Neuroprotection against surgically induced brain injury.
BACKGROUND Neurosurgical procedures are carried out routinely in health institutions across the world. A key issue to be considered during neurosurgical interventions is that there is always an element of inevitable brain injury that results from the procedure itself because of the unique nature of the nervous system. Brain tissue at the periphery of the operative site is at risk of injury by v...
متن کاملBrain Sciences Special Issue: Neuroprotection against Ischemic Brain Injury
It was my great pleasure to have acted as the guest editor for the Brain Sciences Special Issue on Neuroprotection against Ischemic Brain Injury. This Special Issue consists of a total of 18 articles covering a range of topics with the purpose of providing new knowledge and exploring novel interventions that one day may be used to better protect and repair the brain after ischemia. [...].
متن کاملNeuroprotection of Osthole against Cerebral Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury through an Anti-apoptotic Pathway in Rats.
Cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is a major cause of acute brain injury. The pathogenetic mechanisms underlying I/R injury involve apoptosis, inflammation and oxidative stress. Osthole-a plant coumarin compound-has been reported to protect against focal cerebral I/R-induced injury in rats. However, the mechanism remains unknown. Here we hypothesize that osthole acts through inhibition...
متن کاملQuantitative assessment of neuroprotection against NMDA-induced brain injury.
In immature rodent brain, unilateral intrastriatal injections of selected excitatory amino acid (EAA) receptor agonists, such as N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA), produce prominent ipsilateral forebrain lesions. In Postnatal Day (PND) 7 rats that receive a right intrastriatal injection of NMDA (25 nmol) and are sacrificed 5 days later, there is a considerable and consistent reduction in the weight o...
متن کاملEstrogen provides neuroprotection against brain edema and blood brain barrier disruption through both estrogen receptors α and β following traumatic brain injury
Objective(s):Estrogen (E2) has neuroprotective effects on blood-brain-barrier (BBB) after traumatic brain injury (TBI). In order to investigate the roles of estrogen receptors (ERs) in these effects, ER-α antagonist (MPP) and, ER-β antagonist (PHTPP), or non-selective estrogen receptors antagonist (ICI 182780) were administered. Materials and Methods: Ovariectomized rats were divided into 10 gr...
