Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) arise from a variety of tissues, including bone marrow and
adipose tissue and, accordingly, have the potential to differentiate into multiple cell types …

The Wnt/β-catenin or Wnt canonical pathway controls multiple biological processes
throughout development and adult life. Growing evidences have suggested that …

Objectives Available literature documents that ischemic stroke can disrupt the morphology
and function of mitochondria and that the latter in other disease models can be preserved by …

ATP binding cassette (ABC) transporters at the blood–brain barrier function as ATP‐driven
xenobiotic efflux pumps and limit delivery of small molecule drugs to the brain. Here I review …

Abstract Ginsenoside Rg1 (Rg1) is a major bioactive ingredient in Panax ginseng that has
low toxicity and has been shown to have neuroprotective effects. The objectives of the …

The central nervous system (CNS) is highly sensitive to external mechanical damage,
presenting a limited capacity for regeneration explained in part by its inability to restore …

A proper balance between synapse assembly and disassembly is crucial for the formation of
functional neuronal circuits and synaptic plasticity in the adult brain. During development …

Neuroprotective actions of 17β-estradiol (estradiol) are in part mediated by direct actions on
neurons. Astrocytes, which play an essential role in the maintenance of the homeostasis of …

We previously reported that traumatic brain injuries (TBI) alter the cerebrovasculature near
the injury site in rats, followed by revascularization over a 2-week period. Here, we tested …

Accumulating evidence supports a key role for Wnt signaling in the development of the
central nervous system (CNS) during embryonic development and in the regulation of the …
