Journal ArticleDOI

NGF and bFGF protect rat hippocampal and human cortical neurons against hypoglycemic damage by stabilizing calcium homeostasis

TL;DR: Findings indicate that growth factors can stabilize neuronal calcium homeostasis in central neurons and thereby protect them against environmental insults.
Journal ArticleDOI

The neuroprotective properties of calorie restriction, the ketogenic diet, and ketone bodies.

TL;DR: The present review summarizes the neuroprotective effects of calorie restriction, of the ketogenic diet and of ketone bodies, and compares their putative mechanisms of action.
Journal ArticleDOI

Curcumin requires tumor necrosis factor α signaling to alleviate cognitive impairment elicited by lipopolysaccharide.

TL;DR: Evidence is provided that curcumin ameliorates cognitive deficits associated with activation of the innate immune response by mechanisms requiring functional tumor necrosis factor α receptor 2 (TNFR2) signaling, and the possibility that therapeutic approaches against cognitive decline designed to selectively enhance TNFR2 signaling are likely to be more beneficial than the use of anti-inflammatory drugs per se is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI

Increased vulnerability of hippocampal neurons to excitotoxic necrosis in presenilin-1 mutant knock-in mice.

TL;DR: A direct link between a genetic defect that causes AD and excitotoxic neuronal degeneration is established, and new avenues for therapeutic intervention in AD patients are indicated.
