Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) has gained interest as a non-invasive
treatment for stroke based on the data promoting its effects on functional recovery. However …

Background: The data on the relationship between statin use and clinical outcomes after
intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) are in controversy. Objective …

The mevalonate cascade is a key metabolic pathway that regulates a variety of cellular
functions and is thereby implicated in the pathophysiology of most brain diseases, including …

The NMDA antagonist memantine preferentially inhibits extrasynaptic NMDA receptors,
which are overactivated upon stroke and thought to disturb neuroplasticity. We hypothesized …

Background Moderate dietary protein restriction confers neuroprotection when applied
before ischemic stroke. How a moderately protein-reduced diet influences stroke recovery …

Owing to its potent longterm neuroprotective and neurorestorative properties, glial cell line-
derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) is currently studied in neurodegenerative disease …

Considerable efforts are currently made to develop strategies that boost endogenous
recovery once a stroke has occurred. Owing to their restorative properties, neurotrophic …

Traumatic brain injury (TBI), also known as intracranial injury, is a common condition with
the highest incidence rate among neurodegenerative disorders and poses a significant …

Spinal cord injury (SCI) induces neurological deficits associated with long-term functional
impairments. Since the current treatments remain ineffective, novel therapeutic options are …

Background and Purpose From the clinical and experimental data available, statins appear
to be interesting drug candidates for preventive neuroprotection in ischaemic stroke …
