The p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) isoforms are phosphorylated by a variety of stress stimuli in neurodegenerative disease and act as upstream activators of myriad pathogenic processes. Thus, p38 MAPK inhibitors are of growing interest…
Failure of anterograde transport to distal targets in the brain is a common feature of neurodegenerative diseases. We have demonstrated in rodent models of glaucoma, the most common optic neuropathy, early loss of anterograde transport along the…
