Abstract excerpt
Protective mechanisms of the brain may reduce the extent of injury after focal cerebral ischemia. Here, we explored in a mouse model of focal cerebral ischemia potential synergistic neuroprotective effects of two mediators of neuroprotection: (i) neuronal or glial precursor cells and (ii) the inhibitory neuromodulator adenosine. Embryonic stem (ES) cells, engineered to release adenosine by biallelic disruption of...
