Journal ArticleDOI

Neurotoxicity associated with dual actions of homocysteine at the N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor

TL;DR: It is shown that homocysteine acts as an agonist at the glutamate binding site of the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor, but also as a partial antagonist of the glycine coagonist site, under pathological conditions in which glycine levels in the nervous system are elevated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Role of oxidative stress in epileptic seizures

TL;DR: This review highlights pharmacological mechanisms associated with oxidative stress in epileptic seizures and the potential for neuroprotection in epilepsy that targets oxidative stress and is supported by effective antioxidant treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Taxonomy of Dirty Data

TL;DR: A comprehensive classification of dirty data is developed for use as a framework for understanding how dirty data arise, manifest themselves, and may be cleansed to ensure proper construction of data warehouses and accurate data analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

α-Synuclein Activates Microglia by Inducing the Expressions of Matrix Metalloproteinases and the Subsequent Activation of Protease-Activated Receptor-1

TL;DR: MMPs secreted by α-synuclein–stimulated microglia activate PAR-1 and amplify microglial inflammatory signals in an autocrine or paracrine manner and suggest that modulation of the activities of MMPs and/orPAR-1 may provide a new therapeutic strategy for Parkinson’s disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Attenuation of NMDA Receptor Activity and Neurotoxicity by Nitroxyl Anion, NO−

TL;DR: It is shown that NO- -unlike NO*, but reminiscent of NO+ transfer (or S-nitrosylation)- -reacts mainly with Cys-399 in the NR2A subunit of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor to curtail excessive Ca2+ influx and thus provide neuroprotection from excitotoxic insults.
