Neuroprotection Caused by Hyperoxia Preconditioning in Animal Stroke Models by Mohammad Reza Bigdeli

“…Neuroprotection induced by HO exhibits specific adaptation responses that involve a number of cellular and biochemical alterations, including metabolic homeostasis and reprogramming of gene expression. The changes in the metabolic pathways are generally short lived and reversible, while the consequences of gene expression are a long-term process and may lead to the permanent alteration in the pattern of gene expression. …”
