Changing stroke rehab and research worldwide now.Time is Brain! trillions and trillions of neurons that DIE each day because there are NO effective hyperacute therapies besides tPA(only 12% effective). I have 523 posts on hyperacute therapy, enough for researchers to spend decades proving them out. These are my personal ideas and blog on stroke rehabilitation and stroke research. Do not attempt any of these without checking with your medical provider. Unless you join me in agitating, when you need these therapies they won't be there.

What this blog is for:

My blog is not to help survivors recover, it is to have the 10 million yearly stroke survivors light fires underneath their doctors, stroke hospitals and stroke researchers to get stroke solved. 100% recovery. The stroke medical world is completely failing at that goal, they don't even have it as a goal. Shortly after getting out of the hospital and getting NO information on the process or protocols of stroke rehabilitation and recovery I started searching on the internet and found that no other survivor received useful information. This is an attempt to cover all stroke rehabilitation information that should be readily available to survivors so they can talk with informed knowledge to their medical staff. It lays out what needs to be done to get stroke survivors closer to 100% recovery. It's quite disgusting that this information is not available from every stroke association and doctors group.

Carotid artery transplantation of brain endothelial cells enhances neuroprotection and neurorepair in ischaemic stroke rats

Sounds promising. WHAT EXACT STROKE LEADER is going to ensure followup human testing occurs? Since there is NO leadership in stroke, NOTHING WILL OCCUR!

Carotid artery transplantation of brain endothelial cells enhances neuroprotection and neurorepair in ischaemic stroke rats

Abstract

Brain microvascular endothelial cells (BMECs), an important component of the neurovascular unit, can promote angiogenesis and synaptic formation in ischaemic mice(But the title says 'rats'.) after brain parenchyma transplantation. Since the therapeutic efficacy of cell-based therapies depends on the extent of transplanted cell residence in the target tissue and cell migration ability, the delivery route has become a hot research topic. In this study, we investigated the effects of carotid artery transplantation of BMECs on neuronal injury, neurorepair, and neurological dysfunction in rats after cerebral ischaemic attack. Purified passage 1 endothelial cells (P1-BMECs) were prepared from mouse brain tissue. Adult rats were subjected to transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) for 30 min. Then, the rats were treated with 5 × 105 P1-BMECs through carotid artery infusion or tail vein injection. We observed that carotid artery transplantation of BMECs produced more potent neuroprotective effects than caudal injection in MCAO rats, including reducing infarct size and alleviating neurological deficits in behavioural tests. Carotid artery-transplanted BMECs displayed a wider distribution in the ischaemic rat(Well, which is it, mice or rats?) brain. Immunostaining for endothelial progenitor cells and the mature endothelial cell markers CD34 and RECA-1 showed that carotid artery transplantation of BMECs significantly increased angiogenesis. Carotid artery transplantation of BMECs significantly increased the number of surviving neurons, decreased the cerebral infarction volume, and alleviated neurological deficits. In addition, we found that carotid artery transplantation of BMECs significantly enhanced ischaemia-induced hippocampal neurogenesis, as measured by doublecortin (DCX) and Ki67 double staining within 2 weeks after ischaemic injury. We conclude that carotid artery transplantation of BMECs can promote cerebral angiogenesis, neurogenesis, and neurological function recovery in adult rats after ischaemic stroke. Our results suggest that carotid injection of BMECs may be a promising new approach for treating acute brain injuries.
