Review ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Etiological Role of Microglia in Autism Spectrum Disorder: A Possible Route for Early InterventionRyan Slovak, Nitya G. ChakrabortyAutism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a dreaded diagnosis. The treatment options are sparse and our knowledge of its etiology is woefully lacking. The purpose of this review is to outline a unifying pathway for the pathogenesis of Autism Spectrum Disorder and to describe how this sequence could be exploited to offer early intervention to patients at high risk of developing … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 24 Jun 2017 · 7,324 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsProduction and Roles of Glial Tissue Inhibitor of Metalloproteinases-1 in Human Immunodeficiency Virus-1-Associated Dementia Neuroinflammation: A ReviewC. Chao, A. GhorpadeProblem statement: Tissue Inhibitor of Metalloproteinases-1 (TIMP-1) and its cognate targets, the Matrix Metalloproteinases (MMPs), were differentially expressed in human brain samples with or without HIV-1 infection or HIV-1 Encephalitis (HIVE). Approach: A through literature review demonstrated that cell culture models of Central Nervous System (CNS) cell types had been used to illustrate the intricate temporal patterns of TIMP-1/MMP expression, … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 6,953 accessesView PDFCite
Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the abstractThe Anti-Nociceptive/Anti-Inflammatory Actions of Botulinum Toxin A for the Treatment of Chronic Pain: A Literature ReviewRacha Hajj, Camille HaddadThe aim of this article is to describe the new actions of botulinum toxin A for chronic pain treatment. BT/A inhibits the exocytosis of synaptic vesicles containing the pain mediators neurotransmitters, reduces the post traumatic trigeminal neuralgia pain, inhibits the release of microglia derived TNF-α as well as other pro inflammatory cytokines, viable treatment option in the case of patients … …Current Research in Dentistry, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 10 Aug 2021 · 7,772 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCocaine: A Catalyst for Human Immunodeficiency Virus-Associated DementiaNavneet K. Dhillon, Milind Gadgil, Andy Rahardja et al.Injection drug use has been recognized as a major risk factor for AIDS from the outset of the epidemic. Cocaine, one of the most widely abused drugs in the United States can both impair the functions of macrophages and CD4+ lymphocytes and also activate HIV-1 expression in these cells. Cocaine is a multifactorial agent that acts globally to impair the … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,587 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBridging from Cells to Cognition in Autism Pathophysiology: Biological Pathways to Defective Brain Function and PlasticityMatthew P. Anderson, Brian S. Hooker, Martha R. HerbertWe review evidence to support a model where the disease process underlying autism may begin when an in utero or early postnatal environmental, infectious, seizure, or autoimmune insult triggers an immune response that increases reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in the brain that leads to DNA damage (nuclear and mitochondrial) and metabolic enzyme blockade and that these inflammatory and oxidative … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 17,455 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Rodent Model of Autism: Intraventricular Infusions of Propionic Acid Increase Locomotor Activity and Induce Neuroinflammation and Oxidative Stress in Discrete Regions of Adult Rat BrainDerrick F. MacFabe, Karina Rodríguez-Capote, Jennifer E. Hoffman et al.Innate neuroinflammatory changes, increased oxidative stress and disorders of glutathione metabolism may be involved in the pathophysiology of autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Propionic acid (PPA) is a dietary and gut bacterial short chain fatty acid which can produce brain and behavioral changes reminiscent of ASD following intraventricular infusion in rats. Adult Long-Evans rats were given intraventricular infusions of either PPA … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 12,613 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPeripheral Blood Leukocyte Production of BDNF following Mitogen Stimulation in Early Onset and Regressive AutismAmanda Enstrom, Charity Onore, Angela Tarver et al.Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is critical for neuronal differentiation and synaptic development. BDNF is also implicated in the development of psychological disorders including depression, bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. Previously, elevated BDNF levels were observed in neonatal blood samples from infants who were later diagnosed with autism when compared with children who developed normally, suggesting that BDNF may be involved in … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 8,525 accessesView PDFCite
