Neurogenesis in Stroke Treatment
نویسندگان
چکیده
Findings of stroke-induced neurogenesis in the adult brain have raised hopes that amplification of endogenous neurogenesis contributes to improvement of neurological outcomes. This article briefly reviews stroke-induced neurogenesis and emerging potential therapies aimed at amplification of endogenous neurogenesis during stroke recovery.

The Effect of TGF-alpha on Neurogenesis in Subventricular Zone of Rat Brain after Ischemia-Reperfusion
Introduction: Stroke is the third important reason of death in adults and an important cause of adult disability. Previous studies suggest that TGF-alpha can induce neurogenesis after stroke. Here in, we studied neurogenesis effects of the TGF-alpha on subventricular zone following ischemia-reperfusion. Male wistar rats (250-300 g) were divided into ischemia and treatment groups. After inductio...
متن کاملNeurogenesis and stroke.
Stroke stimulates neurogenesis in select regions of the adult brain, and the newborn neurons that result can migrate to areas of ischemic injury, where they may have the capacity to enhance brain recovery. These observations suggest that stroke-induced neurogenesis may contribute to endogenous brain repair after stroke, and that the mechanisms that underlie neurogenesis may represent potential ...
متن کاملImpact of trichostatin A and sodium valproate treatment on post-stroke neurogenesis and behavioral outcomes in immature mice
Stroke in the neonatal brain frequently results in neurologic impairments including cognitive disability. We investigated the effect of long-term sodium valproate (valproate) and trichostatin A (TSA) treatment upon post-stroke neurogenesis in the dentate gyrus (DG) of stroke-injured immature mice. Decreased or abnormal integration of newborn DG neurons into hippocampal circuits can result in im...
متن کاملAnti-Nogo-A Immunotherapy Does Not Alter Hippocampal Neurogenesis after Stroke in Adult Rats
Ischemic stroke is a leading cause of adult disability, including cognitive impairment. Our laboratory has previously shown that treatment with function-blocking antibodies against the neurite growth inhibitory protein Nogo-A promotes functional recovery after stroke in adult and aged rats, including enhancing spatial memory performance, for which the hippocampus is critically important. Since ...

Introdution: Stroke is one of the most common diseases caused by occlusion or rupture of blood vessels in brain. It brings heavily loads for families and societies. Although some new strategies including treatment of tissue plasminogen activator have been applied in the clinic, these methods do not have perfect effect. Accordingly, more effective therapeutic strategies need to be developed...
