Microarray Data Analysis of Molecular Mechanism Associated with Stroke Progression
This study aimed to explore the molecular mechanism of stroke and provide a new target in the clinical management. The miRNA dataset GSE97532 (3 blood samples from middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) and 3 from sham operation) and mRNA dataset GSE97533 (3 blood samples from MCAO and 3 from sham operation) were obtained from GEO database. Differentially expressed mRNA (DEGs) and miRNAs (DEMIRs) were screened out between MCAO and sham operation groups. Then, DEMIR –DEG interactions were explored and visualized using Cytoscape software. Moreover, the enrichment analysis was performed on these DEMIRs and DEGs. Furthermor...

Combined Gene Therapy to Reduce the Neuronal Damage in the Mouse Model of Focal Ischemic Injury
AbstractResearch into stroke is driven by frustration over the limited available therapeutics. Targeting a single aspect of this multifactorial disease contributes to the therapeutic boundaries. To overcome this, we devised a novel multifactorial-cocktail treatment, using lentiviruses encoding excitatory amino acid transporter 2 (EAAT2(, glutamate dehydrogenase 2 (GDH2), and nuclear factor E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) genes, that acts synergistically to address the effected excito-oxidative axis. Here, we used the vasoconstrictor endothelin-1 (ET-1) to induce focal ischemic injury in mice by direct injection into the striatu...
