Molecular mechanisms involved in cerebral ischemic-induced neuronal death

Abstract

The understanding of the cellular, molecular and biochemical processes that take place during the production of brain lesions has increased recently due to numerous studies of microscopy, cellular and molecular biology, performed on both human material and experimentally on a laboratory animal. Although new therapeutic methods have emerged to treat strokes and prevent them, due to the complexity of morpho and pathophysiological processes, the beneficial effects of treatment are still far from satisfactory.
