Marijuana: Neurotoxic or Neuroprotective?
Chronic marijuana intake was known to induce morphological changes to the brain impairing memory and learning ability. However, several studies demonstrated the protective effect of marijuana post-brain traumas. This article reviews studies that strengthen our horizon to understand the effects of marijuana smoking in brain. This review predicts that optimum use of marijuana or pure marijuana co...

متن کاملZinc supplementation: neuroprotective or neurotoxic?
While zinc is essential for normal brain function and repair, recent work has implicated this trace element in the neuronal damage and death that follow traumatic brain injury, stroke, and seizure. Therefore, the development of new zinc-based therapeutic strategies will need to consider the emerging roles of zinc in the central nervous system.
متن کاملAre volatile anesthetics neuroprotective or neurotoxic?
Volatile anesthetics are one class of the most commonly used drugs. However, the mechanisms for these drugs to induce anesthesia are not fully understood and have been under intensive investigation. Two other effects of these anesthetics on the central nervous system, volatile anesthetics-induced neuroprotection and neurotoxicity, currently are hot research fields. Although data from animal stu...
متن کاملNeuroprotective actions of 2,4-dinitrophenol: Friend or foe?
2,4-dinitrophenol (DNP) has long been known to be toxic at high concentrations, an effect related to uncoupling of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation. Five years ago, however, we reported that low concentrations of DNP protect neurons against the toxicity of the amyloid-β peptide. Since then, a number of other studies have provided evidence of beneficial actions of DNP (at low concentratio...
