Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Alfredo Furno"
Alfredo Furno's research predominantly focuses on the neuroprotective effects of estrogen and the impacts of neurotoxic substances on hippocampal function, particularly in postnatal development.
His studies demonstrate that 17β-estradiol (E2) pretreatment can mitigate hippocampal injuries caused by trimethyltin (TMT), suggesting potential therapeutic avenues for neurodevelopmental disorders.
Additionally, Furno's work on TMT indicates that it modulates reelin expression and neurogenesis, providing insights into the biochemical changes during neurodegeneration in the developing rat hippocampus.
