodegenerative diseases. In this study, we examined whether a modest increase of retinal BDNF promotes retinal ganglion cell (RGC) survival after acute injury of the optic nerve in mice. We adopted an inducible Cre-recombinase transgenic syste...
متن کاملProtection by an Oral Disubstituted Hydroxylamine Derivative against Loss of Retinal Ganglion Cell Differentiation following Optic Nerve Crush
Thy-1 is a cell surface protein that is expressed during the differentiation of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs). Optic nerve injury induces progressive loss in the number of RGCs expressing Thy-1. The rate of this loss is fastest during the first week after optic nerve injury and slower in subsequent weeks. This study was undertaken to determine whether oral treatment with a water-soluble N-hydro...
متن کاملBrimonidine protects against loss of Thy-1 promoter activation following optic nerve crush
BACKGROUND The loss of RGCs expressing Thy-1 after optic nerve injury has an initial phase of rapid decline followed by a longer phase with slower reduction rate. This study used longitudinal retinal imaging of mice expressing cyan fluorescent protein under control of the Thy-1 promoter (Thy1-CFP mice) to determine how the α2-adrenergic agonist brimonidine influences loss of Thy1 promoter activ...
