    Notizen: Abstract: Tumor necrosis factor-α is a pluripotent cytokine that is reportedly mitogenic to astrocytes. We examined expression of the astrocyte intermediate filament component glial fibrillary acidic protein in astrocyte cultures and the U373 glioblastoma cell line after treatment with tumor necrosis factor-α. Treatment with tumor necrosis factor-α for 72 h resulted in a decrease in content of glial fibrillary acidic protein and its encoding mRNA. At the same time, tumor necrosis factor-α treatment increased the expression of the cytokine interleukin-6 by astrocytes. The decrease in glial fibrillary acidic protein expression was greater when cells were subconfluent than when they were confluent. Thymidine uptake studies demonstrated that U373 cells proliferated in response to tumor necrosis factor-α, but primary neonatal astrocytes did not. However, in both U373 cells and primary astrocytes tumor necrosis factor-α induced an increase in total cellular protein content. Treatment of astrocytes and U373 cells for 72 h with the mitogenic cytokine basic fibroblast growth factor also induced a decrease in glial fibrillary acidic protein content and an increase in total protein level, demonstrating that this effect is not specific for tumor necrosis factor-α. The decrease in content of glial fibrillary acidic protein detected after tumor necrosis factor-α treatment is most likely due to dilution by other proteins that are synthesized rapidly in response to cytokine stimulation.

    Macrophage colony stimulating factor prevents NMDA-induced neuronal death in hippocampal organotypic cultures (2002)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Science Ltd

    Notizen: Macrophage colony stimulating factor (M-CSF) and its receptor are up-regulated in the brain in Alzheimer's disease (AD), in transgenic mouse models for AD, and experimental models for traumatic and ischemic brain injury. M-CSF induces activation and proliferation of microglial cells and expression of proinflammatory cytokines. We examined the role of M-CSF in excitotoxic neuronal cell death in organotypic hippocampal cultures. NMDA treatment induced neuronal apoptosis and caspase-3 activation in organotypic hippocampal cultures, whereas treatment with M-CSF protected hippocampal neurons from NMDA-induced apoptosis. Caspase-3 activation was inhibited by M-CSF treatment to the same degree as with the caspase inhibitor Z-VAD-FMK. These results suggest that M-CSF has neuroprotective properties through inhibition of caspase-3 that could promote neuronal survival after excitotoxic insult. The role of M-CSF in neurological disease should be reevaluated as a microglial activator with potentially neuroprotective effects.

    Inhibition of β-Amyloid Formation by Haloperidol: A Possible Mechanism for Reduced Frequency of Alzheimer's Disease Pathology in Schizophrenia (1997)

    Notizen: Abstract: Several reports have suggested that the frequency of Alzheimer's disease (AD) neuropathology is significantly reduced in elderly individuals with schizophrenia (SZ), and it has been proposed that medications used for treatment of SZ may be responsible. A central event in AD pathology is the formation of β-amyloid (Aβ) peptide, which is derived by enzymatic processing of its precursor protein. Haloperidol, an antipsychotic medication commonly used in the treatment of SZ, can act as an inhibitor of select proteinases; hence, we examined the ability of this compound to inhibit Aβ formation by cultured cells. Haloperidol and, to a lesser extent, droperidol inhibited Aβ in a dose-dependent manner. These results may explain the apparent reduction of AD neuropathological changes in elderly patients with SZ as well as provide a possible mechanism for this difference.
