Pathophysiology of cerebral ischemia.
The purpose of this manuscript is to briefly review the pathophysiology of cerebral ischemia. Ischemic thresholds are well-defined in lower animals. The concept of the ischemic penumbra may include regions of brain around deeper regions of ischemia but has also been defined in terms of brain salvageable by reperfusion or by pharmacological therapies. The principal pathophysiological processes i...
متن کاملMolecular Pathophysiology of Cerebral Hemorrhage
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is an often fatal type of stroke that kills 30 000 people annually in the United States. If the patient survives the ictus, then the resulting hematoma within brain parenchyma triggers a series of adverse events causing secondary insults and severe neurological deficits. This article discusses selected aspects of secondary brain injury after ICH and outlines key m...
متن کاملMolecular pathophysiology of cerebral edema.
Advancements in molecular biology have led to a greater understanding of the individual proteins responsible for generating cerebral edema. In large part, the study of cerebral edema is the study of maladaptive ion transport. Following acute CNS injury, cells of the neurovascular unit, particularly brain endothelial cells and astrocytes, undergo a program of pre- and post-transcriptional change...
متن کاملPathophysiology and treatment of focal cerebral ischemia. Part I: Pathophysiology. (1992).
This article examines the pathophysiology of lesions caused by focal cerebral ischemia. Ischemia due to middle cerebral artery occlusion encompasses a densely ischemic focus and a less densely ischemic penumbral zone. Cells in the focus are usually doomed unless reperfusion is quickly instituted. In contrast, although the penumbra contains cells "at risk," these may remain viable for at least 4...
متن کاملPathophysiology of focal cerebral ischemia: a therapeutic perspective.
The pathophysiology of cerebral ischemia is best understood in animal models of stroke. Within minutes of interrupted blood flow, mitochondria are deprived of substrate, which prevents adenosine triphosphate generation and results in membrane depolarization. This leads to increased intracellular calcium and sodium concentration followed by generation of free radicals and initiation of apoptosis...
