Ciliary neurotrophic factor protects striatal neurons against excitotoxicity by enhancing glial glutamate uptake.
Ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) is a potent neuroprotective cytokine in different animal models of glutamate-induced excitotoxicity, although its action mechanisms are still poorly characterized. We tested the hypothesis that an increased function of glial glutamate transporters (GTs) could under...
