Partial blood replacement ameliorates middle cerebral artery occlusion generated neurological aberrations by intervening TLR4 and NLRP3 cascades in rats
AbstractAcute ischemic stroke is a catastrophic medical condition that causes severe disability and mortality if the sufferer escapes treatment within a stipulated timeframe. While timely intervention with clot-bursting agents like tissue-plasminogen activators abrogates some post-stroke neurologic deficits, no neuroprotective therapy is yet promisingly addresses the post-recanalization neuroinflammation in post-stroke survivors. Herein, we investigated the effect of partial blood replacement therapy (BRT), obtained from healthy and treadmill-trained donor rats, on neurological deficits, and peripheral and central inflamma...

Resolution of Cerebral Inflammation Following Subarachnoid Hemorrhage
ConclusionsBy the herein presented molecular and histological data we provide an important indication for an incomplete resolution of inflammation within the brain parenchyma after SAH. Inflammatory resolution and the return to tissue homeostasis represent an important contribution to the disease ’s pathology influencing the impact on brain damage and outcome after SAH. Therefore, we consider a novel complementary or even superior therapeutic approach that should be carefully rethought in the management of cerebral inflammation after SAH. An acceleration of the resolution phase at the cell ular and molecular levels could...

Transient receptor potential ion channels and cerebral stroke
ConclusionsAlthough the precise mechanism of transient receptor potential ion channels in cerebral stroke is still unclear, it has the potential to be a therapeutic target for patients with stroke if developed appropriately. Hence, more research is needed to prove its efficacy in this context.

IJERPH, Vol. 19, Pages 16064: Hypocalcemia Is a Common Risk Factor for Osteoporosis in Taiwanese Patients with Cushing & rsquo;s Syndrome
Conclusions: Our study found that lower serum calcium levels were common among patients with CS and osteoporosis. Furthermore, CS patients with HF or stroke had high proportion of hypocalcemia. Therefore, these patients must pay more attention to adequate calcium supplementation and undergo the appropriate osteoporosis drug treatment to reduce the risk of subsequent fracture and disability.

Gut Microbiota in Ischemic Stroke: Role of Gut Bacteria-Derived Metabolites
AbstractIschemic stroke (IS) remains a leading cause of death and long-term disability globally. Several mechanisms including glutamate excitotoxicity, calcium overload, neuroinflammation, oxidative stress, mitochondrial damage, and apoptosis are known to be involved in the pathogenesis of IS, but the underlying pathophysiology mechanisms of IS are not fully clarified. During the past decade, gut microbiota were recognized as a key regulator to affect the health of the host either directly or via their metabolites. Recent studies indicate that gut bacterial dysbiosis is closely related to hypertension, diabetes, obesity, d...

Carotid atherosclerotic disease: A systematic review of pathogenesis and management
Brain Circ. 2022 Sep 21;8(3):127-136. doi: 10.4103/bc.bc_36_22. eCollection 2022 Jul-Sep.ABSTRACTCarotid stenosis is an important contributor to ischemic stroke risk with resultant significant impact on neurological disability and death in adults and with worldwide implications. Management of carotid stenosis is impacted by whether there are associated symptoms along with the degree of stenosis. Understanding of the pathogenesis of carotid atherosclerosis or stenosis is important in management of carotid stenosis. Atherosclerotic plaque formation is a chronic insidious process with a number of potential contributors to the...

Related Factors of Cerebral Hemorrhage after Cerebral Infarction and the Effect of Atorvastatin Combined with Intensive Nursing Care
CONCLUSION: Patients with hypertension, large infarction lesions, high NIHSS score at admission, atrial fibrillation, and small artery occlusion cerebral infarction can increase the risk of bleeding transformation in patients with cerebral infarction. For patients with bleeding transformation, atorvastatin calcium tablets combined with early intensive nursing intervention has a certain value for improving the prognosis of patients.PMID:35959354 | PMC:PMC9357761 | DOI:10.1155/2022/9546006

Exosomal microRNAs as Potential Biomarkers and Therapeutic Agents for Acute Ischemic Stroke: New Expectations
The morbidity and mortality rates of ischemic stroke (IS) are very high, and IS constitutes one of the main causes of disability and death worldwide. The pathogenesis of ischemic stroke includes excitotoxicity, calcium overload, oxygen radical injury, inflammatory reactions, necrosis/apoptosis, destruction of the blood-brain barrier (BBB), and other pathologic processes. Recent studies have shown that exosomes are critical to the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment of cerebral infarctions resulting from ischemic stroke; and there is growing interest in the role of exosomes and exosomal miRNAs in the diagnosis and treatm...

Relevance of stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1) in experimental and human stroke
Pflugers Arch. 2021 Nov 10. doi: 10.1007/s00424-021-02636-w. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTStroke represents a main cause of death and permanent disability worldwide. In the attempt to develop targeted preventive and therapeutic strategies, several efforts were performed over the last decades to identify the specific molecular abnormalities preceding cerebral ischemia and neuronal death. In this regard, mitochondrial dysfunction, autophagy, and intracellular calcium homeostasis appear important contributors to stroke development, as underscored by recent pre-clinical evidence. Intracellular calcium (Ca2+) homeostasis is re...
