British Medical Bulletin, 2000 Thrombolysis improves stroke outcome, but is applicable to a limited number of patients. Neuroprotection has the prospect to be universally offered, either alone or in combination with thrombolysis. Potential drug targets include elements of the excitotoxic glutamate cascade, calcium entry, intracellular protease activation, free radical damage, the ...

Neuroprotection by estradiol [PDF]
Progress in Neurobiology, 2001 This review highlights recent evidence from clinical and basic science studies supporting a role for estrogen in neuroprotection. Accumulated clinical evidence suggests that estrogen exposure decreases the risk and delays the onset and progression of Alzheimer's disease and schizophrenia, and may also enhance recovery from traumatic neurological injury

Hibernation, a Model of Neuroprotection [PDF]
TheScientificWorldJOURNAL, 2001 Hibernation, a natural model of tolerance to cerebral ischemia, represents a state of pronounced fluctuation in cerebral blood flow where no brain damage occurs. Numerous neuroprotective aspects may contribute in concert to such tolerance. The purpose of this study was to determine whether hibernating brain tissue is tolerant to penetrating brain ...

Mitophagy and Neuroprotection [PDF]
Trends in Molecular Medicine, 2020 Neurodegenerative diseases are strongly age-related and currently cannot be cured, with a surge of patient numbers in the coming decades in view of the emerging worldwide ageing population, bringing healthcare and socioeconomic challenges. Effective therapies are urgently needed, and are dependent on new aetiological mechanisms.

Biomedicines, 2022 The central nervous system microRNA miR-138-5p has attracted much attention in cancer research because it inhibits pro-apoptotic genes including CASP3. We hypothesize that miR-138-5p downregulation after SCI leads to overexpression of pro-apoptotic genes,

Neuroprotection by flavonoids [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2003 The high morbidity, high socioeconomic costs and lack of specific treatments are key factors that define the relevance of brain pathology for human health and the importance of research on neuronal protective agents. Epidemiological studies have shown beneficial effects of flavonoids on arteriosclerosis-related pathology in general and ...

Nature Communications, 2022 Damaged brains try to repair themselves by producing neurons in areas where neurogenesis does not normally occur. Here, the authors show that brain endothelial cells provide microvesicle-encased signals that convert parenchymal astrocytes into neural ...

Hypothermic neuroprotection [PDF]
Neurotherapeutics, 2006 The possibility that hypothermia during or after resuscitation from asphyxia at birth, or cardiac arrest in adults, might reduce evolving damage has tantalized clinicians for a very long time. It is now known that severe hypoxia-ischemia may not necessarily cause immediate cell death, but can precipitate a complex biochemical cascade leading to the ...
