Abstract
Our objective was to review established markers versus novel urine and serum biomarkers of AKI in humans, which have progressed to clinical phase with regard to their diagnostic and prognostic value.
A review was performed on the basis of literature search of renal failure, acute kid...

Abstract
We also found associations between CH and NSE levels in CSF of patients with severe TBI. Our results suggest that there is an association between levels of ICH and CH and these biomarkers when measured before episodes of clinically significant secondary insults. These markers of neuronal cell death...

Abstract
We found that K-252a incubation reduces ACh release (~50%) in a short time (1 h), but the p75(NTR) signaling inhibitor Pep5 does not have this effect. The specificity of the K-252a blocking effect on trkB was confirmed with the anti-trkB antibody 47/trkB, which reduces evoked ACh release, like K-252...

Abstract
We investigated the effect of ES on nerve growth factor (NGF)-induced neuronal differentiation, migration, neuritogenesis, and neurite extension. ES partially inhibited PC12 cell differentiation and cerebellar granule cell migration. In addition, neurite outgrowth was inhibited in a concentration-de...

Abstract
Issues related to the intra-cerebral delivery of glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) have hampered its progression as a neuroprotective therapy for Parkinson's disease. Ex vivo gene therapy, where cells are virally transduced in vitro to produce a specific protein, may circumvent some...

Abstract
We have previously reported that gicerin plays an important role in the development and regeneration as well as in the metastasis of tumors through its adhesive activities, mediating cell-cell and/or cell-extracellular matrix interactions. In this study, we investigated the involvement of gicerin in...

Abstract
We studied the effect of immobilization stress on BDNF and its receptor tyrosine receptor kinase B (TrkB) in rat submandibular glands, and found increased BDNF expression in duct cells under immobilization stress. Upon further investigation on the influence of salivary glands on plasma BDNF using an...

Abstract
In independent studies delirium was associated with higher levels of cortisol, interleukin(IL)s, and S100B. The aim of this study was to simultaneously compare cortisol, IL-6, IL-8, and S100B levels in patients aged 65years and older admitted for hip fracture surgery with and without delirium. Corti...

Abstract
We sought to determine the function of netrin-1 and its receptor UNC5B in ischemia-reperfusion-induced inflammation. Renal ischemia-reperfusion caused a rapid decrease in serum netrin-1 levels. Administration of recombinant netrin-1 before or after renal ischemia-reperfusion reduced kidney injury, a...

Abstract
We discuss the various factors that enhance functional synapse formation in primary and stem cell-derived neuronal cultures. These factors include astrocytes, astrocyte-derived factors, cell adhesion molecules and neurotrophins. We discuss the current literature on studies that have used these facto...

Abstract
The possibility that a combination of neurotrophins induces long-lasting neuroprotection of the cord following spinal cord injury (SCI) was examined in a rat model. The SCI was performed by making a unilateral incision into the right dorsal horn of the T10-11 segments and the animals were allowed to...

Abstract
We examined the temporal profile of S100B release into the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and blood in acute brain injury.In patients treated with ventricular drainage (subarachnoid hemorrhage, SAH, n = 23; traumatic brain injury, TBI, n = 19), we measured S100B levels in the serum and CSF. The Glasgow C...

Abstract
We investigated the effect of PEDF gene loaded in PLGA nanoparticles (PEDF-PLGANPs) on the mouse colon carcinoma cells (CT26s) in vitro and in vivo. Blank PLGANPs (bPLGANPs) showed lower cytotoxicity than PEI to the CT26s. In vitro, PEDF-PLGANPs directly induced CT26 apoptosis and inhibit human umbi...

Abstract
We reported that 20 Hz ES increased the number of regenerated and myelinated axons at 4 and 8 weeks after injury. P0 level in the ES-treated groups, as well as myelin sheath thickness, were enhanced compared with the controls. The earlier peak Par-3 in the ES-treated groups indicated earlier initiat...

Abstract
Circadian disturbances, including a fragmented sleep-wake pattern and sundowning, are commonly reported early in the progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD). These changes are distinctly different from those observed in non-pathological aging. Transgenic models of AD are a promising...

Abstract
We evaluate the theoretical potential of a novel method of drug delivery, discrete controlled release (DCR), to control effective neurotrophin concentration gradients in an isotropic region of neocortex. We do so by constructing computational models of neurotrophin concentration profiles resulting f...

Abstract
Our results showed differential expression of neurotrophin and their associated receptor genes within 1 week after sSPE exposure. Progressive changes in the profile of expressed genes known to be involved in neurogenic signaling pathways were dependent on the sSPE dose. Our results to date suggest t...

Abstract
We interact with the world. The main problem lies in the fact that the critical sensory cells, the auditory neurons and hair cells located in the cochlea are only generated during development and, when damaged, cannot be replaced. The options currently available to treat this condition are very limi...

Abstract
We demonstrate that most of the anti-inflammatory pharmacology of heparin is unrelated to anticoagulant activity. ODSH has low affinity for anti-thrombin III, low anti-Xa, and anti-IIa anticoagulant activities and does not activate Hageman factor (factor XII). Unlike heparin, ODSH does not interact...

Abstract
We found that PC12 (pheochromocytoma) cells expressed SIRT1 in the cytoplasm. Nerve growth factor (NGF)-induced neurite outgrowth of these cells was promoted by activators of SIRT1, while inhibitors of SIRT1 or SIRT1-siRNA significantly inhibited it. The overexpression of a mutant SIRT1 that localis...
