ellagic acid/뇌졸중

An oxygen-glucose deprivation and reoxygenation model in primary cultured rat cortical neurons was developed for this study to investigate the effects of ellagic acid (EA), a low-molecular-weight polyphenol, on neuron cells and their function, and to evaluate whether EA can be safely utilized by

OBJECTIVE Global cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (GCIR) causes disturbances in brain functions as well as other organs such as kidney. Our aim was to evaluate the protective effects of ellagic acid (EA) on certain renal disfunction after GCIR. METHODS Adult male Wistar rats (n=32, 250-300 g) were

Impairment of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) activity is implicated in the pathogenesis of endothelial dysfunction in many diseases including ischaemic stroke. The modulation of eNOS during and/or following ischaemic injury often represents a futile compensatory mechanism due to a

BACKGROUND Ischemic stroke is a common cause of human disability and death. Animal models of focal cerebral ischemia are widely utilized to mimic human ischemic stroke. Although models of focal cerebral ischemia have been well established, very few evidence is based on triggering the intrinsic

BACKGROUND Global cerebral ischemia (GCIR) arises in patients that are shown a variety of clinical difficulty including cardiac arrest, asphyxia, and shock. In spite of advances in understanding of the brain, ischemia and protective effects to improve ischemic injury still remain unknown. The aim of

FXIa (factor XIa) induces clot formation, and human congenital FXI deficiency protects against venous thromboembolism and stroke. In contrast, the role of FXI in hemostasis is rather small, especially compared with FIX deficiency. Little is known about the cause of the

Over activity of Glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β), a serine/threonine-protein kinase has been implicated in a number of diseases including stroke, type II diabetes and Alzheimer disease (AD). This study aimed to find novel inhibitors of GSK-3β from phyto-constituents of Melissa
