Gliotoxicity and Glioprotection: the Dual Role of Glial Cells
André Quincozes-Santos,Camila Leite Santos,Rômulo Rodrigo de Souza Almeida,Amanda Albertin Xavier da Silva,Natalie K. Thomaz,Naithan Ludian Fernandes Costa,Fernanda Becker Weber,Izaviany Schmitz,Lara Scopel Medeiros,Lívia Medeiros,Bethina Segabinazzi Dotto,Filipe Renato Pereira Dias,Vanessa Sovrani,Larissa Daniele Bobermin +13 more
TL;DR: A review of types and functions of glial cells and cellular and molecular mechanisms associated with gliotoxicity and glioprotection, potential glio-protective molecules and their mechanisms, as well as gliotherapy can be found in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lipopolysaccharide Induces Gliotoxicity in Hippocampal Astrocytes from Aged Rats: Insights About the Glioprotective Roles of Resveratrol
Larissa Daniele Bobermin,Rômulo Rodrigo de Souza Almeida,Fernanda Becker Weber,Lara Scopel Medeiros,Lívia Medeiros,Angela T. S. Wyse,Carlos Alberto Gonçalves,André Quincozes-Santos +7 more
TL;DR: The data show that resveratrol can prime aged astrocytes against gliotoxic stimuli, contributing to a healthier brain aging and upregulation of sirtuin 1, nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2, and heme oxygenase 1 represent potential molecular mechanisms associated with resver atrol-mediated glioprotection.
Journal ArticleDOI
Glioprotective Effects of Resveratrol Against BMAA-Induced Astroglial Dysfunctions
Filipe Renato Pereira Dias,Rômulo Rodrigo de Souza Almeida,Vanessa Sovrani,Natalie K. Thomaz,Carlos Alberto Gonçalves,André Quincozes-Santos,Larissa Daniele Bobermin +6 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that BMAA directly impacts key astroglial functions, contributing to elucidating the cellular and molecular mechanisms of this toxin in the CNS and reinforcing the glioprotective effects of resveratrol against BMAA-induced astrogLial dysfunctions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Methylmalonic acid induces inflammatory response and redox homeostasis disruption in C6 astroglial cells: potential glioprotective roles of melatonin and resveratrol
Rômulo Rodrigo de Souza Almeida,Larissa Daniele Bobermin,Belisa Parmeggiani,Krista Minéia Wartchow,Diogo O. Souza,Carlos Alberto Gonçalves,Moacir Wajner,Guilhian Leipnitz,André Quincozes-Santos +8 more
TL;DR: The hypothesis that astroglial changes are associated with pathogenesis of methylmalonic acidemia is supported and these cells might be potential targets for preventive/therapeutic strategies by using molecules, such as melatonin and resveratrol, which mediated glioprotection in this inborn error of metabolism.
