BACKGROUND
Elevated plasma total homocysteine (tHcy) appeared in levodopa/dopadecarcoxylase inhibitor (DDI) treated patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). One therapeutic approach for tHcy reduction is vitamine supplementation, since folic acid and cobalamine catalyse and enhance metabolism of tHcy
Glomerulonephritis is one of the major complications and causes of death in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and is characterized by glomerulosclerosis, interstitial fibrosis, and tubular atrophy, along with severe persistent proteinuria. DZ2002 is a reversible We investigated the effect of S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAMe) on the prevention of the delayed neuronal death in rats subjected to transient and brief forebrain ischemia. As the results, SAMe dose-dependently protected the hippocampal CA1 neurons from degeneration and necrosis, whose effect was
Our results demonstrate that acute exposure of primary rat cerebellar granule cell cultures to homocysteine at millimolar concentrations induces a glutamate receptor-mediated decrease in tau protein phosphorylation, which is accompanied by excitotoxic neuronal damage. This contrasts with the
