Overexpressing Glyoxalase 1 Attenuates Acute Hyperglycemia –Exacerbated Neurological Deficits of Ischemic Stroke in Mice

This study investigated the therapeutic effects of the overexpression of glyoxalase 1 (GLO1), a detoxifying enzyme of glycot oxins, on acute hyperglycemia–aggravated ischemic brain injury.  In present study, AAV-mediated GLO1 overexpression reduced infarct volume and edema level but did not improve neurofunctional recovery in the mice with MCAO.
