A Strategy to Salvage Stressed Neurons Following Stroke (1 of 2)

image: Images of adult mice brains two hours after induced ischemic stroke. Mice treated with the B4Crry complement inhibitor (right) showed less inflammation (Mac2, yellow) after stroke compared to untreated mice (left). This material relates to a paper that appeared in the 16 May, issue of Science Translational Medicine, published by AAAS. The paper, by A. Alawieh at Medical University of South Carolina in Charleston, SC; and colleagues was titled, "Targeted complement inhibition salvages stressed neurons and inhibits neuroinflammation after stroke in mice." view more
