Differential expression of phospholipase D isozymes in the hippocampus following kainic acid-induced seizures.

Only registered users can translate articles

To investigate the pathophysiological role of phospholipase D (PLD)-mediated signaling, changes in the expression of the PLD isozymes PLD1 and PLD2 were investigated in the rat kainic acid (KA) model of human temporal lobe epilepsy. Western blot analysis showed a significant increase in the

Brain levels of N-acylethanolamine phospholipids in mice during pentylenetetrazol-induced seizure.

Only registered users can translate articles

The N-acylethanolamine phospholipids (NAPE) are precursors for N-acylethanolamines (NAE), including anandamide (20:4-NAE), which is a ligand for the cannabinoid receptors. Previously, NAPE were believed to be found only in injured tissue, e.g., after neurodegenerative insults. Neuronal injury may

Evidence that phospholipase D activation prevents group I mGluR-induced persistent prolongation of epileptiform bursts.

Only registered users can translate articles

Selective activation of group I metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) with (S)-3,5-dihydroxyphenylglycine (DHPG) in guinea pig hippocampal slices converts 275- to 475-ms picrotoxin-induced interictal bursts into persistent seizure-length discharges typically over 1 s in duration. Here we report

Biological and structural comparison of recombinant phospholipase D toxins from Loxosceles intermedia (brown spider) venom.

Only registered users can translate articles

The clinical features of brown spider bites are the appearance of necrotic skin lesions, which can also be accompanied by systemic involvement, including weakness, vomiting, fever, convulsions, disseminated intravascular coagulation, intravascular hemolysis and renal disturbances. Severe systemic

Bilobalide, a constituent of Ginkgo biloba, inhibits NMDA-induced phospholipase A2 activation and phospholipid breakdown in rat hippocampus.

Only registered users can translate articles

In rat hippocampal slices superfused with magnesium-free buffer, glutamate (1 mM) caused the release of large amounts of choline due to phospholipid breakdown. This phenomenon was mimicked by N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) in a calcium-sensitive manner and was blocked by NMDA receptor antagonists such

Downregulation of the CB1 cannabinoid receptor and related molecular elements of the endocannabinoid system in epileptic human hippocampus.

Only registered users can translate articles

Endocannabinoid signaling is a key regulator of synaptic neurotransmission throughout the brain. Compelling evidence shows that its perturbation leads to development of epileptic seizures, thus indicating that endocannabinoids play an intrinsic protective role in suppressing pathologic neuronal
