Journal ArticleDOI
Lactate as a Metabolite and a Regulator in the Central Nervous System.
TL;DR: This review summarizes what is known on lactate, discussing the roles that have been attributed to this molecule over time and whether it can be a beneficial molecule produced during exercise, and offer neuroprotection.
Journal ArticleDOI
Physical Activity and Brain Health
TL;DR: The potential mechanisms underlying the effects of PA on brain health are discussed, focusing on hormones, neurotrophins, and neurotransmitters, the release of which is modulated by PA, as well as on the intra- and extra-cellular pathways that regulate the expression of some of the genes involved.
Journal ArticleDOI
Regulation of mRNA transport, localization and translation in the nervous system of mammals (Review)
TL;DR: The role of RBPs in neuronal development and plasticity, as well as possible connections between ncRNAs and RBPs, are focused on.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aquaporins and Brain Tumors
Rosario Maugeri,Gabriella Schiera,Carlo Maria Di Liegro,A. Fricano,Domenico Gerardo Iacopino,Italia Di Liegro +5 more
TL;DR: The possibility that AQPs, together with other cancer promoting factors, can be exchanged among brain cells via extracellular vesicles (EVs), and the possible role of these molecules as both diagnostic biomarkers of cancer progression, and therapeutic targets is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Extracellular Membrane Vesicles as Vehicles for Brain Cell-to-Cell Interactions in Physiological as well as Pathological Conditions.
TL;DR: Possible roles of EVs in brain physiological functions are summarized and their involvement in the horizontal spreading, from cell to cell, of both cancer and neurodegenerative pathologies is discussed.
