Abstract Designer drug mixtures popularized as "bath salts" often contain the synthetic cathinones 3,4 methylenedioxypyrovalerone (MDPV), mephedrone, and methylone in various combinations. However, most preclinical investigations have only assessed the effects of individual bath salt constituents, and little is known about whether co-exposure to MDPV, mephedrone, and methylone produces significant neuropharmacological interactions. This study evaluated and compared how MDPV,...
Abstract Stroke is accompanied by severe inflammation in the brain. The role of mature brain-derived neurotrophic factor (mBDNF) in ischemic stroke has received intensive attention, but the function of its precursor proBDNF is less understood. Recent studies showed that mBDNF and proBDNF in the ischemic brain are upregulated, but the significance of mBDNF and proBDNF in the lymphocytes in ischemic stroke is not known. Here, we propose that the expression levels of mBDNF and proBDNF...
Abstract Autophagy is an important cellular protein control process, which plays a key role in the regulation of cell homeostasis and pathogenesis of many human diseases including neurodegenerative diseases. Reduced autophagic activity and abnormal protein aggregation are common features of neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and Huntington's disease. Therefore, pharmacological regulation of overall autophagy...
