The aim of the study is to analyze current views concerning interrelations between state intestinal microbiota and course ischemic-reperfusion brain injury. 
 Conclusion. Literary data are indicative disputable scientific opinions existing nowadays role dysbacteriosis (neuroprotective or neurodegenerative) in ischemic injuries. Meanwhile, studies common evidenced disturbances T-cell homeos...

aim: oxidative stress plays a crucial role in the pathophysiology of ischemic stroke. since water-solublefullerene derivatives act as the potent scavenger of oxygen free radicals in biological systems, we aimedto investigate the possible protective effects of fullerol nanoparticles on brain infarction and edema intransient model of focal cerebral ischemia in rat.materials & methods: experiment ...

Introduction: Recent studies have shown that intermittent normobaric hyperoxia (HO) protects the rat brain from ischemia reperfusion injury. However, the exact mechanism of this kind of protection in vivo is not known. In this study, the effect of HO on expression of TNFR1 and TNFR2 in a stroke model was investigated. Methods: In this experimental study, rats were divided into 4 groups: no...

Background: Among different mechanisms, oxidative stress has a possible role in neural injury in cerebrovascular events. Objectives: Assessment the oxidants-antioxidants imbalance in ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes. Materials and Methods: Serum level of malondialdehyde, the main marker of lipid peroxidation, and total antioxidant capacity were measured in a group of 48 stroke patients consis...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE A short duration of ischemia (ie, ischemic preconditioning [PC]) can provide significant brain protection to subsequent ischemic events (ie, ischemic tolerance [IT]). The present series of studies was conducted to characterize the temporal pattern of a PC paradigm, to systematically evaluate the importance of protein synthesis in PC-induced IT, and to explore candidate ge...

Ischemic stroke accounts for about 87 percent of all cases. It occurs as a result of an obstruction within a vessel of the brain and sudden loss of blood circulation to the corresponding area resulting in the loss of brain function. It is caused by thrombotic or embolic occlusion of an artery and is more common than hemorrhagic stroke. We know that most of the injuries after an acute ischemic s...

PURPOSE Hypothermia has been shown to be neuroprotective in the therapy of ischemic stroke in the brain. To date no studies exist on the level of the inner retina and it is unclear if hypothermia would prolong the ischemic tolerance time of retinal ganglion cells, which are decisive in many ischemic retinopathies. METHODS Bovine eyes were enucleated and stored either at 21°C or 37°C for 100 o...

Introduction: There are several different molecular pathways in tissue damage by Ischemic Brain Injury. The use of antioxidants and free radical scavengers are a matter of attention by some researchers. Crocus sativus (saffron) is used previously for protective effects in ischemia state by some researchers. To assess pathologic aspects of neuroprotection of saffron in some susceptible brain are...
