Authors: Deng G, Qiu Z, Li D, Fang Y, Zhang S
Abstract
Guanosine (GUO) is neuroprotective when administered acutely for the treatment of cerebral ischemia. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether delayed administration of GUO improved long‑term functional recovery following stroke, as well as to explore the potential underlying mechanisms.

Modulators of microglia activation and polarization in ischemic stroke (Review).
Authors: Jiang CT, Wu WF, Deng YH, Ge JW
Abstract
Ischemic stroke is one of the leading causes of mortality and disability worldwide. However, there is a current lack of effective therapies available. As the resident macrophages of the brain, microglia can monitor the microenvironment and initiate immune responses. In response to various brain injuries, such as ischemic stroke, microglia are activated and polarized into the proinflammatory M1 phenotype or the anti‑inflammatory M2 phenotype. The immunomodulatory molecules, such as cytokines and chemokines, generated by these microglia are closely associated with s...

Electroacupuncture promotes neural stem cell proliferation and neurogenesis in the dentate gyrus of rats following stroke via upregulation of Notch1 expression.
In conclusion, to the best of our knowledge, the present study was the first to demonstrate that EA treatment promoted NSC proliferation and neurogenesis in the DG area through the upregulation of Notch signaling following a stroke; therefore, EA may be a useful novel therapeutic strategy in future stroke treatment.

Temporal profiles of blood pressure, circulating nitric oxide, and adrenomedullin as predictors of clinical outcome in acute ischemic stroke patients.
Authors: Serrano-Ponz M, Rodrigo-Gasqué C, Siles E, Martínez-Lara E, Ochoa-Callejero L, Martínez A
Abstract
Stroke remains an important health and social challenge. The present study investigated whether blood pressure (BP) parameters and circulating levels of nitric oxide metabolites (NOx) and adrenomedullin (AM) may predict clinical outcomes of stroke. Patients (n=76) diagnosed with acute ischemic stroke were admitted to the stroke unit and clinical history data and monitored parameters were recorded. Blood plasma was collected at days 1, 2, and 7 to measure NOx and AM levels. Infarct volume, neurological sev...

Cocaine ‑ and amphetamine‑regulated transcript (CART) is associated with dopamine and is protective against ischemic stroke.
Cocaine‑ and amphetamine‑regulated transcript (CART) is associated with dopamine and is protective against ischemic stroke.
Mol Med Rep. 2018 Jul 19;:
Authors: Lin L, Sun D, Chang J, Ma M, Zhou X, Zhao M, Li J
Abstract
Cocaine and amphetamine‑regulated transcript (CART) is a neuropeptide that can protect brains against ischemic injury. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of the CART within ischemic stroke and it possible mechanism. The expression levels of dopamine (DA) and CART in ischemic brain tissues of mice were measured following middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCA...

Circulating mRNA and microRNA profiling analysis in patients with ischemic stroke.
Authors: Sun S, Li L, Dong L, Cheng J, Zhao C, Bao C, Wang H
Abstract
To provide insight into molecular diagnosis and individualized treatment of ischemic stroke (IS), several available datasets in IS were analyzed to identify the differentially expressed genes and microRNAs (miRNAs). Series matrix files from GSE22255 and GSE16561 (mRNA profiles), a well as GSE110993 (miRNA profile) were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus database. System‑level clustering was performed with GeneCluster 3.0 software, and gene annotation and pathway enrichment were performed with gene ontology analysis and Database for Ann...

MicroRNA-126/stromal cell-derived factor 1/C-X-C chemokine receptor type 7 signaling pathway promotes post-stroke angiogenesis of endothelial progenitor cell transplantation.
Authors: Shan C, Ma Y
Abstract
Stroke is the most common cause of mortality worldwide. Post-stroke angiogenesis is of great significance to the treatment of strokes. The aim of the present study was to investigate the mechanism underlying the angiogenesis-promoting effect of microRNA‑126 (miR‑126)‑associated signaling pathways using a stroke model in vivo and a cell migration model in vitro. Bone marrow‑derived endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) were extracted and identified using a density gradient method. Reverse transcription‑quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT‑qPCR) was performed to examin...

Overexpression of EphB4 promotes neurogenesis, but inhibits neuroinflammation in mice with acute ischemic stroke
In conclusion, this study contributes to the current understanding of the mechanisms of EphB4 in exerting neurorestorative effects and may recommend a potential new strategy for ischemic stroke treatment.PMID:34476505 | DOI:10.3892/mmr.2021.12396

Prehypertensive treatment with losartan, however not amlodipine, leads to long‑term effects on blood pressure and reduces the risk of stroke in spontaneously hypertensive stroke‑prone rats.
Authors: Zhang L, He D, Lin J
Abstract
The current study investigated the efficacy of losartan and amlodipine in protecting spontaneously hypertensive stroke‑prone (SHRSP) rats against the risk of stroke. SHRSP rats were administered losartan, amlodipine or the vehicle for 6 weeks. There were no significant differences in systolic blood pressure (SBP) in rats treated with losartan or amlodipine, however, following drug withdrawal, rats treated with losartan maintained reduced SBP for a longer time compared with rats treated with amlodipine. In addition, rats treated with losartan exhibited thinner vascular walls...

Sodium tanshinone IIA sulfonate improves inflammation, aortic endothelial cell apoptosis, disseminated intravascular coagulation and multiple organ damage in a rat heat stroke model.
Authors: Chen F, Li H, Zhu G, Chen X, Tang Z
Abstract
The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of sodium tanshinone IIA sulfonate (STS) on inflammatory responses, aortic endothelial cell apoptosis, disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) and multiple organ damage in an animal model of classic heat stroke (CHS). The rats in the heat stroke (HS) and STS‑treated heat stroke (STS‑HS) groups were placed into a pre‑warmed animal temperature controller (ATC) at 35˚C. The moment at which the rectal temperature reached 43.5˚C was considered as the time of onset of HS. In the HS groups, the ra...

mTOR is involved in stroke-induced seizures and the anti-seizure effect of mild hypothermia.
Authors: Yang GS, Zhou XY, An XF, Liu XJ, Zhang YJ, Yu D
Abstract
Stroke is considered an underlying etiology of the development of seizures. Stroke leads to glucose and oxygen deficiency in neurons, resulting in brain dysfunction and injury. Mild hypothermia is a therapeutic strategy to inhibit stroke‑induced seizures, which may be associated with the regulation of energy metabolism of the brain. Mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling and solute carrier family 2, facilitated glucose transporter member (GLUT)‑1 are critical for energy metabolism. Furthermore, mTOR overactivation and GLUT‑1 deficiency...
