During an ischemic stroke, blood vessels in the brain are blocked or narrowed. During a hemorrhagic stroke, there's bleeding ...

Brain injuries are a leading cause of death and long-term disability in infants. Among the most common is neonatal ...

Here, we highlight the complex molecular signaling that takes place in neurons, glial cells and the blood-brain barrier following ischemic insult. We also describe the evidence of TRPM2 ...

Brain injury resulting from hypoxia (oxygen deprivation) or ischemia (restricted blood flow) represents a major challenge in medical research and clinical ...

A blood test may rapidly distinguish brain bleeds from clot-caused strokes, even before people with stroke symptoms reach the ...

Propranolol, a beta blocker medication used for treating high blood pressure and preventing migraines, may lower ischemic stroke risk in women who experience migraines frequently.

People with brain bleeds had nearly 7 times higher blood levels of a specific brain protein, called glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), than those who had strokes caused by clots in a study ...

Every 40 seconds, someone in the United States has a stroke. For survivors of the most common type of stroke, called an ...

A rapid blood test could speed treatment for people who have suffered a stroke related to brain bleeding, a new study says.

Targeting Brain Hyperexcitability An ischemic stroke occurs when blood flow to part of the brain is blocked, usually due to a blood clot or narrowing of blood vessels. This deprives brain cells of ...

Researchers at Gladstone Institutes and SanBio demonstrated that a stem cell therapy, effective even a month after stroke, restored brain function in rats by reversing hyperexcitability and enhancing ...
