1. Effect of dihydroferulic acid obtained from fermented rice bran extract on neuroprotection and behavioral recovery in an ischemic rat model
Abstract This study aimed to evaluate whether dihydroferulic acid (dFA) promoted the viability of H2O2-treated PC12 cells and functional recovery from ischemic injury. The animals were divided into four groups for the study: (1) the vehicle treated (saline, 1 mL/kg), (2) dFA 5 mg/kg treated, (3) dFA10 mg/kg treated, and (4) dFA 20 mg/kg treated groups. Neuro

2. Pharmacology and toxicology of diphenyl diselenide in several biological models
The pharmacology of synthetic organoselenium compounds indicates that they can be used as antioxidants, enzyme inhibitors, neuroprotectors, anti-tumor and anti-infectious agents, and immunomodulators. In this review, we focus on the effects of diphenyl diselenide (DPDS) in various biological model organisms. DPDS possesses antioxidant activity, confirmed in

3. Estudo dos efeitos comportamentais e neuroquÃmicos da piplartina, alcamida isolada de Piper tuberculatum JACQ., em camundongos / STUDY OF BEHAVIORAL AND NEUROBIOCHEMICAL EFFECTS OF PIPLARTINE, ALCAMIDE ISOLATED FROM PIPER TUBERCULATUM JACQ., IN MICE
Piper tuberculatum Jacq. (pimenta de macaco) à uma Piperaceae muito usada no Nordeste do Brasil como condimento ou remÃdio. A piplartina (PIP), uma alcamida isolada da planta, ainda à pouco estudada e isto incentivou a investigaÃÃo do seu potencial efeito comportamental e neurobioquÃmico. Os resultados mostraram que a PIP (50 e 100 mg/Kg, i.p.) aumento

5. The Nrf2-Antioxidant Response Element Signaling Pathway and Its Activation by Oxidative Stress*
A major mechanism in the cellular defense against oxidative or electrophilic stress is activation of the Nrf2-antioxidant response element signaling pathway, which controls the expression of genes whose protein products are involved in the detoxication and elimination of reactive oxidants and electrophilic agents through conjugative reactions and by enha

6. Oxidative stress in the hippocampus during experimental seizures can be ameliorated with the antioxidant ascorbic acid
Ascorbic acid has many nonenzymatic actions and is a powerful water-soluble antioxidant. It protects low density lipoproteins from oxidation and reduces harmful oxidants in the central nervous system. Pilocarpine-induced seizures have been suggested to be mediated by increases in oxidative stress. Current studies have suggested that antioxidant compounds may

7. Estrogen and Tamoxifen Protect against Mn-Induced Toxicity in Rat Cortical Primary Cultures of Neurons and Astrocytes
Chronic exposure to manganese (Mn) leads to a neurological disorder, manganism, which shares multiple common features with idiopathic Parkinson disease (IPD). 17β-Estradiol (E2) and some selective estrogen receptor modulators, including tamoxifen (TX), afford neuroprotection in various experimental models of neurodegeneration. However, the neuroprotective e

8. Quinol-based cyclic antioxidant mechanism in estrogen neuroprotection
Substantial evidence now exists that intrinsic free-radical scavenging contributes to the receptor-independent neuroprotective effects of estrogens. This activity is inherently associated with the presence of a phenolic A-ring in the steroid. We report a previously unrecognized antioxidant cycle that maintains the “chemical shield” raised by estrogens ag

9. Dehydroascorbic acid, a blood–brain barrier transportable form of vitamin C, mediates potent cerebroprotection in experimental stroke
Neuronal injury in ischemic stroke is partly mediated by cytotoxic reactive oxygen species. Although the antioxidant ascorbic acid (AA) or vitamin C does not penetrate the blood–brain barrier (BBB), its oxidized form, dehydroascorbic acid (DHA), enters the brain by means of facilitative transport. We hypothesized that i.v. DHA would improve outcome af

10. Transcription factor NF-κB is activated in primary neurons by amyloid β peptides and in neurons surrounding early plaques from patients with Alzheimer disease
Amyloid β peptide (Aβ)-containing plaques are a hallmark of Alzheimer disease. Here, we show that the neurotoxic Aβ, a major plaque component, is a potent activator of the transcription factor NF-κB in primary neurons. This activation required reactive oxygen intermediates as messengers because an antioxidant prevented Aβ-induced NF-κB activation. Maxi

11. Microglia Activated with the Toll-Like Receptor 9 Ligand CpG Attenuate Oligomeric Amyloid β Neurotoxicity in in Vitro and in Vivo Models of Alzheimer’s Disease
Soluble oligomeric amyloid β (oAβ) 1-42 causes synaptic dysfunction and neuronal injury in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Although accumulation of microglia around senile plaques is a hallmark of AD pathology, the role of microglia in oAβ1-42 neurotoxicity is not fully understood. Here, we showed that oAβ but not fibrillar Aβ was neurotoxic, and microglia

12. Cannabidiol and (−)Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol are neuroprotective antioxidants
The neuroprotective actions of cannabidiol and other cannabinoids were examined in rat cortical neuron cultures exposed to toxic levels of the excitatory neurotransmitter glutamate. Glutamate toxicity was reduced by both cannabidiol, a nonpsychoactive constituent of marijuana, and the psychotropic cannabinoid (−)Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). Cannabinoids
