The therapeutic potential of human umbilical cord blood transplantation for neonatal hypoxic-ischemic brain injury and ischemic stroke.
Human umbilical cord blood (HUCB) cells are rich source of immature stem cells, which have the potential to repair lost tissue. Intractable central nervous system (CNS) disorders are important targets for regenerative medicine, and the application of HUCB cells is being investigated in animal models of CNS disorders. Transplantation of HUCB has induced functional improvements in these animal mo...
متن کاملHypoxic-Ischemic Brain Injury in Piglets
Background and Purpose: The excitatory amino acid inhibitor MK-801 has been shown in many animals species to protect against hypoxic-ischemic brain injury. We sought to determine whether hypoxic-ischemic injury to the newborn pig's brain could be prevented by the use of MK-801. Methods: Hypoxic-ischemic injury to the brain was induced in forty 0-3-day-old piglets. They were randomized to receiv...
متن کاملTherapeutic Window for Cycloheximide Treatment after Hypoxic-Ischemic Brain Injury in Neonatal Rats
We have previously shown that cycloheximide significantly inhibited apoptosis, and reduced ensuing cerebral infarction in a newborn rat model of cerebral hypoxiaischemia. This study was performed to determine the therapeutic window for cycloheximide therapy. Seven day-old newborn rat pups were subjected to 100 min of 8% oxygen following a unilateral carotid artery ligation, and cycloheximide wa...
متن کاملNeuroprotective agents for neonatal hypoxic-ischemic brain injury.
Hypoxic-ischemic (H-I) brain injury in newborns is a major cause of morbidity and mortality that claims thousands of lives each year. In this review, we summarize the promising neuroprotective agents tested on animal models and pilot clinical studies of neonatal H-I brain injury according to the different phases of the disease. These agents target various phases of injury including the early ph...
متن کاملThe neuroprotective roles of BDNF in hypoxic ischemic brain injury.
Hypoxia-ischemia (H/I) brain injury results in various degrees of damage to the body, and the immature brain is particularly fragile to oxygen deprivation. Hypothermia and erythropoietin (EPO) have long been known to be neuroprotective in ischemic brain injury. Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) has recently been recognized as a potent modulator capable of regulating a wide repertoire of ...
