toluene and Nerve Degeneration

toluene has been researched along with Nerve Degeneration in 12 studies

methylbenzene : Any alkylbenzene that is benzene substituted with one or more methyl groups.

Nerve Degeneration: Loss of functional activity and trophic degeneration of nerve axons and their terminal arborizations following the destruction of their cells of origin or interruption of their continuity with these cells. The pathology is characteristic of neurodegenerative diseases. Often the process of nerve degeneration is studied in research on neuroanatomical localization and correlation of the neurophysiology of neural pathways.

" By day 1, and extending through 4 days following kainic acid-induced seizures, brains from DNA-PKcs null mice showed widespread neurodegeneration that encompassed the entire hippocampal CA1-CA3 pyramidal cell layer, entorhinal cortex, and lateral septum, with relative sparing of the dentate gyrus granule cell layer and hilus, as judged by toluidine blue, Fluoro-Jade B, and terminal dUTP nick end labeling staining."7.73DNA damage and nonhomologous end joining in excitotoxicity: neuroprotective role of DNA-PKcs in kainic acid-induced seizures. ( Chechlacz, M; Gilliams-Francis, K; Lamonica, K; Lin, SL; Liu, J; Naegele, JR; Navarro-Quiroga, I; Neema, M, 2005)
