An Increase in Synaptic NMDA Receptors in the Insular Cortex Contributes to Neuropathic Pain

TL;DR: It is found that in a mouse model in which peripheral nerve injury leads to the development of neuropathic pain, the insular cortex showed changes in synaptic plasticity, which were associated with a long-term increase in the amount of synaptic N-methyl-d-aspartate receptors, but not that of extrasynaptic NMDARs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neuronal and microglial mechanisms for neuropathic pain in the spinal dorsal horn and anterior cingulate cortex.

TL;DR: Understanding a possible connection between the SDH and ACC, including a neuron–microglia interaction, may provide insights into the mechanisms used to amplify pain signals related to neuropathic pain and clues to aid the development of new therapeutic agents for the management of chronic pain.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sirt3 confers protection against neuronal ischemia by inducing autophagy: Involvement of the AMPK-mTOR pathway.

TL;DR: Findings demonstrate that Sirt3 protects against OGD insult by inducing autophagy through regulation of the AMPK‐mTOR pathway and that Sirts3 may have therapeutic value for protecting neurons from cerebral ischemia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sirt1-Sirt3 axis regulates human blood-brain barrier permeability in response to ischemia.

TL;DR: Findings demonstrate that the Sirt1-Sirt3 axis might act as an important modulator in BBB physiology, and could be a therapeutic target for ischemic stroke via regulating mitochondrial ROS generation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sirt3 Protects Cortical Neurons against Oxidative Stress via Regulating Mitochondrial Ca2+ and Mitochondrial Biogenesis

TL;DR: Results suggest that Sirt3 acts as a prosurvival factor playing an essential role to protect cortical neurons under H2O2 induced oxidative stress, possibly through regulating mitochondrial Ca2+ homeostasis and mitochondrial biogenesis.
