Abstract
BACKGROUND Cadmium is a highly toxic heavy metal that is capable of accumulating in the body and causing neurodegeneration. However, the effect of other trace elements on Cd2+ toxicity is currently poorly understood. The aim of this work was to study the effect of Zn2+ and Cu2+ ions on cadmium-induced death of neurons in the cerebral cortex. METHODS The work was performed on rat cortical primary cultures. The MTT test was used to determine the cytotoxicity effects. Analysis of intracellular Ca2+ concentration was assessed by the Fluo-4 AM calcium indicator that exhibit an increase in fluorescence upon binding Ca2+. MitoSOX Red (mitochondrial superoxide indicator) was used to measuring mitochondrial ROS content in live cells. RESULTS In this article, we show that the administration of CdCl2 (0.005-0.02 mM) for 48 h induced an increase in dose-dependent death rate of cultured cortical neurons. Mature neurons were more sensitive to the damaging effects of Cd2+ than immature ones. ZnCl2 (0.01-0.03 mM) significantly protected neurons from this toxic effect. In contrast to ZnCl2, CuCl2 (0.01 mM) increased cadmium neurotoxicity. Using Fluo-4 AM, measurements of intracellular calcium ions demonstrated that 24 h-exposure to Cd2+ induced intensive increase in Fluo-4 fluorescence in neurons, which was significantly reduced by zinc ions. CuCl2 increased the cadmium-induced Fluo-4 and MitoSOX Red fluorescence in neurons. The chelator of intracellular Ca2+ BAPTA significantly decreased Cd2+-induced intensive increase in Fluo-4 fluorescence in cells. CONCLUSION The data obtained by us indicate that Zn2+ and Cu2+ can affect the neurotoxicity of cadmium in different directions: Zn2+ weaken the violation of intracellular calcium homeostasis caused by cadmium, preventing cell death, while Cu2+ potentiate the increase in the level of free intracellular calcium induced by cadmium and the development of mitochondrial dysfunction with an increase in the production of free radicals in differentiated cultured neurons of the cerebral cortex, which ultimately stimulates cytotoxicity.

Abstract
The disruption of homeostasis of zinc (Zn2+) and copper (Cu2+) ions in the central nervous system is involved in the pathogenesis of many neurodegenerative diseases, such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Wilson's, Creutzfeldt-Jakob, Parkinson's, and Alzheimer's diseases (AD), and traumatic brain injury (TBI). The last two pathological conditions of the brain are the most common; moreover, it is possible that TBI is a risk factor for the development of AD. Disruptions of Zn2+ and Cu2+ homeostasis play an important role in the mechanisms of pathogenesis of both TBI and AD. This review attempts to summarize and systematize the currently available research data on this issue. The neurocytotoxicity of Cu2+ and Zn2+, the synergism of the toxic effect of calcium and Zn2+ ions on the mitochondria of neurons, and the interaction of Zn2+ and Cu2+ with β-amyloid (Abeta) and tau protein are considered.

Abstract
Provision of NAD+ for oxidative decarboxylation of alpha-ketoglutarate to succinyl-CoA by the ketoglutarate dehydrogenase complex (KGDHC) is critical for maintained operation of succinyl-CoA ligase yielding high-energy phosphates, a process known as mitochondrial substrate-level phosphorylation (mSLP). We have shown previously that when NADH oxidation by complex I is inhibited by rotenone or anoxia, mitochondrial diaphorases yield NAD+, provided that suitable quinones are present (Kiss G et al., FASEB J 2014, 28:1682). This allows for KGDHC reaction to proceed and as an extension of this, mSLP. NAD(P)H quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) is an enzyme exhibiting diaphorase activity. Here, by using Nqo1-/- and WT littermate mice we show that in rotenone-treated, isolated liver mitochondria 2-methoxy-1,4-naphtoquinone (MNQ) is preferentially reduced by matrix Nqo1 yielding NAD+ to KGDHC, supporting mSLP. This process was sensitive to inhibition by specific diaphorase inhibitors. Reduction of idebenone and its analogues MRQ-20 and MRQ-56, menadione, mitoquinone and duroquinone were unaffected by genetic disruption of the Nqo1 gene. The results allow for the conclusions that i) MNQ is a Nqo1-preferred substrate, and ii) in the presence of suitable quinones, mitochondrially-localized diaphorases other than Nqo1 support NADH oxidation when complex I is inhibited. Our work confirms that complex I bypass can occur by quinones reduced by intramitochondrial diaphorases oxidizing NADH, ultimately supporting mSLP. Finally, it may help to elucidate structure-activity relationships of redox-active quinones with diaphorase enzymes.

