Protection and repair of the nigrostriatal pathway with stem-cell-derived carotid body glomus cell transplants in chronic MPTP Parkinsonian model
(MDPI, 2023-03-14)
Antiparkinsonian carotid body (CB) cell therapy has been proven to be effective in rodent and nonhuman primate models of Parkinson’s disease (PD), exerting trophic protection and restoration of the dopaminergic nigrostriatal ...

Rat Adrenal Chromaffin Cells Are Neonatal CO2 Sensors
(2005)
We studied the participation of adrenal medulla (AM) chromaffin cells in hypercapnic chemotransduction. Using amperometric recordings, we measured catecholamine (CAT) secretion from cells inAMslices of neonatal and adult ...

Combined effects of aquaporin-4 and hypoxia produce age-related hydrocephalus
(Elsevier, 2018)
Aquaporin-4, present in ependymal cells, in glia limiting and abundantly in pericapillary astrocyte foot pro cesses, and aquaporin-1, expressed in choroid plexus epithelial cells, play an important role in cerebrospinal fluid ...

Thyrotropin-releasing-hormone (TRH) and its physiological metabolite TRH-OH inhibit Na+ channel activity in mammalian septal neurons
(1990)
The interaction of thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) and its physiological metabolite TRH-OH with Na+ channels was studied in enzymatically dissociated guinea pig septal neurons by using the whole-cell variant of the ...

Full protection from SARS-CoV-2 brain infection and damage in susceptible transgenic mice conferred by MVA-CoV2-S vaccine candidate
(Nature Publishing Group, 2023)
Vaccines against SARS-CoV-2 have been shown to be safe and effective but their protective efficacy against infection in the brain is yet unclear. Here, in the susceptible transgenic K18-hACE2 mouse model of severe coronavirus ...

Parkinson’s disease patient-specific neuronal networks carrying the LRRK2 G2019S mutation unveil early functional alterations that predate neurodegeneration
(Springer Nature, 2021)
A deeper understanding of early disease mechanisms occurring in Parkinson’s disease (PD) is needed to reveal restorative targets. Here we report that human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived dopaminergic neurons ...

Trophic restoration of the nigrostriatal dopaminergic pathway in long-term carotid body-grafted parkinsonian rats
(2003)
We studied the mechanisms underlying long-term functional recovery of hemiparkinsonian rats grafted intrastriatally with carotid body (CB) cell aggregates. Amelioration of their motor syndrome is a result of the trophic ...

Selective Glial Cell Line-Derived Neurotrophic Factor Production in Adult Dopaminergic Carotid Body Cells In Situ and after Intrastriatal Transplantation
(2005)
Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) exerts a notable protective effect on dopaminergic neurons in rodent and primate models of Parkinson’s disease (PD). The clinical applicability of this therapy is, however, ...
