Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Genetically engineered mice are used to study the role of single genes in cerebral ischemia, but inherent, strain-dependent differences in neuronal vulnerability may affect experimental end points. To examine this possibility, tissue injury resulting from focal ischemia and its relationship to cerebral hemodynamics were determined in 3 common mutant mouse strains. METHODS: Permanent middle...
