Compositions and methods for improving functional vascular integrity, cellular survival and reducing apoptosis in ischemia or after ischemic episode in the brain

摘要

Abstract: Compositions and methods for enhancing vascular integrity in animals are disclosed. The compositions and methods, which utilize long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids and nitric oxide releasing compounds are also effective for reducing ischemia-in-duced brain injury in an animal. 250- n=13 M CTL-.17D Estradiol En=12 =ZIDiet f (Pink) -E 15o- n=13 9n=12 n= *15 - 111IDiet 11 (Purple) -a 00 ~ Diet 1. 1 (Gray)
