Acute Hyperglycemia Does Not Affect Brain Swelling or Infarction Volume After Middle Cerebral Artery Occlusion in Rats
Stroke disproportionally affects diabetic and hyperglycemic patients with increased incidence and is associated with higher morbidity and mortality due to brain swelling. In this study, the intraluminal suture...

Chapter
Neurovascular Repair After Stroke
Hemorrhagic strokes result from vessel rupture, increasing bleeding in the surrounding areas, and damaging adjacent tissues. The components of the blood and heme breakdown products induce toxicity, inflammatio...

Statin-Induced T-Lymphocyte Modulation and Neuroprotection Following Experimental Subarachnoid Hemorrhage
Introduction: Statins influence immune system activities through mechanisms independent of their lipid-lowering properties. T cells can be subdivided based on cytokine secretion patterns into two s...

Magnesium in Subarachnoid Hemorrhage: From Bench to Bedside
Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) is a devastating disease responsible for 5 % of stroke cases and affects approximately 28,000 North Americans annually. Even though its incidence is dwarfed by other s...

Multiple hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO) expands the therapeutic window in acute spinal cord injury in rats
Hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO) therapy has been reported to improve neurological recovery following spinal cord injury (SCI). In the present study, we examined whether multiple HBO expands the therapeutic window...

Apoptosis, blood-brain barrier, and subarachnoid hemorrhage
This study was undertaken to investigate the role of apoptosis in the integrity of blood-brain barrier (BBB) in subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). BBB permeability changes were examined and found increased on day ...

Heat shock proteins expression in brain stem after subarachnoid hemorrhage in rats
The pathogenesis of brain damage after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) especially at molecular or gene level remains unclear. We used complimentary deoxyribonucleic acid (cDNA) macroarray technique and compared ...

Metabolic Alterations in Cerebrospinal Fluid from Double Hemorrhage Model of Dogs
Even though cerebral vasospasm after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) causes cerebral ischemia or infarction, the metabolic alterations in cerebrospinal fluids (CSF) after SAH have not been studied. This study wa...

Chapter and Conference Paper
Role of Tyrosine Kinase in Fibroblast Compaction and Cerebral Vasospasm
Hemolysate, a proposed causative agent for cerebral vasospasm following subarachnoid hemorrhage, produces contraction of cerebral arteries by activation of tyrosine kinases. In addition, hemolysate accelerates...

Oxyhemoglobin Produces Necrosis in Cultured Smooth Muscle Cells
Object. Myonecrosis in the tunica media, which is defined morphologically, is one of the most striking alterations in the cerebral arterial wall following subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). In this s...
