Vascular cognitive impairment has been related to dysfunction of the central cholinergic system. Studies exploring the putative relationship between vascular cognitive impairment and cholinergic dysfunction have largely been aimed at symptomatic cholinergic treatment rather than focusing on

OBJECTIVE Edaravone (MCI-186) is a newly developed antioxidative radical scavenger for the treatment of acute cerebral infarction, exerting neuroprotective effects against ischemic insult. The neuroprotective effects of edaravone on pilocarpine-induced seizures in rats were

Status epilepticus induced by pilocarpine in rats induces massive tissue damage comprising neurons and astrocytes (incomplete infarction) in substantia nigra pars reticulata (SNR) and in basal cortical areas (BCTX). Immunohistochemistry with a polyclonal antiserum and a monoclonal antibody to GFAP

Sublethal stress stimuli such as systemic endotoxin treatment can induce tolerance of the brain to subsequent ischemic stress, which results in a decreased infarct size. Based on this evidence, we hypothesized that lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced preconditioning could protect hippocampal neurons in

Our recent studies have shown that, as indicated by vagal stimulation, an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor donepezil, an anti-Alzheimer's disease drug, prevents progression of heart failure in rats with myocardial infarction, and activates a common cell survival signal shared by acetylcholine (ACh) in

Association of migraine and tonic pupil has been reported very rarely. We reported a young female with symptoms of migraine who developed a mydriatic pupil in one of her attacks. The pupil was unresponsive to light with little response to near reflex. In 0.125% pilocarpine test affected pupil

A 21-year-old woman seen in this clinic with non-reactive mydriasis in the right eye that contracted with 1% pilocarpine. Cranial angio-CT and 1.5 T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) did not detect any disease. Given a subsequent limitation of adduction, supraduction, and infarction of the right eye,

Immunohistochemistry with monoclonal antibodies against neurofilament (NF) proteins of middle and high molecular weight class, NF-M and NF-H, was used to study axonal injury in the borderzone of focal lesions in rats. Focal injury in the cortex was produced by infusion of lactate at acid pH or by

We investigated the effects of exposure to maternal convulsive seizures in utero on the behavior of offspring. An epilepsy model was induced in female rats by administration of pilocarpine. Seizure frequency was evaluated for 60 days. The rats were then allowed to mate, and seizure frequency during

The present study evaluated electrocardiographic alterations in rats with epilepsy submitted to an acute myocardial infarction (AMI) model induced by cardiac ischemia and reperfusion. Rats were randomly divided into two groups: control (n=12) and epilepsy (n=14). It was found that rats with epilepsy

Perinatal arterial stroke is the most frequent form of cerebral infarction in children. Neonatal seizures are the most frequent symptom during the neonatal period. The current management of perinatal stroke is based on supportive care. It is currently unknown if treatment of the seizures modifies

Coronary arterial spasm plays an important role iun the production not only of variant angina but, also, of resting angina other than variant angina, of some exertional angina, and of some acute myocardial infarction. Coronary arterial spasm is most likely to occur at rest, particularly from
