Journal ArticleDOI
Nitric oxide and GABAA receptor function in the rat cerebral cortex and cerebellar granule cells
TL;DR: It appears that this effect in these cells involves nitric oxide formation, cyclic GMP accumulation and protein kinase G-catalysed phosphorylation of GABAA receptor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Regulation of GABAA receptor in cerebellar granule cells in culture : differential involvement of kinase activities
TL;DR: The data indicate that different protein kinase activities modulate the functional state of the GABAA receptors on granule cells from the rat cerebellum, and this "run-down" phenomenon can be completely prevented by adding adenosine-5'-triphosphate + Mg2+ in the pipette solution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Role of creatine and phosphocreatine in neuronal protection from anoxic and ischemic damage.
Maurizio Balestrino,M. Lensman,Monica Parodi,Luisa Perasso,Renata Rebaudo,R. Melani,S Polenov,Aroldo Cupello +7 more
TL;DR: Preliminary data show that creatine pretreatment decreases ischemic damage in vivo and causes an increase of cerebral phosphocreatine that has been shown to be of therapeutic value in vitro.
Journal ArticleDOI
Kinetics of creatine in blood and brain after intraperitoneal injection in the rat.
Luisa Perasso,Aroldo Cupello,Gian Luigi Lunardi,Cristina Principato,Carlo Gandolfo,Maurizio Balestrino +5 more
TL;DR: Although the data clearly show some passage of serum creatine into the brain, other strategies are needed to improve passage of creatine across the blood-brain barrier in a way that it may be suitable to treat acute conditions like stroke.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modulation by nitric oxide of rat brain GABAA receptors.
TL;DR: The effect of nitric oxide (NO) on the function of GABAA receptors was studied in two different rat brain neuron populations and indicates that NO produced by endogenous NOS can inhibit GAB AA receptor function in cerebellar granule cells.
