Journal ArticleDOI

Cyclo-Oxygenase-2 Gene Expression in Neurons Contributes to Ischemic Brain Damage

TL;DR: Cerebral ischemia leads to upregulation of COX-2 message, protein, and reaction products in the injured hemisphere, and the rationale for neuroprotective strategies employing COx-2 inhibitors is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI

Delayed Reduction of Ischemic Brain Injury and Neurological Deficits in Mice Lacking the Inducible Nitric Oxide Synthase Gene

TL;DR: Findings indicate that iNOS expression is one of the factors contributing to the expansion of the brain damage that occurs in the post-ischemic period and may provide a novel therapeutic strategy targeted specifically at the secondary progression of ischemic brain injury.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reduced susceptibility to ischemic brain injury and N-methyl-d-aspartate-mediated neurotoxicity in cyclooxygenase-2-deficient mice

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that COX-2-deficient mice have a significant reduction in the brain injury produced by occlusion of the middle cerebral artery, and may be a valuable therapeutic target for treatment of human stroke.
