1. Apoptotic and necrotic cell death after photothrombotic ring stroke : characterization of a stroke model and its morphological and molecular consequences
Abstract : Cerebral ischemic cell death is a major cause of disability and death among stroke patients. The brain cell demise can occur through apoptosis or necrosis or as a continuum of both. This study aimed at establishing a dual setup of a photothrombotic ring stroke model and exploring its morphological and molecular consequences. READ MORE

2. Mechanisms of Mitochondria-Induced Brain Damage Following Ischemia and Hypoglycemia
Abstract : Mechanisms of Mitochondria-Induced Brain Damage Following Ischemia and Hypoglycemia Following prolonged disruption of blood flow to the central nervous system (CNS), or energy deprivation by other means, such as hypoglycemia, some cells will inevitably degenerate. It has been, and still is, the subject of considerable debate and intense research on brain ischemia, as to the mode of cell death, i. READ MORE

3. Studies of SIRPα-mediated regulation of neutrophil functions
Abstract : Neutrophil granulocytes constitute the front line of defense in the innate immune response to invading microorganisms, but can also contribute to development of inflammatory disease and tissue destruction following e.g. myocardial infarction or stroke. READ MORE

4. Ischemic and Hypoglycemic Brain Damage, Involvement of the Mitochondrial Permeability Transition Pore
Abstract : Brain damage from ischemia-reperfusion and hypoglycemia are major causes of morbidity and mortality. Therapeutic strategies include hypothermia, glutamate-receptor blockade, immunosuppression and lately treatment aiming at preserving mitochondrial integrity and function. READ MORE

5. Cathepsin D released from lysosomes mediates apoptosis
Abstract : Last year (2002), the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine was awarded to three scientists who have conducted pioneer research on programmed cell death. In the human body, more than a thousand billion cells are created every day, and an equal number die, thus programmed cell death, or apoptosis, is an important mechanism for maintaining tissue homeostasis and protecting against disease.
