Moreover, other neurotrophic factors such as brain-derived neurotrophic factor and glia cell line-derived neurotrophic factor also reduced rotenone- or colchicine-induced microtubule depolymerization and death of TH (+) through a MEK-dependent mechanism.

In this study, we investigated the protective effects of L-theanine on neurotoxicity induced by PD-related neurotoxicants, rotenone and dieldrin in cultured human dopaminergic cell line, SH-SY5Y.
Furthermore, pretreatment with L-theanine significantly attenuated the down-regulation of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) production in SH-SY5Y cells.

We also determined whether there were differential effects of RIP and HAL on the expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), signal transducers and activators of transcription-3 (STAT-3), and the immediate early gene c-fos, as well as intracellular levels of calcium.

18646205 Yang D, Peng C, Li X, Fan X, Li L, Ming M, Chen S, Le W: Pitx3-transfected astrocytes secrete brain-derived neurotrophic factor and glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor and protect dopamine neurons in mesencephalon cultures. J Neurosci Res. 2008 Nov 15;86(15):3393-400.

Incubation with the CM from Pitx3-transfected astrocytes significantly attenuated the rotenone-induced DA neuron injury, and such protection can be significantly blocked by preincubation with antibodies against either BDNF or GDNF, whereas preincubation with purified BDNF or GDNF replicated the neuroprotection against rotenone-induced injury in VM cultures.

RESULTS: We report here: (1) CM from RPE cells can secret trophic factors GDNF and BDNF, and protect DAergic neurons against the 6-OHDA- and rotenone-induced cell injury; (2) cultured RPE cells express L-dopa decarboxylase (DDC) and synthesize DA; (3) RPE cells attached to microcarriers can survive in the host striatum and improve the AIR in 6-OHDA-lesioned animal model of PD; (4) GDNF and BDNF levels are found significantly higher in the RPE cell-grafted tissues.
