NMDA receptor (NMDAR) is known for its ionotropic function. But recent evidence suggests that NMDAR also has a non-ionotropic property. To determine the role of non-ionotropic activity of NMDARs in clinical relevant conditions, we tested the effect of glycine, a co-agonist of NMDARs, in rat middle
To investigate the neuroprotective effect of L-serine and its underlying mechanisms, focal cerebral ischemia was induced in rats by occlusion of middle cerebral artery (MCAO) with a suture, and reperfusion was given by filament withdrawal 2 hr later. Meanwhile, rat hippocampal neurons were primarily
Both in vitro and in vivo experiments have implicated extracellular glycine in the pathogenesis of ischemic brain damage. Recently, halogenated derivatives of quinoxaline-2,3-dione have been synthesized that possess bioavailability when parenterally administered and minimal psychotomimetic
Ershi-wei Chenxiang pills (ECP) or Aga Nixiu wan (ཨ་གར་ཉི་ཤུ།), composed of 20 Tibetan medicines, has the effect of promoting blood circulation to remove blood stasis. As a common and frequent prescription used by traditional Tibetan medicine in clinical treatment of Longzhibu disease The compound 5-(4-chlorophenyl)-2,4-dihydro-4-ethyl-3H-1,2,4-triazol-3-one (MDL 27,192) was evaluated in a variety of rodent models to assess its anticonvulsant profile and its potential neuroprotective activity. MDL 27,192 demonstrated anticonvulsant activity in a wide range of epilepsy models that
The exact effect of glycine pre-treatment on brain ischemic tolerance (IT) remains quite controversial. The objective of this study was to investigate the potential effects of glycine on IT. We used rat models of both in vitro ischemia (oxygen and glucose deprivation) and in vivo ischemia (transient
The neuroprotective activity of ACEA 1021 (5-nitro-6,7-dichloro-1,4-dihydro-2,3-quinoxalinedione; licostinel), a selective antagonist at the strychnine-insensitive glycine site associated with the NMDA receptor complex, has been investigated in various models of focal cerebral ischemia. In
Remote ischaemic conditioning (RIC) releases a humoural factor able to exert cross-species cardioprotection when plasma dialysate is applied to isolated hearts. However, the exact chemical nature of this factor is currently unknown.
RIC (4 × 5min femoral occlusion/5min reperfusion) was applied to 10
OBJECTIVE
Glycine is a strychnine-sensitive inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system (CNS), especially in the spinal cord, brainstem, and retina. The objective of the present study was to investigate the potential neuroprotective effects of GlyT1 inhibitor N
To investigate the neuroprotective effect of taurine and the involved mechanisms, middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) was induced with suture for 2h in rat, and the brain tissue was then reperfused. The infarct volume and cerebral damage area were measured, respectively, with
