Hyperglycemia in stroke and possible treatments.

Abstract: Hyperglycemia affects approximately one-third of acute ischemic stroke patients and is associated with poor clinical outcomes. In experimental and clinical stroke studies, hyperglycemia has been shown to be detrimental to the penumbral tissue for several...

The protective effect of hyperbaric oxygen and Ginkgo biloba extract on Aฮฒ25-35-induced oxidative stress and neuronal apoptosis in rats.

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is characterized by accumulation and deposition of Aฮฒ peptides in human brains. The present study aimed to determine the protective effect of HBO and EGB761 on Aฮฒ25-35 peptides induced cognitive impairment and neuronal toxicity in rats. Characteristics of AD were induced in rats by the administration of Aฮฒ25-35 in hippocampus. Rats were treated with HBO (2ATA 60min/day), EGB761 (20mg/kg/day), and the combination of HBO+EGB761 (20mg/kg/day+2ATA). The Morris water maze was used to detect the protective effects of HBO and EGB761 against cognitive impairment. The activities of SOD and GSH, the apoptosis-related genes and proteins and the apoptosis rate of hippocampus were detected. Compared to the model group, EGB761 and HBO treatments synergistically improved the escape latency. Furthermore, the activities of SOD and GSH in rat hippocampal tissue were found to have increased with a concomitant reduction in MDA levels, Bax expression, cytochrome c release, and the activity of caspase-9/3.
