    Overweight worsens apoptosis, neuroinflammation and blood-brain barrier damage after hypoxic ischemia in neonatal brain through JNK hyperactivation

    Apoptosis, neuroinflammation and blood-brain barrier (BBB) damage affect the susceptibility of the develo** brain to hypoxic-ischemic (HI) insults. c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) is an important mediator of i...
