Inhaled 45–50% argon augments hypothermic brain protection in a piglet model of perinatal asphyxia
Cooling to 33.5 °C in babies with neonatal encephalopathy significantly reduces death and disability, however additional therapies are needed to maximize brain protection.

Ilexsaponin A attenuates ischemia-reperfusion-induced myocardial injury through anti-apoptotic pathway. [PDF]
The protective effects of ilexsaponin A on ischemia-reperfusion-induced myocardial injury were investigated. Myocardial ischemia/reperfusion model was established in male Sprague-Dawley rats. Myocardial injury was evaluated by TTC staining and myocardial

The spectrum of Ischemia-induced white matter injury varies with age [PDF]
Stroke is a neurological condition that targets the whole range of the human population, from the pre-term infant to the elderly and is a major cause of death worldwide (Ingall 2004).

Hypoxic Preconditioning Suppresses Glial Activation and Neuroinflammation in Neonatal Brain Insults
Perinatal insults and subsequent neuroinflammation are the major mechanisms of neonatal brain injury, but there have been only scarce reports on the associations between hypoxic preconditioning and glial activation.

The effects of hyperglycaemic hypoxia on rectification in rat dorsal root axons [PDF]
1. Electrotonic responses to 150 ms current pulses were recorded from isolated rat dorsal roots incubated for at least 3 h with either normal (5 mM) or high (25 mM) D-glucose solutions, and with either normal (25 mM) or low (5 mM) bicarbonate ...

Role of cation gradients in hypercontracture of myocytes during simulated ischemia and reperfusion [PDF]
We examined the relationship between transsarcolemmal cation gradients and hypercontracture of cardiac myocytes in ischemia and reperfusion using adult rat ventricular myocytes superfused with buffer mimicking normal or ischemic extracellular fluid ...

Tetrahydrobiopterin in antenatal brain hypoxia-ischemia-induced motor impairments and cerebral palsy
Antenatal brain hypoxia-ischemia, which occurs in cerebral palsy, is considered a significant cause of motor impairments in children. The mechanisms by which antenatal hypoxia-ischemia causes brain injury and motor deficits still need to be elucidated ...

Antimicrobial peptides and complement in neonatal hypoxia-ischemia induced brain damage
Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) is a clinical condition in the neonate, resulting from oxygen deprivation around the time of birth. HIE affects 1-5/1000 live births worldwide and is associated with the development of neurological deficits ...
