Abstract:
The monosialic acid ganglioside GM1 is rich in brain, which participates in the development process of the nerve system and plays wide neuroprotective roles. This article reviews recent reports about six neuroprotective mechanisms including: activating tyrosine kinase receptor——Trk receptor, modulating Ca 2+ homeostasis in cells, reducing the deposition of A? and its toxic roles in brain, inhibiting the production of reactive oxygen species, enhancing the activity of Na+,K+-ATPase.