Abstract
The delayed protective effect of GK-2, a dipeptide mimetic of Nerve Growth Factor, was investigated on the model of focal one-sided traumatic brain injury (TBI) of the sensorimotor cortex region on the 180th day after the injury. TBI caused a reliably disruption of the functions of the limbs contralateral to injury focus. The intraperitoneal administration of GK-2 (1 mg/kg) from 1st to 4th and from 7th to 10th days after TBI reduced the impairment of the motor functions of the limbs. This therapeutic effect significant manifested itself from the 7th day and continued until the end of the experiment - on the 180th day after TBI. Morphological studies of the animal brains on the 180th day after TBI demonstrated a decrease in the number of neurons in the V layer of the cerebral cortex and a decrease in the thickness of the corpus callosum. The treatment of animals with GK-2 after TBI statistically significant prevented a decrease in the density of neurons in the ipsilateral hemisphere and a decrease in the thickness of the corpus callosum in the contralateral hemisphere in comparison with untreated animals. Additionally, we showed in vitro that GK-2 exhibits neuroprotective properties under oxidative stress in primary hippocampal cultures. Our results demonstrate that the use of GK-2 at the early stages of development of traumatic brain damage can prevent such delayed damage as neuronal and axonal degeneration as well as reduce TBI-related disruptions of brain functions.

Abstract
Copper (Cu2+) is an essential metal presented in the mammalian brain and released from synaptic vesicles following neuronal depolarization. However, the disturbance of Cu2+ homeostasis results in neurotoxicity. In our study we performed for the first time a combined functional investigation of cultured hippocampal neurons under Cu2+ exposure, its effect on spontaneous spike activity of hippocampal neuronal network cultured on multielectrode array (MEA), and development of long-term potentiation (LTP) in acute hippocampal slices in the presence of Cu2+. Application of 0.2mM CuCl2 for 24h reduced viability of cultured neurons to 40±6%, whereas 0.01mM CuCl2 did not influence significantly on the neuronal survival. However, exposure to the action of 0.01mM Cu2+ resulted in pronounced reduction of network spike activity and abolished LTP induced by high-frequency stimulation of Schaffer's collaterals in CA1 pyramidal neurons of hippocampal slices. Antioxidant Trolox, the hydrosoluble vitamin E analogue, prevented neurotoxic effect and alterations of network activity under Cu2+ exposure, but didn't change the impairment of LTP in Cu2+-exposured hippocampal slices. We hypothesized that spontaneous network neuronal activity probably is one of the potential targets of Cu2+-induced neurotoxicity, in which free radicals can be involved. At the same time, it may be suggested that Cu2+-induced alterations of long-lasting trace processes (like LTP) are not mediated by oxidative damage.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A growing body of evidence supports a beneficial role for vitamin K in brain and cognition, notably in studies where animals are rendered vitamin K deficient by warfarin, a potent vitamin K antagonist (VKA). Given VKAs are commonly used oral anticoagulants in older persons, we investigated the relationship between VKA therapy and cognitive performances over 10 years in participants of the Three-City study. METHODS The Three-City cohort included 7,133 nondemented community dwellers, aged 65 years or older at baseline. Exposures to VKAs and platelet aggregation inhibitors, another antithrombotic agent, were determined at baseline. Participants underwent cognitive assessment at baseline and every 2 years over 10 years. Associations were analyzed with mixed linear models adjusting for many covariates including VKA and platelet aggregation inhibitor indications. RESULTS About 239 (3.4%) and 1,192 (16.7%) of the participants were treated with VKAs and platelet aggregation inhibitors at baseline, respectively. VKA treatment was significantly associated with worse performances on Benton Visual Retention Test assessing visual memory (adjusted mean difference -0.29; p = .02 in multivariate models) and Isaacs Set Test assessing verbal fluency (adjusted mean difference -1.37; p = .0009) at baseline. Treatment with VKAs was not associated with global cognitive functioning on the Mini Mental State Examination, neither with rate of subsequent decline in scores on all three cognitive tests. No associations were found between platelet aggregation inhibitors and cognitive performances or rate of decline. CONCLUSION These findings do not indicate a long-term detrimental effect of VKAs on cognition, but the risk-benefit balance of VKA treatment still deserves further research.

