Abstract
Temporal ischemia of the brain injures only the selectively vulnerable brain cells. The dying process evolves along with glutamate-mediated intracellular signal-transduction system, together with a loss of Ca2+ homeostasis. Such post-ischemic changes eventually disrupt functional and structural integrity of the cell membrane and kill the neuron. Molecular basis in pharmacoprotective agents is discussed.
