Donepezil promotes neurogenesis via Src signaling pathway in a rat model of chronic cerebral hypoperfusion.
In this study, we investigated whether donepezil could promote SVZ neurogenesis in chronic cerebral hypoperfusion (CCH) injury via Src signaling pathway. In the bilateral carotid artery occlusion (2VO) rat model, we observed more nestin/5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BrdU)-positive cells and doublecortin (DCX)/BrdU-positive cells in the SVZ than that in the sham group. Further, donepezil obviously improved neurologic function after 2VO, induced the greater number of SVZ proliferative NSCs and neuroblasts, and elevated levels of Src, p-FGFR1, p-EGFR, p-Akt and p-Raf in ipsilateral SVZ. Lastly, Src inhibitor KX-01 abolished the be...

Acute aortic occlusion in a patient without risk factors
A 94-year-old female with a history of ischemic stroke, mild right hemiparesis, vascular dementia, breast cancer with right mastectomy, colon cancer resulting in colectomy, hyperlipidemia, and hypertension presented to the emergency department (ED) with bilateral leg pain. Patient had no smoking history, and her medications included Donepezil, Aspirin, Citalopram, Losartan, and Pantoprazole.