Abstract
The global incidence of metabolic and age-related diseases, including type 2 diabetes and Alzheimer's disease, is on the rise. In addition to traditional pharmacotherapy, drug candidates from complementary and alternative medicine are actively being pursued for further drug development. Berberine, a nutraceutical traditionally used as an antibiotic, has recently been proposed to act as a multi-target protective agent against type 2 diabetes, dyslipidemias, ischemic brain injury and neurodegenerative diseases, such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease. However, the safety profile of berberine remains controversial, as isolated reports suggest risks with acute toxicity, bradycardia and exacerbation of neurodegeneration. We report that low micromolar berberine causes rapid mitochondria-dependent toxicity in primary neurons characterized by mitochondrial swelling, increased oxidative stress, decreased mitochondrial membrane potential and depletion of ATP content. Berberine does not induce caspase-3 activation and the resulting neurotoxicity remains unaffected by pan-caspase inhibitor treatment. Interestingly, inhibition of NMDA receptors by memantine and MK-801 completely blocked berberine-induced neurotoxicity. Additionally, subtoxic nanomolar concentrations of berberine were sufficient to sensitize neurons to glutamate excitotoxicity and rotenone injury. Our study highlights the need for further safety assessment of berberine, especially due to its tendency to accumulate in the CNS and the risk of potential neurotoxicity as a consequence of increasing bioavailability of berberine.

Abstract
Evidence is accumulating that vitamin K could have a role in cognition, especially in aging. Using data from the Québec Longitudinal Study on Nutrition and Successful Aging (NuAge), a cross-sectional analysis was conducted to examine the associations between vitamin K status, measured as serum phylloquinone concentrations, and performance in verbal and non-verbal episodic memory, executive functions, and speed of processing. The sample included 320 men and women aged 70 to 85 years who were free of cognitive impairment. After adjustment for covariates, higher serum phylloquinone concentration (log-transformed) was associated with better verbal episodic memory performances (F = 2.43, p = 0.048); specifically with the scores (Z-transformed) on the second (β = 0.47; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.13-0.82), third (β = 0.41; 95% CI = 0.06-0.75), and 20-minute delayed (β = 0.47; 95% CI = 0.12-0.82) free recall trials of the RL/RI-16 Free and Cued Recall Task. No associations were found with non-verbal episodic memory, executive functions, and speed of processing. Our study adds evidence to the possible role of vitamin K in cognition during aging, specifically in the consolidation of the memory trace.

