亚洲通_亚洲通官网 Focus: Our research focus on the potential of extracellular vesicles, particularly exosomes derived dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) as a promising therapeutic agent for treating hippocampal neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s disease and temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). We have reported the neuro-immunomodulatory, neuroprotective, neurogenic and disease modifying potential of DPSCs/DPSC-Secretome/DPSCs exosome in in vitro and in vivo models of hippocampal neurodegeneration. DPSC-based therapies hold promise for treating Alzheimer’s disease, TLE, and possibly other neurodegenerative conditions characterized by hippocampal dysfunction. Currently we are exploring the precise mechanisms through which DPSCs and its exosomes exert their neuroprotective, neurogenic effects which could lead to the development of more targeted therapies.

Area of 亚洲通_亚洲通官网
Neurodegenerative diseases are devastating diseases wherein there is no identifiable treatment available so far. The primary focus of our research group is to understand the molecular, biochemical and cytoarchitectural changes that lead to progressive neurodegeneration and behavioural impairments in temporal lobe epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease and Alzheimer’s disease. From neuroprotection perspectives, we are actively exploring the possibilities of stimulating endogenous stem cells for functional recovery by means of environment manipulation, novel drug treatments and stem cell therapy. In line with this, we have demonstrated that a single intramuscular injection of genetically modified erythropoietin can protect dopaminergic neurons in animal models of Parkinson’s disease. We have also reported that transplanting hippocampal cells in brain injured rats can prevent neurodegeneration and improves cognitive functions. Currently, we are involved in understanding the molecular mechanisms of neuroprotection conferred by transplanted cells in protecting hippocampal neurons and ameliorating cognitive co-morbidities that are commonly observed in temporal lobe epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease and Alzheimer’s disease.
