introduction: several studies have indicated that late treatment of aminoguanidine (ag) reduces cerebral ischemic injuries in animal models. however, the effects of early treatment of ag on cerebral ischemic damage are not well understood. this study was designed to evaluate effect of early treatment of ag on cortex and striatum injuries as well as neurological dysfunctions in transient model o...

pervious studies have shown that pentoxifylline (ptx) has beneficial effects in reduction of stroke and brain trauma injuries in experimental animals. however, there is very little and controversial information about the effect of ptx on brain edema in cerebral ischemia. therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the effects of different doses of ptx on brain edema and neurological motor...

Introduction: Cerebral ischemia is one of the most common causes of death in human populations in the industrial communities. The need for animal models is inevitable to study the pathophysiology and treatment of cerebral ischemia in human. The current study aimed at evaluating the strengths and weaknesses of different techniques used to create ischemia in previous studies and optimizing the tr...

Background: Pentoxifylline (PTX) is used in human for intermittent claudication and cerebral vascular disorders including cerebrovascular dementia. It also inhibits the synthesis of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), which is believed to be neurotoxic in animal models of cerebral ischemia. The objective of this study was to examine the role of PTX on ischemia/reperfusion injures in rat model of t...

objective(s): some histopathological alterations take place in the ischemic regions following brain ischemia. recent studies have demonstrated some neuroprotective roles of crocin in different models of experimental cerebral ischemia. here, we investigated the probable neuroprotective effects of crocin on the brain infarction and histopathological changes after transient model of focal cerebral...
