In the present investigation, we studied whether neurotrophin-3 (NT-3) contributes to the rescue of axotomized Clarke's nucleus (CN) neurons in adult rats. A significant (24%) loss of CN neurons occurred at L-1 ipsilateral to T-8 hemisection by 14 days, which reached 31% at 2 months and then stabili

## Abstract A dimer of the basic region leucine zipper proteins cβJun and cβFos constitutes the classical activator proteinβ1 (APβ1) transcription factor. cβJun is thought to play essential roles in many important cellular pathways, including the control of proliferation and cell death. To investig
## Abstract Secreted phospholipases A~2~ (sPLA~2~s) modulate neuronal survival and neurotransmitter release. Here we show that sPLA~2~ (group III) synergistically increases glutamateβinduced cell death and intracellular calcium ([Ca^2+^]~i~) in cultured primary cortical and hippocampal neurons. Whe
Stimulation of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) or extracellular signal regulated protein kinases (ERKs) after exposure of mammalian cells to ultraviolet (UV) and X-irradiation occurs through activation of receptor tyrosine kinases via Ras/Raf/Mek/ERKs cascade. This activation of MAPKs is p
## Abstract The brainβderived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) plays a critical role in pain hypersensitivity. BDNF is the ligand of P2X4 receptors (P2X4R) in the microglia. The causative factors involving the P2X4R over expression in the microglia remains unclear. Mast cell activation has a close relati
