Qun Wang,Jianfeng Xu,George E. Rottinghaus,Agnes Simonyi,Dennis B. Lubahn,Grace Y. Sun,Albert Y. Sun +6 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated for the first time that resveratrol, a polyphenolic antioxidant, can cross the blood-brain barrier and exert protective effects against cerebral ischemic injury.
Journal ArticleDOI
The "French Paradox" and beyond: neuroprotective effects of polyphenols
TL;DR: The studies with animal models have provided information clearly indicating the ability of grape polyphenols to ameliorate neuronal damages due to chronic ethanol consumption, and the need to extend research beyond the "French Paradox" towards better understanding molecular mechanisms of action of polyphenolic compounds and their application to human health.
Journal ArticleDOI
Kainic acid-mediated excitotoxicity as a model for neurodegeneration.
TL;DR: KA-induced excitotoxicity can be used as a model for elucidating mechanisms underlying oxidative stress and inflammation in neurodegenerative diseases and possible intervention by anti-oxidants are suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI
Oxidative and Inflammatory Pathways in Parkinson's Disease
TL;DR: Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most prevalent age-related neurodegenerative disease with physiological manifestations including tremors, bradykinesia, abnormal postural reflexes, rigidity and akinesia and pathological landmarks showing losses of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra.
Journal ArticleDOI
Resveratrol as a Therapeutic Agent for Neurodegenerative Diseases
TL;DR: The goal here is to provide a better understanding of the mode of action of resveratrol and its possible use as a potential therapeutic agent to ameliorate stroke damage as well as other age-related neurodegenerative disorders.
