Enlarged infarct volume and loss of BDNF mRNA induction following brain ischemia in mice lacking FGF-2 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
FGF-2, a potent multifunctional and neurotrophic growth factor, is widely expressed in the brain and upregulated in cerebral ischemia. Previous studies have shown that intraventricularly or systemically administered FGF-2 reduces the size of cerebral ...

Protective actions of des-acylated ghrelin on brain injury and blood-brain barrier disruption after stroke in mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The major ghrelin forms, acylated ghrelin and des-acylated ghrelin, are novel gastrointestinal hormones. Moreover, emerging evidence indicates that these peptides may have other functions including neuro- and vaso-protection.

Change in Cognition Following Ischaemic Stroke

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Cognitive decline can occur following ischaemic stroke. How cognition changes over time and associations with cognitive change are poorly understood. This study aimed to explore these issues over 2 years following ischaemic stroke.

Quantity and Volume of Perivascular Spaces Are Inversely Associated With Multiple Sclerosis Relative to Cerebrovascular Disease and Migraine

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To quantify the number and volume of whole brain perivascular spaces (PVS) using a detection and segmentation algorithm in participants with multiple sclerosis (MS) and patients with disorders mimicking MS known to potentially influence PVS, such as cerebrovascular disease.

Altered Dynamic Functional Network Connectivity in Post‐Stroke Aphasia

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Previous studies examining post‐stroke aphasia (PSA) patients via resting‐state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs‐fMRI) have predominantly focused on static functional connectivity. In contrast, the current investigation aims to elucidate the alterations in dynamic functional network connectivity (dFNC) among PSA patients ...

The C242T polymorphism of the NAD(P)H oxidase p22(phox) subunit is associated with an enhanced risk for cerebrovascular disease at a young age [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Background and Purpose: Oxidative stress has been proposed as a major contributing factor for vascular disease, that acts independently from its participation in predisposing disorders such as diabetes and arterial hypertension.

Embedded 3D‐Coaxial Bioprinting of Stenotic Brain Vessels with a Mechanically Enhanced Extracellular Matrix Bioink for Investigating Hemodynamic Force‐Induced Endothelial Responses

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
In this study, a physically enhanced vascular dECM bioink and used 3D‐coaxial bioprinting are developed to fabricate mature brain blood vessels for cerebral atherosclerosis research. This model demonstrates that vascular geometry‐induced hemodynamic changes trigger vascular inflammation, ensuring its potential for cerebrovascular research.

Cerebral ischemia and histamine.

open access: yesFolia Pharmacologica Japonica, 2002
Cerebral ischemia induces excess release of glutamate and an increase in the intracellular Ca2+ concentration, which provoke catastrophic enzymatic processes leading to irreversible neuronal injury. Histamine plays the role of neurotransmitter in the central nervous system, and histaminergic fibers are widely distributed in the brain.

Assessing the effect of statins in lowering the risk of stroke and preventing cerebral ischemia in patients with hypercholesterolemia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Numerous analyses have explored the role of statins in reducing stroke incidence, reducing cerebral ischemia in hypercholesterolemic patients, and preventing ischemic stroke.

Neuroprotective efficacy of nimesulide against hippocampal neuronal damage following transient forebrain ischemia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Cyclooxygenase-2 is involved in the inflammatory component of the ischemic cascade, playing an important role in the delayed progression of the brain damage.
