Thrombectomy with embed aspiration in acute ischaemic stroke.

Background: In addition to stent retrievers, direct aspiration has become a reasonable thrombectomy strategy.

Objectives: We carried out the thrombectomy by guiding the aspiration catheter fully over the clot and performing immediate manual aspiration; we call this procedure "embed aspiration".

Methods: In this prospective, non-randomised, single-centre study, we included all patients treated at a high volume-of-care stroke centre between 2017 and 2018 for the TRIANA (Thrombectomy in Andalusia using Aspiration) registry.

Safety and efficacy of intra-arterial bone marrow mononuclear cell transplantation in patients with acute ischaemic stroke in Spain (IBIS trial): a phase 2, randomised, open-label, standard-of-care controlled, multicentre trial.

Background: Pilot clinical trials have shown the safety of intra-arterial bone marrow mononuclear cells (BMMNCs) in stroke. However, the efficacy of different doses of intra-arterial BMMNCs in patients with acute stroke has not been tested in a randomised clinical trial. We aimed to show safety and efficacy of two different doses of autologous intra-arterial BMMNC transplantation in patients with acute stroke.

Inhibitory action of extracellular adenosine 5'-triphosphate on parietal cells isolated from rabbit gastric mucosa.

The effects of the purine nucleotides, adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) and their analogs 2-methylthio ATP and beta, gamma-methylene ATP, as well as those of the pyrimidine nucleotide, uridine 5'-triphosphate (UTP), on acid production in isolated rabbit gastric parietal cells prepared by enzymatic dispersion and enriched by counterflow elutriation were studied. The (14C)-aminopyrine (AP) accumulation method was used as an index of acid production by the parietal cells. In histamine-stimulated parietal cells, ATP and 2-methylthio ATP, but not beta, gamma-methylene ATP or UTP, produced significant and concentration-related inhibition of the histamine-stimulated AP uptake.

P1(A2/Ra)-purinoceptors may mediate the stimulatory effect of adenosine and adenosine analogs on acid formation in isolated rabbit parietal cells.

The effects of adenosine (ADO) and its analogs 2-chloroadenosine (2CADO) and 5'-N-ethyl-carboxamido adenosine (NECA) on acid production, as measured by the [14C]-aminopyrine (AP) accumulation method, were studied in rabbit gastric parietal cells prepared by enzymatic dispersion and enriched by counterflow elutriation. ADO (1 microM to 1 mM), 2CADO (1 microM to 1 mM) and NECA (0.1 microM to 100 microM) caused significant concentration-related increases on AP uptake by resting parietal cells.
