Mechanisms of ischemic brain damage.
In the United States stroke is the third leading cause of death and the leading cause of disability. Brain injury following stroke results from the complex interplay of multiple pathways including excitotoxicity, acidotoxicity, ionic imbalance, peri-infarct depolarization, oxidative and nitrative stress, inflammation and apoptosis. There are very few treatments for stroke and the development of...
متن کاملCooling for Acute Ischemic Brain Damage
Objective: To report results of a randomized pilot clinical feasibility trial of endovascular cooling in patients with ischemic stroke. Methods: Forty patients with ischemic stroke presenting within 12 hours of symptom onset were enrolled in the study. An endovascular cooling device was inserted into the inferior vena cava of those randomized to hypothermia. A core body temperature of 33 °C was...
متن کامل[Molecular mechanisms in liver ischemic-reperfusion injury and ischemic preconditioning].
Ischemia-reperfusion (IR) liver injury is associated with temporary clamping of hepatoduodenal ligament during liver surgery, hypoperfusion shock and graft failure after liver transplantation. Mechanisms of IR liver injury include: i) loss of calcium homeostasis, ii) reactive oxygen and nitrogen species generation, iii) changes in microcirculation, iv) Kupffer cell activation, and (v) complemen...
متن کاملMolecular genetics of alcohol-related brain damage.
AIMS In the scientific literature it has been repeatedly hypothesized that there is a heritable susceptibility to thiamine deficiency comparable to other hereditary metabolic disorders. The aim of this paper is to review the most recent knowledge on the genetic susceptibility to the development of alcohol-related Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome (WKS). METHODS A literature review was carried out l...
متن کاملMolecular Mechanisms of Recurrent Pregnancy Loss
Introduction: Pregnancy and health is the process in which the egg is fertilized and being able to survive. When pregnancy occurs under some conditions and the fetus is being at risk, it will lead to abortion that occurs involuntarily and spontaneously. Abortions that occur more than two or three times are called recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL). Various etiological factors involved in RPL, inclu...
