Journal ArticleDOI
Extracellular levels of adenosine and its metabolites in the striatum of awake rats: inhibition of uptake and metabolism
TL;DR: The present results show that the microdialysis technique can be used to determine levels of purines in the extracellular fluid of defined brain regions in awake animals and that adenosine levels can be altered in vivo by inhibitors of adenoine transport and adenosines deaminase.
Journal ArticleDOI
Glucose pathways adaptation supports acquisition of activated microglia phenotype.
TL;DR: The results show that microglial activation triggers a metabolic reprogramming based on an increased glucose uptake and a strengthening of anaerobic glycolysis, as well as of the pentose pathway oxidative branch, while retaining the mitochondrial activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biphasic and Region-Specific MAO-B Response to Aging in Normal Human Brain
TL;DR: No clear age-related changes in MAO-A were observed, indicating an independent regulation of the two isoenzymes, also suggested by the cross-correlation analysis of these data.
Journal ArticleDOI
Differential age-related changes of MAO-A and MAO-B in mouse brain and peripheral organs
TL;DR: In this paper, the distribution and age-related changes of MAO in BL/C57 mouse were studied by quantitative enzyme radioautography with [3H]Ro41-1049 and [3 H]Ro19-6327.
Journal ArticleDOI
ATP-dependent potassium channel blockade strengthens microglial neuroprotection after hypoxia–ischemia in rats

TL;DR: Evidence for the key role of K(ATP) channels in the control ofmicroglial reactivity are consistent with a microglial effect of glibenclamide into the ischemic brain and suggest a neuroprotective role of microglia in the early stages of stroke.
