Scientific Background | Cyclosporine A is a cyclic peptide immunosuppressant that inhibits calcineurin, thereby preventing the activation of NF-AT and downstream T-cell responses. In neuroscience, cyclosporine has been investigated for its neuroprotective effects, particularly in models of traumatic brain injury, stroke, and neurodegenerative diseases. By inhibiting mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) opening, cyclosporine helps preserve mitochondrial integrity and prevent apoptosis in neurons. Its ability to modulate calcium signaling and reduce oxidative stress makes it a promising agent for protecting neural tissue under pathological conditions. |
