Monitoring Astrocyte Reactivity and Proliferation in Vitro Under Ischemic-Like Conditions

Ischemic stroke is a complex event in which the specific contribution of astrocytes to the affected brain region exposed to oxygen glucose deprivation (OGD) is difficult to study. This article introduces a methodology to obtain isolated astrocytes and study their reactivity and proliferation under OGD...

Culturing Microglia from the Neonatal and Adult Central Nervous System

We outline methods for the efficient and quick isolation/culture of viable microglia from the neonatal cerebral cortex and adult spinal cord. The dissection and plating of cortical microglia can be accomplished within 90 minutes, with the subsequent microglial harvest taking place ~ 10 days following the initial...

A Piglet Model of Neonatal Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy

Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy following perinatal asphyxia can be studied using animal models. We demonstrate the procedures necessary for establishing a piglet model of neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy.

Neurobehavioral Assessments in a Mouse Model of Neonatal Hypoxic-ischemic Brain Injury

We performed unilateral carotid artery occlusion on postnatal day 7-10 CD-1 mouse pups to create a neonatal hypoxic-ischemic (HI) model and investigated the effects of HI brain injury. We studied neurobehavioral functions in these mice compared to non-operated normal...

Transient Middle Cerebral Artery Occlusion Model of Neonatal Stroke in P10 Rats

Neonatal stroke is a significant cause of early brain injury requiring a translational model with consistent focal injury patterns and high reproducibility in order to enable study. This study describes the detailed surgical procedure for creating a non-hemorrhagic, unilateral focal ischemia-reperfusion injury in full-term-equivalent...

Assessing the Angiogenesis Effects of a Test Drug in a Rat Model of Ischemic Stroke

Begin with a rat subjected to middle cerebral artery occlusion, a surgical procedure that temporarily blocks blood flow to the brain tissue.This induces an ischemic stroke, leading to brain tissue damage.Next, remove the blockage to restore blood flow.Select rats that exhibit neurological deficits to ensure study relevance.Then, administer the test drug to the experimental group while injecting saline into the other group.Repeat the drug and saline administration.The test drug promotes...
