1. Estrogen signaling in stroke : genetic and experimental studies
Abstract : Stroke is a common and multifactorial disease influenced by genetic and environmental risk factors. It is a highly heterogeneous entity consisting of two main types, ischemic (80%) and hemorrhagic (20%) stroke. The most common form of hemorrhagic stroke is intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). READ MORE

5. 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
