In designing the anaesthetic plan for patients undergoing surgery, the choice of anaesthetic
agent may often appear irrelevant and the best results obtained by the use of a technique or …

Alzheimer's disease (AD), an insidious and progressive neurodegenerative disorder
accounting for the vast majority of dementia, is characterized by global cognitive decline and …

Background The common inhalation anesthetic isoflurane has previously been reported to
enhance the aggregation and cytotoxicity of the Alzheimer disease-associated amyloid beta …

In this study, we determined whether repeated brief isoflurane (Iso) anesthesia induces
ischemic tolerance to focal cerebral ischemia in a dose-response manner and whether the …

This review will focus on inhalational anesthetic neuroprotection during cerebral ischemia
and inhalational anesthetic preconditioning before ischemic brain injury. The limitations and …

The neuroprotective properties for certain medical gases have been observed for decades,
leading to extensive research that has been widely reported and continues to garner …

Propofol and sevoflurane are commonly used drugs in pediatric anesthesia. Exposure of
newborn rats to a variety of anesthetics has been shown to induce apoptotic …

The behavioral and histological effects of the lateral fluid percussion (LFP) brain injury
model were compared with the weight drop impact-acceleration model with 10 min of …

Background and Purpose—Isoflurane, administered before or during cerebral ischemia, has
been shown to exhibit neuroprotection in animal models of ischemic stroke. However, the …

The neuronal excitatory amino acid transporter 3 (EAAT3) is fairly ubiquitously expressed in
the brain, though it does not necessarily maintain the same function everywhere. It is …
