Neuroprotection Targeting Protein Misfolding on Chronic Cerebral Hypoperfusion in the Context of Metabolic Syndrome [PDF]
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a cluster of risk factors that lead to microvascular dysfunction and chronic cerebral hypoperfusion (CCH). Long-standing reduction in oxygen and energy supply leads to brain hypoxia and protein misfolding, thereby linking CCH

Hypothermic neuroprotection [PDF]
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 ...

Mitophagy and Neuroprotection [PDF]
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.

The ability of pharmacological agents to limit secondary biochemical damage and cell death has been well established in numerous animal models of stroke, head injury, and spinal cord injury, yet the results of such neuroprotective treatment strategies in human injury have been disappointing.

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 ...

Perinatal neuroprotection [PDF]
Fetal or neonatal brain injury can result in lifelong neurologic disability. The most significant risk factor for perinatal brain injury is prematurity; however, in absolute numbers, full-term infants represent the majority of affected children.

rLOAD: does sex mediate the effect of acute antiplatelet loading on stroke outcome. [PDF]
BackgroundBiologic sex can influence response to pharmacologic therapy. The purpose of this proof-of-concept study was to evaluate the medicating effects of estrogen in the efficacy of acute antiplatelet loading therapy on stroke outcome in the rabbit ...

Phenothiazine-mediated rescue of cognition in tau transgenic mice requires neuroprotection and reduced soluble tau burden [PDF]
Background It has traditionally been thought that the pathological accumulation of tau in Alzheimer's disease and other tauopathies facilitates neurodegeneration, which in turn leads to cognitive impairment.

Moderate hypothermia within 6 h of birth plus inhaled xenon versus moderate hypothermia alone after birth asphyxia (TOBY-Xe): a proof-of-concept, open-label, randomised controlled trial [PDF]
Background Moderate cooling after birth asphyxia is associated with substantial reductions in death and disability, but additional therapies might provide further benefit.
