In particular, China faces the greatest challenge from stroke, since the population is aged quickly. In decades of clinical trials, no neuroprotectant has had reproducible efficacy on primary clinical end points, because reperfusion is probably a necessity for neuroprotection to be clinically beneficial. Fortunately, the success of thrombolysis and endovascular thrombectomy has taken us into a reperfusion era of acute ischaemic stroke (AIS) therapy. Brain cytoprotective agents can prevent detrimental effects of ischaemia, and therefore 'freeze' ischaemic penumbra before reperfusion, extend the time window for reperfusion therapy. Because reperfusion often leads to reperfusion injury, including haemorrhagic transformation, brain oedema, infarct progression and neurological worsening, cytoprotective agents will enhance the efficacy and safety of reperfusion therapy by preventing or reducing reperfusion injuries. Therefore, reperfusion and cytoprotective agents are a mutually beneficial pair in AIS therapy. In this review, we outline critical pathophysiological events causing cell death within the penumbra after ischaemia or ischaemia/reperfusion in the acute phase of AIS, focusing on excitotoxicity and free radicals.
