Function of BID - a molecule of the bcl-2 family - in ischemic cell death in the brain [PDF]
Mitochondrial mechanisms, particularly the release of cytochrome c, play a role in the death of nerve and glial cells in cerebral ischemia. We have currently investigated whether BID, a proapoptotic molecule of the bcl-2 family and promoter of the ...

The protective effect of M40401, a superoxide dismutase mimetic, on post-ischemic brain damage in Mongolian gerbils [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Overproduction of free radical species has been shown to occur in brain tissues after ischemia-reperfusion injury. However, most of free radical scavengers known to antagonize oxidative damage (e.g. superoxide dismutase, catalase), are unable

Parkinsonian Neurotoxins Impair the Pro-inflammatory Response of Glial Cells
In the case of Parkinson’s disease (PD), epidemiological studies have reported that pesticide exposure is a risk factor for its pathology. It has been suggested that some chemical agents, such as rotenone and paraquat, that inhibit the mitochondrial ...

Effects and Mechanisms of Exosomes from Different Sources in Cerebral Ischemia
Cerebral ischemia refers to the symptom of insufficient blood supply to the brain. Cells of many different origins participate in the process of repairing damage after cerebral ischemia occurs, in which exosomes secreted by the cells play important roles.

Phase I and Phase II Therapies for Acute Ischemic Stroke: An Update on Currently Studied Drugs in Clinical Research. [PDF]
Acute ischemic stroke is a devastating cause of death and disability, consequences of which depend on the time from ischemia onset to treatment, the affected brain region, and its size.

Traumatic brain ischemia during neuro intensive care: myth rather than fact [PDF]
In non-missile severe acute brain trauma, brain ischemia was a frequent finding in cadavers. Studies during neuro intensive care, however, have failed to disclose brain ischemia under most circumstances, except when cerebral hemodynamic and metabolic ...
