Description
Novel Neuropeptide Shown to Have Neuroprotective Effects by Increasing Phosphorylation of Akt. Results suggested that FK18 significantly increased the viability of and attenuated the apoptosis of SH-SY5Y cells. It also markedly alleviated I/R-induced retinal neuronal apoptosis, damage to retinal ganglion cells (RGCs), and morphological and functional damage to the retina. Moreover, FK18 increased Akt phosphorylation under both normoxic and OGD conditions, attenuated mitochondrial translocation of the proapoptotic protein Bad, up-regulated the expression of Bcl-2/Bax, and inhibited the release of cytochrome c from the mitochondria into the cytoplasm.
