introduction: following a traumatic brain injury (tbi), the excessive release of proinflammatory cytokines is major cause of cerebral edema that can cause permanent neuronal loss. this study examined the changes in brain concentrations of proinflammatory cytokines il-1, il-6, tnf-α and tgf- after different doses of estrogen or progesterone treatment in brain-injured rats at 6 and 24 h post-in...

Introduction: Following a traumatic brain injury (TBI), the excessive release of proinflammatory cytokines is major cause of cerebral edema that can cause permanent neuronal loss. This study examined the changes in brain concentrations of proinflammatory cytokines IL-1, IL-6, TNF-α and TGF- after different doses of estrogen or progesterone treatment in brain-injured rats at 6 and 24 h post...

Aims:Memory deficit is the most visible symptom of cerebral ischemia. The hippocampus is sensitive against cerebral ischemia. Oxidative stress and inflammation are involved in the pathological process after cerebral ischemic injury. Paroxetine has anti-oxidative and anti-inflammatory effects. In this study the effect of paroxetine on memory deficit after cerebral ischemia was investigated. Meth...

Introduction: Arterial hypertension is one of the causes of stroke, and as one of the vasculotoxic conditions intensifies ischemic stroke complications. The aim of the present study was to analyze the effects of short-term cerebral hypertension on ischemia/reperfusion injury and pathogenesis of ischemic stroke. Methods: The experiments were performed on three groups of rats (N=36) Sham, cont...

objective: it is generally agreed that most of the phenomena observed during brain ischemia and reperfusion can be explained by the damage to membrane structure. oxidative stress is resulted in an imbalance between high consumption of oxygen and low levels of endogenous antioxidants. it is known that gallic acid (ga) is a strong antioxidant. the present study was carried out to evaluate the eff...

Background: Cerebral ischemic reperfusion injury (CI/RI) is a common cerebrovascular disease with high morbidity and disability that threatens human health. This study was conducted to explore the effects of dexmedetomidine (Dex) on c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) pathway in CI/RI, provide theoretical basis for recovery brain function after cerebral ischemia.
