Protective effects of vitamin D on neurophysiologic alterations in brain aging: role of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF)

Eman Y. Khairy et al.

Summary: This study found that vitamin D supplementation can significantly alleviate the aging-related reductions in brain BDNF levels, AChE and antioxidant enzyme activities, and elevation in malondialdehyde levels and caspase-3 activity. Furthermore, brain BDNF levels were positively correlated with serum vitamin D levels and brain AChE activity, and negatively correlated with brain malondialdehyde levels and caspase-3 activity in the supplemented groups.

Vitamin D3/vitamin D receptor signaling mitigates symptoms of post-stroke depression in mice by upregulating hippocampal BDNF expression

Yunxuan Xu et al.

Summary: The study demonstrated that Vitamin D3 may act as an antidepressant in post-stroke depression (PSD) model mice by promoting hippocampal BDNF signaling, improving motor function and depression-like behaviors.

Serotonin depletion during the postnatal developmental period causes behavioral and cognitive alterations and decreases BDNF level in the brain of rats

Hakimeh Saadati et al.

Summary: The study revealed that serotonin has significant effects on neurodevelopment, cognitive functions, and behavior in rats. Administration of para-chlorophenylalanine (PCPA) during the early postnatal period resulted in impaired short-term novel object recognition memory, increased anxiety-like behaviors, enhanced pain sensitivity, and decreased BDNF levels in the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex.

The Neuroprotective Effect of Mesna on Cisplatin-Induced Neurotoxicity: Behavioral, Electrophysiological, and Molecular Studies

Hakimeh Saadati et al.

Summary: The study demonstrated that mesna has protective effects against cisplatin-induced neurotoxicity, improving behavioral and molecular parameters such as cognitive impairments, anxiety, muscle strength, and inflammatory responses. Mesna showed potential in alleviating both central and peripheral nervous system toxicity induced by cisplatin, as well as partially inhibiting chemotherapy-induced neuropathy.

Alterations in the behavior, cognitive function, and BDNF level in adult male rats following neonatal blockade of GABA-A receptors

Parviz Naderipoor et al.

Summary: The study found that blockade of GABA-A receptors in neonatal rats can affect neurobehavioral phenotypes in adulthood, with higher doses increasing passive avoidance memory and hippocampal BDNF levels, while lower doses impair this memory type and increase PFC BDNF levels. Additionally, drug treatment during the neonatal period increased anxiety and pain sensitivity in a dose-dependent manner. Overall, these results suggest the importance of GABA-A receptors in programming neurobehavioral phenotypes in adult life.

Melatonin protects rats testes against bleomycin, etoposide, and cisplatin-induced toxicity via mitigating nitro-oxidative stress and apoptosis

Mojtaba Moradi et al.

Summary: Melatonin protects the testes against BEP-induced testicular damage by restoring spermatogenesis, improving testosterone levels, and ameliorating oxidative stress. Furthermore, melatonin therapy suppresses BEP-evoked apoptosis in testes, suggesting its potential as a clinical therapy against BEP-associated gonadotoxicity and male sub/infertility.
