Ischemic Stroke, Lessons from the Past towards Effective Preclinical Models

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors focused on recent upgrades of in vitro and in vivo stroke models for more accurate and effective evaluation of therapeutic strategies: from spheroids to organoids, in vitro models that include all brain cell types and allow high throughput drug screening, to advancements in in vivo preclinical mouse stroke models to mimic the clinical reality in surgical procedures, postsurgical care, and functional assessment.

Alzheimer's Disease and Stroke: A Tangled Neurological Conundrum

TL;DR: Therapeutic and management modalities already in use for AD were put together, and the possibility of early intervention in such patients benefitting cerebrovascular pathologies, particularly stroke-related, was explored.
Journal ArticleDOI

Protective effect of an ethanol extract mixture of Vitis amurensis, Aralia cordata, and Glycyrrhizae radix against ischemia-induced brain injury in rats and excitotoxicity in cultured neurons

TL;DR: The results suggest that the neuroprotective effect of SSB against ischemia-induced brain damage might be associated with its anti-excitotoxic activity and that SSB may have a therapeutic role for prevention of neurodegeneration in stroke.

Wireless multi-channel near-infrared spectroscopy for monitoring middle cerebral artery occlusion

TL;DR: This study attempts to miniaturize NIRs system, and finds meaningful information related to cerebra ischemia from the relative concentrations of HbO2 and HbR measured by using the proposed N IRs.

Atherosclerosis — An Inflammatory Disease

TL;DR: Atherosclerosis is an inflammatory disease as discussed by the authors, and it is a major cause of death in the United States, Europe, and much of Asia, despite changes in lifestyle and use of new pharmacologic approaches to lower plasma cholesterol concentrations.

Direct Proinflammatory Effect of C-Reactive Protein on Human Endothelial Cells

TL;DR: The hypothesis that CRP may play a direct role in promoting the inflammatory component of atherosclerosis and present a potential target for the treatment of Atherosclerosis is supported.

p53 Has a Direct Apoptogenic Role at the Mitochondria

TL;DR: Evidence that p53 translocation to the mitochondria occurs in vivo in irradiated thymocytes is provided and it is shown that the p53 protein can directly induce permeabilization of the outer mitochondrial membrane by forming complexes with the protective BclXL and Bcl2 proteins, resulting in cytochrome c release.

Glutamate-mediated astrocyte-neuron signalling.

TL;DR: Astrocytes regulate neuronal calcium levels through the calcium-dependent release of glutamate, and an NMDA (N-methyl-d-aspartate) receptor-mediated increase in neuronal calcium is demonstrated.
