Functions and Dysfunctions of Neuroplastin65 in the Nervous System
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) have essential roles in forming functional networks in the nervous system. CAMs can be classified into several families including immunoglobulin super family (IgSF), cadherin family, integrins and selections [1]. Neuroplastins are transmembrane glycoprotein’s that belong to IgSF. Neuroplastin65 (NP65) and neuroplastin55 (NP55) are produced by NPTN gene by alternative splicing [2]. NP55 is widely distributed in various tissues. However, NP65 is restrictively expressed in the nervous system.

متن کاملAn Overview of the Effects of Melatonin on Nervous System Diseases
Introduction: Melatonin is a hormone secreted from the pineal gland and plays an important role in regulating the brain functions. This hormone with antioxidant activity supports the body against internal and external damaging factors. Melatonin reduces the production of free radicals by preserving mitochondrial homeostasis, and contributes to ATP synthesis in mitochondria. Reduction of melaton...
