Glutamat inducerad skada

glutamat inducerad skada
The Na +-glutamate transporters on neurons and astrocytes can reverse their glutamate transport and start secreting glutamate at a concentration capable of inducing excitotoxicity. This results in a buildup of glutamate and further damaging activation of glutamate receptors. 1 2 Excitotoxicity is a phenomenon that describes the toxic actions of excitatory neurotransmitters, primarily glutamate, where the exacerbated or prolonged activation of glutamate receptors starts a cascade of neurotoxicity that ultimately leads to the loss of neuronal function and cell death. 3 4 ICT treatment significantly reduced glutamate-induced neuronal damage but showed no cytotoxicity in the absence of glutamate. These results suggest that ICT is a potential neuroprotective agent that is capable of ameliorating excitatory toxicity induced by glutamate. 5 We found that glutamate triggers a sustained increase of extracellular ATP levels, which contributes for glutamate-induced hippocampal neuronal death through the activation of P2Y1R. 6 This review provides a summary on the toxicity of monosodium glutamate and the protective effects of natural products against monosodium glutamate -induced toxicity.
