Article Synopsis
- - Thiazolidinediones (TZDs), such as pioglitazone, show potential neuroprotective effects in rat models of stroke through various administration routes.
- - In a study, rats received different doses of oral pioglitazone prior to a simulated stroke (MCAO), with the two higher doses (0.65 mg/kg and 0.40 mg/kg) significantly reducing brain damage and improving motor functions compared to the lowest dose (0.20 mg/kg), which had no significant effects.
- - The study included assessments of motor and sensory abilities post-stroke using various tests, revealing enhanced recovery in rats treated with the higher doses of pioglitazone.
