Neuroprotective approaches that jimit the pathological changes and improve the behavioral outcome have been well explained in different experimental models of neuropathy but translation of such strategies to clinics has been disappointing. Experimental evidences revealed the role of free radicals, especially per- oxynitrite after the nerve injury. They provoke oxidative DNA damage and consequent over-activation of the poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) upregulates pro-inflammatory pathways, causing bioenergetic crisis and neuronal death. Along with these changes, it causes mitochondrial dysfunction leading to neu- ronal apoptosis. In related preclinical studies agents that neutralize the free radicals and pharmacological inhibitors of PARP have shown benefits in treating experimental neuropathy. This article reviews the in- volvement of PARP over-activation in trauma induced neuropathy and therapeutic significance of PARP inhibitors in the experimental neuropathy and neuropathic pain.展开更多

The present study investigated human PARP-1 gene polymorphisms in various Chinese nationalities, the results of which could potentially help in the treatment and prevention of neurologic diseases. Genetic polymorphisms of seven exons in the PARP-1 gene, in 898 Chinese Han, Buyi, Shui, Miao, and Zhuang subjects, were investigated by PCR-single-strand conformation polymorphism. A single-strand conformation polymorphism variant in exons 12, 13, 16, and 17 of the PARP-1 gene was identified in 148 people, with two stationary bands showing three degenerative single strands. Results showed that the PARP-1 gene polymorphisms exist in various nationalities, and may act as a biomarker for susceptibility to disease.展开更多