Abstract
Rotenone, a common pesticide and inhibitor of mitochondrial complex I, induces microglial activation and loss of dopaminergic neurons in models of Parkinson's disease. However, the mechanisms of rotenone neurotoxicity are still poorly defined. Here, we used primary neuronal/glial cultures prepared from rat cerebella to investigate the contribution of microglia to neuronal cell death induced by low concentrations of rotenone. Rotenone at 2.5 nm induced neuronal loss over several days without increasing the numbers of necrotic or apoptotic neurons, and neuronal loss/death could be prevented by selective removal of microglia. Rotenone increased microglial proliferation and phagocytic activity, without increasing tumour necrosis factor-α release. Rotenone-induced neuronal loss/death could be prevented by inhibition of phagocytic signalling between neurons and microglia with: cyclo(Arg-Gly-Asp-d-Phe-Val) (to block the microglial vitronectin receptor); MRS2578 (to block the microglial P2Y6 receptor); or either annexin V or an antibody against phosphatidylserine (to block exposed phosphatidylserine, a well-characterized neuronal 'eat-me' signal). As inhibition of phagocytosis by five different means prevented neuronal loss without increasing neuronal death, these data indicate that rotenone neurotoxicity is at least partially mediated by microglial phagocytosis of otherwise viable neurons (phagoptosis). Thus, neuronal loss in Parkinson's disease and other neurological diseases might be prevented by blocking phagocytic signalling.

Abstract
Severe acidosis caused death of cultured cerebellar granule neurons (CGNs). Acidosis was accompanied by a progressive increase of the intracellular zinc ions ([Zn(2+)](i)) and decrease of [Ca(2+)](i). Zn(2+) chelator, N,N,N',N'-tetrakis(2-pyridylmethyl)ethylenediamine (TPEN), prevented the increase of [Zn(2+)](i) and acidosis-induced neuronal death. However, neuronal death was insensitive to blockade of ASIC1 channels with amiloride, as CGNs display considerably lower expression of ASIC1a than other neurons. The antioxidant trolox and menadione significantly protected neurons from acidotic death. Earlier, we demonstrated that menadione rescues neurons from the deleterious effect of inhibition of mitochondrial complex I (Isaev et al. Neuroreport 15:2227-2231, 2004). We speculate that excessive Zn(2+)-dependent production of reactive oxygen species by mitochondrial complex I may be a general motive for the induction of cell death in CGNs under acidotic conditions.

Abstract
Partial inhibition of mitochondrial respiratory complex I by rotenone reproduces aspects of Parkinson's disease in rodents. The hypothesis that rotenone enhancement of neuronal cell death is attributable to oxidative stress was tested in an acute glutamate excitotoxicity model using primary cultures of rat cerebellar granule neurons. As little as 5 nM rotenone increased mitochondrial superoxide (O2*-) levels and potentiated glutamate-induced cytoplasmic Ca2+ deregulation, the first irreversible stage of necrotic cell death. However, the potent cell-permeant O2*- trap manganese tetrakis (N-ethylpyridinium-2yl) porphyrin failed to prevent the effects of the inhibitor. The bioenergetic consequences of rotenone addition were quantified by monitoring cell respiration. Glutamate activation of NMDA receptors used the full respiratory capacity of the in situ mitochondria, and >80% of the glutamate-stimulated respiration was attributable to increased cellular ATP demand. Rotenone at 20 nM inhibited basal and carbonyl cyanide p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone-stimulated cell respiration and caused respiratory failure in the presence of glutamate. ATP synthase inhibition by oligomycin was also toxic in the presence of glutamate. We conclude that the cell vulnerability in the rotenone model of partial complex I deficiency under these specific conditions is primarily determined by spare respiratory capacity rather than oxidative stress.

Abstract
We have examined whether changes in the expression of several inflammatory factors mediate the neuroprotective action of LPS preconditioning on cerebellar granule neurones (CGN) exposed to the mitochondrial toxin 3-nitropropionic acid (3-NP), chosen as an in vitro ischemic model. CGN were either directly pre-treated with LPS or indirectly by exposure to conditioned medium (CM) from LPS-treated mixed glial cultures obtained from wild type or IL-1beta-knock out mice. Following this pre-treatment CGN were incubated with 3-NP and cell viability assessed. Our results show that LPS preconditioning in neurones, promotes neuronal survival against 3-NP-induced cell death and that endogenous TNF-alpha is a critical mediator for the neuroprotective actions of LPS independently of the presence of endogenous IL-1beta after 3-NP exposure.
