J Cancer Res Clin Oncol 137:287-93. 2011..The present study aimed to investigate the efficacy of intranasal administration of monoterpene POH upon survival rate of patients with recurrent glioblastoma (GBM) in comparison with historical control group of GBM patients...
Ras pathway activation in gliomas: a strategic target for intranasal administration of perillyl alcoholClovis Orlando da Fonseca
Servico de Neurocirurgia, Hospital Universitario Antonio Pedro, Universidade Federal Fluminense, Niteroi, RJ, Brazil
Arch Immunol Ther Exp (Warsz) 56:267-76. 2008..Intranasal delivery allows drugs that do not cross the blood-brain barrier to enter the central nervous system. Moreover, it eliminates the need for systemic delivery, thereby reducing unwanted systemic side effects...
Preliminary results from a phase I/II study of perillyl alcohol intranasal administration in adults with recurrent malignant gliomasClovis Orlando da Fonseca

Surg Neurol 70:259-66; discussion 266-7. 2008..The intranasal delivery allows drugs that do not cross the BBB to enter the CNS; moreover, it eliminates the need for systemic delivery, thereby reducing unwanted systemic side effects...
Anaplastic oligodendroglioma responding favorably to intranasal delivery of perillyl alcohol: a case report and literature reviewClovis O Da Fonseca
Servico de Neurocirurgia, Hospital Universitario Antonio Pedro, Universidade Federal Fluminense, 24030 210 Niterói, RJ, Brazil
Surg Neurol 66:611-5. 2006..To explore therapeutic strategies and evaluate the clinical results, we report a case of a patient with anaplastic oligodendroglioma managed with intranasal delivery of POH...
Cytoplasmic c-Jun N-terminal immunoreactivity: a hallmark of retinal apoptosisLuciana B Chiarini
Instituto de Biofisica da UFRJ, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
Cell Mol Neurobiol 22:711-26. 2002..5. Antibodies directed to c-Jun N-terminal (aa 91-105) are useful tools to follow apoptotic changes in retinal tissue...
Cellular prion protein transduces neuroprotective signalsLuciana B Chiarini
Instituto de Biofisica da UFRJ, CCS, Bloco G, Cidade Universitaria, 21949 900, Rio de Janeiro, Brasil
EMBO J 21:3317-26. 2002..Thus, engagement of PrP(c) transduces neuroprotective signals through a cAMP/PKA-dependent pathway. PrP(c) may function as a trophic receptor, the activation of which leads to a neuroprotective state...
Nuclear proteasomal degradation and cytoplasmic retention underlie early nuclear exclusion of transcription factor Max upon axon damageHilda Petrs-Silva
Instituto de Biofisica da UFRJ, CCS, Bloco G, Cidade Universitaria, 21941 900, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
Exp Neurol 213:202-9. 2008....
Interleukin-4 blocks proliferation of retinal progenitor cells and increases rod photoreceptor differentiation through distinct signaling pathwaysAna Gabriela Ledo Santos da Silva
Programa de Neurobiologia, Instituto de Biofisica Carlos Chagas Filho, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro, Centro de Ciencias da Saude, Bl G, Cidade Universitaria, 21949 900, Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brazil
J Neuroimmunol 196:82-93. 2008..Taken together, our results show, for the first time, that IL-4 directly modulates proliferation of retinal cells and rod photoreceptor differentiation, through distinct signaling pathways...
Differential effects of cyclin-dependent kinase blockers upon cell death in the developing retinaStevens K Rehen
Instituto de Biofisica da UFRJ, Centro de Ciencias da Saude, Bloco G, Cidade Universitaria, 21949-900, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
Brain Res 947:78-83. 2002..Our results indicate that cyclin-dependent kinases are involved in the control of sensitivity to cell death in the retina, and that retinal cells present differentiation-dependent responses to modulation of CDK activity...
STI1 promotes glioma proliferation through MAPK and PI3K pathwaysRafael B Erlich
Departamento de Anatomia, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
Glia 55:1690-8. 2007..These results provide initial evidence of a new functional role for STI1 on the physiology of human gliomas, and may lead to the identification of new therapeutic targets in these tumors...
Signaling induced by hop/STI-1 depends on endocytosisTatiana A Americo
Instituto de Biofisica da UFRJ, Centro de Ciencias da Saude, Bloco G, Cidade Universitaria, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
Biochem Biophys Res Commun 358:620-5. 2007....
Structure of laminin substrate modulates cellular signaling for neuritogenesisElisabete Freire
, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro, Rio de Janeiro, 21941-590, Brazil
J Cell Sci 115:4867-76. 2002..We propose that laminin can self-assemble independently of cell contact and that the assembling mode differentially modulates neuritogenesis and neuroplasticity...
Glial-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) prevents ethanol (EtOH) induced B92 glial cell death by both PI3K/AKT and MEK/ERK signaling pathwaysSantiago Nahuel Villegas
Molecular Biology, IMBICE, Camino Belgrano y 526, CC 403, 1900 La Plata, Argentina Instituto de Biofísica da UFRJ, CCS, Bloco G, Cidade Universitaria, 21949 900 Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Early nuclear exclusion of the transcription factor max is associated with retinal ganglion cell death independent of caspase activityHilda Petrs-Silva
Instituto de Biofisica Carlos Chagas Filho, UFRJ, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
J Cell Physiol 198:179-87. 2004..The data show that nuclear exclusion of the transcription factor Max is an early event, which precedes and is independent of the activation of caspases, during apoptotic cell death in the central nervous system...
