Fluorescent Analysis Reveals that Insulin Diminishes Superoxide Increase in Neurons Induced with Toxic Glutamate Treatment
2021-08-02
Abstract excerpt
Glutamate excitotoxicity is implicated in the pathogenesis of many disorders, including stroke, traumatic brain injury, and Alzheimer’s disease, for which central insulin resistance is a comorbid condition. Massive glutamate release primarily through ionotropic N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) causes a sustained rise in [Ca2+]i, followed by mitochondrial depolarization and an increase in intracellular...
