Progress In Cerebrovascular Disease Spontaneous Brain Hemorrhage
SPONTANEOUS BRAIN HEMORRHAGE accounts for about 10% of all strokes and is associated with a high morbidity and mortality rate." While the incidence of stroke due to occlusive cerebrovascular disease has declined the incidence of intracerebral hemorrhage has remained relatively stable. The syndromes that result from brain hemorrhage are sufficiently characterized to permit their clinical recogni...
متن کاملMitochondrial viability in mouse and human postmortem brain.
Neuronal function in the brain requires energy in the form of ATP, and mitochondria are canonically associated with ATP production in neurons. The electrochemical gradient, which underlies the mitochondrial transmembrane potential (DeltaPsi(mem)), is harnessed for ATP generation. Here we show that DeltaPsi(mem) and ATP-production can be engaged in mitochondria isolated from human brains up to 8...
متن کاملPostmortem Interval Influences α-Synuclein Expression in Parkinson Disease Brain
Duplications and triplications of the α-synuclein (SNCA) gene increase risk for PD, suggesting increased expression levels of the gene to be associated with increased PD risk. However, past SNCA expression studies in brain tissue report inconsistent results. We examined expression of the full-length SNCA transcript (140 amino acid protein isoform), as well as total SNCA mRNA levels in 165 front...
متن کاملThe blood-brain barrier and cerebrovascular pathology in Alzheimer's disease.
The pathology of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is not limited to amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles. Recent evidence suggests that more than 30% of AD cases exhibit cerebrovascular pathology, which involves the cellular elements that represent the blood-brain barrier. Certain vascular lesions such as microvascular degeneration affecting the cerebral endothelium, cerebral amyloid angiopathy ...
متن کاملBlood-brain barrier breakdown in acute and chronic cerebrovascular disease.
Disruptions of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and edema formation both play key roles in the development of neurological dysfunction in acute and chronic cerebral ischemia. Animal studies have revealed the molecular cascades that are initiated with hypoxia/ischemia in the cells forming the neurovascular unit and that contribute to cell death. Matrix metalloproteinases cause reversible degradatio...
