Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal adult-onset neurodegenerative disorder. There no cure and current treatments fail to slow the progression of disease. Epigenetic modulation in acetylation state NF-kB RelA histone 3 (H3) protein, involved development neurodegeneration, drugable target for class-I deacetylases (HDAC) inhibitors, entinostat or valproate, AMP-activated kinase (AMPK)-sirtuin 1 pathway activator, resveratrol. In this study, we demonstrated that combination valproate...

Background: fourth generation antipsychotics have been implicated in the blockade of calcium signalling through inhibition dopamine receptive sites on dopaminergic D2 Receptor (D3R). As a result abnormal associated with D2R inhibition, changes occur motor and memory neural axis leading to observed behavioural deficits after prolonged haloperidol. Thus, Vitamin D3 receptor (VD3R), controlling striatum can be targeted relief neurological symptoms haloperidol (-D2R) induced PD. Aim: This study...

Haloperidol-induced dyskinesia has been linked to a reduction in dopamine activity characterized by the inhibition of receptive sites on D2-receptor (D2R). As result D2R inhibition, calcium-linked neural is affected and seen as decline mo-tor-cognitive function after prolonged haloperidol use treatment psychotic disorders. In this study, we have elucidated relationship between haloperidol-induced tardive motor cortex (M1), basal nucleus (CPu), prefrontal (PFC) hippocampus (CA1). Also,...

AbstractThe role of dopaminergic D2 receptor (D2R) autoregulation in dopamine (DA) neurotransmission cannot be overemphasized cause and progression disorders associated with complex behaviors. Although previous studies have shown that D2R is structurally physiologically linked calcium/calmodulin-dependent kinase II (CaMKIIα), however, the calmodulin CaMKIIα regulation remains elusive. In this study, using structural biology modeling softwares (iGEMDOCK CueMol), we interaction between D2R,...

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disorder involving motor neuron (MN) loss in the cortex, brainstem and spinal cord leading to progressive paralysis death. Due pathogenetic complexity, there are no effective therapies available. In this context use of mesenchymal stem cells their vesicular counterpart an emerging therapeutic strategy counteract neurodegeneration. The extracellular vesicles derived from adipose (ASC-EVs) recapitulate ameliorate neuroprotective effect...

Abstract The mechanisms underlying the earlier onset and male predominance of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), most common form human motoneuron disease, are poorly understood. Here we show that gut microbiota protects against TDP43 toxicity contributes to sexual dimorphism in mice expressing a mutant (A315T) linked ALS. raised under germ-free conditions, or treated with antibiotics deplete microbiota, develop disease no sex differences lifespan. Behavioral histopathological analyses...

The effect of haloperidol on neonatal dopaminergic neurotransmission in the hippocampus postnatal day 20 rats (P.20) was investigated this study. Haloperidol blocked dopamine receptors (D2R) and inhibited D2R membrane neonate neurons. For study 0.5 ml (20 mg/kg) administered to pregnant female animals intraperitoneally a week before delivery. At P.20, 5 control treated were taken behavioral studies room for Y maze Novel object recognition test, which done 7 am morning mating....

Abstract Increased exploitation of minerals has led to pollution confined environments as documented in Nigeria Niger Delta. Information on the effects brain such exposure is limited. Due its exploratory activities, African giant rat ( Cricetomys gambianus ) (AGR) provides a unique model for neuroecotoxicological research determine levels animal and human different pollutants. This study aims unravel neuropathological features AGR sampled from three agro-ecological zones Nigeria. Fifteen...
