Background and aims: We have recently shown that Dextromethorphan is neuroprotective against excitotoxic and hyperoxic-induced brain injury. Beside its antagonistic effect on the NMDA [N-methyl-D ...

We believe it is mediated by excitotoxic cell death resulting from abnormalities in excitatory glutamatergic signal transduction pathways, including glutamate transporters and glutamate receptors as ...

Wong et al. (2019) used a sensory preconditioning protocol to examine how sensory and fear memories are integrated in the rat medial temporal lobe. In this protocol, rats integrate a sound-light ...

This manuscript describes the impact of modulating signaling by a key regulatory enzyme, Dual Leucine Zipper Kinase (DLK), on hippocampal neurons. The results are interesting and will be important for ...

In phase 2, however, these mechanisms break down, and there is an increasing risk of cerebral damage as the status progresses. The cerebral damage in status is caused by systemic and metabolic ...
