Delayed changes in the transcriptomic profile of cerebral arteries in a rat model of subarachnoid hemorrhage.

Aneurismal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) is a neurovascular disease characterized by blood released into the subarachnoid space due to rupture of the cerebral arteries. After the onset of bleeding, secondary associated vasospasm (VSP) remains a dramatic side effect that causes severe comorbidities. We analyzed alterations in the expression profiles of arteries from a rat model of SAH using microarray and bioinformatics approaches.

Arylphthalide Delays Diabetic Retinopathy via Immunomodulating the Early Inflammatory Response in an Animal Model of Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus.

Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is one of the most prevalent secondary complications associated with diabetes. Specifically, Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1D) has an immune component that may determine the evolution of DR by compromising the immune response of the retina, which is mediated by microglia. In the early stages of DR, the permeabilization of the blood-retinal barrier allows immune cells from the peripheral system to interact with the retinal immune system.

Changes in arterial myocyte excitability induced by subarachnoid hemorrhage in a rat model.

Aneurismal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) is a neurovascular disease produced by the rupture of the cerebral arteries and the extravasation of blood to the subarachnoid space and is accompanied by severe comorbidities. Secondarily associated vasospasm is one of the main side effects after hydrocephalus and possible rebleeding. Here, we analyze the alterations in function in the arteries of a rat model of SAH.

Retinal dysfunction in Huntington's disease mouse models concurs with local gliosis and microglia activation.

Huntington's disease (HD) is caused by an aberrant expansion of CAG repeats in the HTT gene that mainly affects basal ganglia. Although striatal dysfunction has been widely studied in HD mouse models, other brain areas can also be relevant to the pathology. In this sense, we have special interest on the retina as this is the most exposed part of the central nervous system that enable health monitoring of patients using noninvasive techniques.

Changes in Adhesion and the Expression of Adhesion Molecules in PBMCs after Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage: Relation to Cerebral Vasospasm.

Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) is a neurovascular disease produced by extravasation of blood to the subarachnoid space after rupture of the cerebral vessels. After bleeding, the immune response is activated. The role of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) in this response is a current subject of research.
