Intravenous Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor Reduces Infarct Size and Counterregulates Bax and Bcl-2 Expression After Temporary Focal Cerebral Ischemia

TL;DR: One possible mechanism of action of neuroprotection of BDNF after focal ischemia appears to be counterregulation of Bax/Bcl-2 proteins within the ischemic penumbra within animals treated with intravenous BDNF.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor Treatment and Forced Arm Use on Functional Motor Recovery After Small Cortical Ischemia

TL;DR: Postischemic intravenous BDNF treatment improves functional motor recovery after photothrombotic stroke and induces widespread neuronal remodeling.
Journal ArticleDOI

Amplification of the epidermal-growth-factor-receptor gene correlates with different growth behaviour in human glioblastoma.

TL;DR: There was a statistically significant difference in the mean latency period until tumour regrowth of patients suffering from GBM with and without EGF‐receptor‐gene amplification (9 weeks vs 32 weeks).
Journal ArticleDOI

Antitumor Vaccination of Patients With Glioblastoma Multiforme: A Pilot Study to Assess Feasibility, Safety, and Clinical Benefit

TL;DR: Postoperative vaccination with virus-modified autologous tumor cells seems to be feasible and safe and to improve the prognosis of patients with glioblastomas, substantiated by the observed antitumor immune response.
Journal ArticleDOI

JUN, FOS, KROX, and CREB transcription factor proteins in the rat cortex: basal expression and induction by spreading depression and epileptic seizures.

TL;DR: Topical KCl induced cortical spreading depression and systemic injection of bicuculline evoked generalized tonic‐clonic seizures, and expression patterns were studied in untreated rats.
