Abstract
Ischemic stroke is a leading cause of adult disability and death worldwide. The primary treatment for cerebral ischemia patients is to restore blood supply to the ischemic region as quickly as possible. However, in most cases, more severe tissue damage occurs, which is known as cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. The pathological mechanisms of brain I/R injury include mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, excitotoxicity, calcium overload, neuroinflammation, programmed cell death and others. Propofol (2,6-diisopropylphenol), a short-acting intravenous anesthetic, possesses not only sedative and hypnotic effects but also immunomodulatory and neuroprotective effects. Numerous studies have reported the protective properties of propofol during brain I/R injury. In this review, we summarize the potential protective mechanisms of propofol to provide insights for its better clinical application in alleviating cerebral I/R injury.
期刊介绍：
Pharmacological Reports publishes articles concerning all aspects of pharmacology, dealing with the action of drugs at a cellular and molecular level, and papers on the relationship between molecular structure and biological activity as well as reports on compounds with well-defined chemical structures.
Pharmacological Reports is an open forum to disseminate recent developments in: pharmacology, behavioural brain research, evidence-based complementary biochemical pharmacology, medicinal chemistry and biochemistry, drug discovery, neuro-psychopharmacology and biological psychiatry, neuroscience and neuropharmacology, cellular and molecular neuroscience, molecular biology, cell biology, toxicology.
Studies of plant extracts are not suitable for Pharmacological Reports.
