The Chronological Characteristics of SOD1 Activity and Inflammatory Response in the Hippocampi of STZ-Induced Type 1 Diabetic Rats
Because it appears that oxidative stress and inflammation are implicated with disease pathogenesis in the diabetic brain, many researchers have used streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic animals to study super...

Synergistic Effects of Sodium Butyrate, a Histone Deacetylase Inhibitor, on Increase of Neurogenesis Induced by Pyridoxine and Increase of Neural Proliferation in the Mouse Dentate Gyrus
We previously observed that pyridoxine (vitamin B6) significantly increased cell proliferation and neuroblast differentiation without any neuronal damage in the hippocampus. In this study, we investigated the eff...

Reduced Cell Proliferation and Neuroblast Differentiation in the Dentate Gyrus of High Fat Diet-Fed Mice are Ameliorated by Metformin and Glimepiride Treatment
We investigated the effects of a high-fat diet (HFD) and the subsequent treatment of metformin (met) and glimepiride (glim), which are widely prescribed for type 2 diabetes, on cell proliferation and neuroblas...

PEP-1-Frataxin Significantly Increases Cell Proliferation and Neuroblast Differentiation by Reducing Lipid Peroxidation in the Mouse Dentate Gyrus
Frataxin plays important roles in the mitochondrial respiratory chain and in the differentiation of neurons during early development. In this study, we observed the effects of frataxin on cell proliferation an...

Combination Effects of Sodium Butyrate and Pyridoxine Treatment on Cell Proliferation and Neuroblast Differentiation in the Dentate Gyrus of d-Galactose-Induced Aging Model Mice
We previously reported that sodium butyrate (SB), a histone deacetylase inhibitor, robustly increased pyridoxine-induced cell proliferation and neuroblast differentiation in the dentate gyrus of the adult mous...

Hypothyroid States Mitigate the Diabetes-Induced Reduction of Calbindin D-28k, Calretinin, and Parvalbumin Immunoreactivity in Type 2 Diabetic Rats
In this study, we investigated the differences in calbindin D-28k (CB), calretinin, (CR) and parvalbumin (PV) immunoreactivity in the hippocampus of Zucker diabetic fatty (ZDF) rats and Zucker lean control (ZL...

Chronic Effects of Pyridoxine in the Gerbil Hippocampal CA1 Region after Transient Forebrain Ischemia
In a previous study, we reported that the administration of pyridoxine (vitamin B6) to mice for 3 weeks significantly increased cell proliferation and neuroblast differentiation in the dentate gyrus without any n...

Article
Repeated Administration of PEP-1-Cu,Zn-Superoxide Dismutase and PEP-1-Peroxiredoxin-2 to Senescent Mice Induced by d-galactose Improves the Hippocampal Functions
Oxidative stress initiates age-related reduction in hippocampal neurogenesis and the use of antioxidants has been proposed as an effective strategy to prevent or attenuate the reduction of neurogenesis in the ...

Effects of Treadmill Exercise on Neural Stem Cells, Cell Proliferation, and Neuroblast Differentiation in the Subgranular Zone of the Dentate Gyrus in Cyclooxygenase-2 Knockout Mice
Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) function has been implicated in a number of physiological processes, including inflammatory responses, synaptic transmission, and synaptic plasticity in the brain. However, the specifi...

Additive or Synergistic Effects of Aluminum on the Reduction of Neural Stem Cells, Cell Proliferation, and Neuroblast Differentiation in the Dentate Gyrus of High-Fat Diet-Fed Mice
Aluminum is the most plentiful metal on the Earth’s crust, and its usage in cooking utensils, cosmetics, drinking containers, food additives, pharmaceutical products, and building materials provides many oppor...

Tat-DJ-1 Protects Neurons from Ischemic Damage in the Ventral Horn of Rabbit Spinal Cord Via Increasing Antioxidant Levels
The DJ-1 gene is highly conserved in diverse species and DJ-1 is known as an anti-oxidative stress factor. In this study, we investigated the neuroprotective effects of DJ-1 against ischemic damage in the rabb...

Comparison of N-Methyl-d-aspartate Receptor Subunit 1 and 4-Hydroxynonenal in the Hippocampus of Natural and Chemical-Induced Aging Accelerated Mice
In this study, we compared N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor type 1 (NMDAR1) and 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE) in the hippocampus of d-galactose (d-gal)-induced and naturally aging models of mice. These markers represent...

Differential Effects of Low- and High-dose Zinc Supplementation on Synaptic Plasticity and Neurogenesis in the Hippocampus of Control and High-fat Diet-fed Mice
In the present study, we investigated the concentration-dependent effect of zinc (Zn) supplementation on the adult hippocampus in a high-fat diet (HFD)-fed obese mouse model. Four-weeks after HFD- and control ...

Ascorbic Acid Ameliorates Gestational Lead Exposure-Induced Developmental Alteration in GAD67 and c-Kit Expression in the Rat Cerebellar Cortex
In the present study, we investigated the effects of ascorbic acid on lead-exposed develo** cerebellum. Female rats were divided into the following three groups: control (distilled water), lead (0.2% lead ac...

Ultrastructural Changes and Expression of PCNA and RPE65 in Sodium Iodate-Induced Acute Retinal Pigment Epithelium Degeneration Model
Alteration in retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) results in the visual dysfunction and blindness of retinal degenerative diseases. Injection of sodium iodate (NaIO3) generates degeneration of RPE. We analyzed the s...

Ascorbic Acid Attenuates Lead-Induced Alterations in the Synapses in the Develo** Rat Cerebellum
We evaluated the effect of lead (Pb) and ascorbic acid treatment of pregnant female rats on cerebellar development in pups. Pb was administered in drinking water (0.2% Pb acetate), and ascorbic acid (100 mg/kg...
