“…Celastrol has been tested as a neuroprotectant in various models of neurodegeneration with a beneficial outcome (Deane & Brown, ; Faust et al., ; Gu et al., ; Jantas et al., ; Kyung et al., ; Sun et al., ; Xu et al., ; Zhang et al., ) by inducing rapid HSP70 expression (Allison et al., ; Cascão, Fonseca, & Moita, ; Chow & Brown, ; DeMeester, Buchman, & Cobb, ; Kannaiyan, Shanmugam, & Sethi, ; Salminen et al., ; Traynor et al., ; Trott et al., ; Welsh, Moyer, & Harris, ; Westerheide et al., ). Its action on spinal excitotoxicity remains, however, to be studied.…”
