Ketogenic diet protects the hippocampus from kainic acid toxicity by inhibiting the dissociation of bad from 14‐3‐3

Abstract: The ketogenic diet (KD) is often effective for intractable epilepsy, but its antiepileptic mechanisms remain largely unknown. Within the cell death/survival pathway, Akt and its downstream protein Bad play an important role in kainic acid (KA)-induced cell death. Therefore, we investigated the effects of a KD on KA-induced changes in the Akt/Bad/14-3-3 signaling pathway by evaluating Akt, Bad, 14-3-3, and cleaved caspase-3 expression levels as well as their relative interactions. Our results showed that a KD d… Show more

“…Animal studies have found find that the KD protects against seizure-induced neurodegeneration and related sequelae (such as aberrant neurite sprouting; Muller-Schwarze et al, 1999; Noh et al, 2003, 2005, 2006b; Linard et al, 2010). The KD is also neuroprotective against ischemic damage (Tai et al, 2008, 2009), hypoglycemic damage (Yamada et al, 2005), and traumatic brain and spinal injury (Prins et al, 2005; Appelberg et al, 2009; Hu et al, 2009a,b; Prins and Hovda, 2009; Schwartzkroin et al, 2010; Streijger et al, 2011), and improves injury-related deficits in cognition and movement after traumatic brain and spinal injury, respectively (Appelberg et al, 2009; Streijger et al, 2011).…”

Ketosis is apparently crucial to these effects as direct application of ketones to in vitro tissue is also protective against hypoglycemia and ischemia (Samoilova et al, 2010), oxidative stress (Kim et al, 2007), and excitotoxicity (Massieu et al, 2003; Noh et al, 2006b; Maalouf et al, 2007; Samoilova et al, 2010). The mechanisms are likely to involve reduced reactive oxygen species, reduced tissue excitability, and enhanced production of high-energy molecules.…”

“…One potential neuroprotective effect of a ketogenic diet may be to prevent dissociation of the pro-apoptosis protein Bad from its binding partner 14-3-3 (Noh et al, 2006). Dissociation of Bad from 14-3-3 is one way to activate the apoptosis cascade.…”
