Neurotoksin
Istilah neurotoksin ("racun saraf"; daripada Yunani neuron "saraf" + Latin toxicum "racun") merupakan sejenis serangan kimia eksogen terhadap sistem saraf[3] yang boleh menjejaskan fungsi tisu saraf yang berkembang mahupun matang.[4] Istilah ini juga digunakan untuk menggolongkan sebatian endogen yang boleh meracuni saraf apabila disebatikan secara luar biasa.[3] Biarpun neurotoksin boleh memusnahkan saraf, namun yang penting dalam mengaji sistem saraf adalah keupayaaan neurotoksin untuk menyasar komponen saraf secara khususnya.[5] Antara contoh am neurotoksin adalah plumbum,[6] etanol,[7] glutamat,[8] nitrik oksida (NO),[9] toksin botulinum,[10] toksin tetanus,[11] dan tetrodotoksin.[5]
Kegiatan neurotoksin boleh disifatkan dengan kebolehan untuk menambat kawalan neuron terhadap kepekatan ion di seluruh membran sel[5] atau perhubungan sesama neuron di seluruh sinaps.[12] Patologi pendedahan setempat kepada neurotoksin lazimnya merangkumi ketoksikan rangsangan neuron atau apoptosis[13] bahkan juga kerosakan sel glia.[14] Manifestasi makroskopik pendedahan kepada neurotoksin boleh termasuk kerosakan seluruh sistem saraf pusat seperti kerencatan otak,[4] gangguan ingatan berlarutan,[15] sawan, dan demensia.[16] Selain itu, sering berlakunya kerosakan neurotoksin terhadap sistem sarah periferi seperti neuropati atau miopati. Disarankannya beberapa cara untuk merawat kecederaan akibat neurotoksin seperti suntikan antioksidan,[7] antitoksin[17] dan etanol[18].
