Any type of brain injury that transpires post-birth is referred to as Acquired Brain Injury (ABI).
In general, ABI does not result from congenital disorders, degenerative diseases, or by brain …

Sublethal hypoxic or ischemic events can improve the tolerance of tissues, organs, and even
organisms from subsequent lethal injury caused by hypoxia or ischemia. This phenomenon …

Skeletal muscles contain resident immune cell populations and their abundance and type is
altered in inflammatory myopathies, endotoxemia or different types of muscle injury/insult …

BACKGROUND: Restoration of blood supply to an organ after a critical period of ischemia
results in parenchymal injury and dysfunction of the organ referred to as reperfusion injury …

Remote ischemic preconditioning (IPC) reduces tissue injury caused by ischemia-
reperfusion (IR) in distant organs. We tested the hypothesis that remote IPC (rIPC) modifies …

Skin flaps are necessary in plastic and reconstructive surgery for the removal of skin cancer,
wounds, and ulcers. A skin flap is a portion of skin with its own blood supply that is partially …

Microvascular dysfunction mediates many of the local and systemic consequences of
ischemicreperfusion (I/R) injury, with a spectrum of changes specific to arterioles, capillaries …

Background. We assess whether remote ischemic preconditioning (rIPC) of the recipient can
modify ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury in the donor heart following orthotopic heart …

Organ or tissue dysfunction due to acute ischemia–reperfusion injury (IRI) is the leading
cause of death and disability worldwide. Acute IRI induces cell injury and death in a wide …

Enkephalins are opioid peptides that are found at high levels in the brain and endocrine
tissues. Studies have shown that enkephalins play an important role in behavior, pain …
