Minocycline, a tetracycline derivative, is neuroprotective against excitotoxicity by inhibiting activation and proliferation of microglia.

TL;DR: The findings indicate that the proliferation and activation of microglia contributes to excitotoxicity, which is inhibited by minocycline, an antibiotic used in severe human infections.
Journal ArticleDOI

Expression and regulation of cyclooxygenase-2 in rat microglia

TL;DR: The results suggest that microglia may represent an important source of prostanoids in the brain, thus reinforcing their prominent role in cerebral inflammatory processes.
Journal ArticleDOI
