Journal ArticleDOI

Cerebral preconditioning and ischaemic tolerance

TL;DR: Current understanding of how 'preconditioning' stimuli trigger a cerebroprotective state known as cerebral 'ischaemic tolerance' is summarized.
Journal ArticleDOI

Caspase inhibitor affords neuroprotection with delayed administration in a rat model of neonatal hypoxic-ischemic brain injury.

TL;DR: The findings suggest that caspase inhibitors may be able to provide benefit over a prolonged therapeutic window after hypoxic-ischemic events in the developing brain, a major contributor to static encephalopathy and cerebral palsy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Leukocyte-derived matrix metalloproteinase-9 mediates blood-brain barrier breakdown and is proinflammatory after transient focal cerebral ischemia.

TL;DR: Overall, the findings implicate leukocytes, most likely neutrophils, as a key cellular source of MMP-9, which, in turn, promotes leukocyte recruitment, causes BBB breakdown secondary to microvascular basal lamina proteolysis, and ultimately contributes to neuronal injury after transient focal stroke.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neuroprotection from ischemic brain injury by hypoxic preconditioning in the neonatal rat

TL;DR: Pre-exposure to hypoxia induces endogenous adaptive mechanisms that can protect the perinatal brain from hypoxic-ischemic injury.
