Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) are suitable for studying mitochondrial diseases caused by mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations. Here, we generated iPSCs from a patient with mitochondrial myopathy, encephalopathy, lactic acidosis, and stroke...

As a proof of concept that removal of blood amyloid-beta (A beta) can reduce A beta deposition in the brains of patients with Alzheimer's disease, cortices of patients who had undergone hemodialysis (HD), which removes A beta from the blood, were ...

Red ginseng root (Panax Ginseng CA Meyer) has been used clinically by many Asian people for thousands of years without any detrimental effects. One of the major components of Red ginseng root is ginsenoside Rb-1 (gRb1). Previously, we showed that ...
The effects of transient cochlear ischemia on spiral ganglion cells (SGCs) were studied in Mongolian gerbils. Ischemic insult was induced by occluding the bilateral vertebral arteries of gerbils for 15 min. Seven days after ischemia, the percentag...

Ischemic tolerance in the cochlea was investigated in a gerbil model of cochlear ischemia. Transient cochlear ischemia was produced by extracranial occlusion of the bilateral vertebral arteries. The gerbils were divided into two groups; single isc...

Syntaxin1 and synaptotagmin are located in the pre-synaptic terminals and play central roles in Ca(2+)-triggered neurotransmitter release. Because excessive synaptic transmission has been implicated in neuronal cell death after ischemia, we invest...

The differentiation and proliferation of neural stem cells (NSCs) are regulated by a combination of their intrinsic properties (e.g., transcription factors, epigenetic factors, and microRNA regulation) and cell-extrinsic properties from the microe...
