NADPH oxidase and brain repair after ischaemic stroke

中风是第三大最常见的死亡原因，导致相当大的痛苦，并提出了一个巨大的成本卫生预算。新的研究表明，受伤的大脑可以被刺激以改善功能。中风后数周内大脑中自由基的产生可能通过促进新血管形成以支持大脑修复而在长期恢复中起重要作用。在这个项目中，我们试图确定新血管如何，何时以及在何处帮助干细胞介导的修复。

Stroke is the third most common cause of death, results in considerable suffering and presents an enormous cost to health budgets. New research suggests that the injured brain can be stimulated to improve function. Generation of free radicals in the brain in the weeks after stroke may be important in long term recovery by promoting new blood vessel formation to suport brain repair. In this project we seek to identify how, when and where new blood vessels assist stem cell mediated repair.
