Using organotypic hippocampal slice cultures to gain insight into mechanisms responsible for the neuroprotective effects of meloxicam: a role for gamma aminobutyric and endoplasmic reticulum stress

This perspective aims to put into context the recent article by Landucci et al.(2018)on mechanisms involved in the neuroprotective effects of meloxicam on an organotypic hippocampal slice cultures(OHSCs)model.In vitro cell cultures are the main method for studying large quantities of homogeneous cells in an isolated environment.Thus,the use of primary dissociated neuron,astrocyte,oligodendrocyte,microglia,or endothelial cell cultures has become a standard
