Today we welcome our regular Tuesday contributor, Catherine Alford! In the past, the bride’s family used to pick up the tab for her wedding. However, many couples today are paying part or all of their own way to wedded bliss. This is due to a combination of people getting married later in life and the exorbitant costs ... | 1.634676 | 1,023 | 1,021 |

My first classroom experience at WCSC was far from the “normal” first day routine. As I sat in a circle with my classmates, pondering what I was about to learn, a short, sweet lady walked in and introduced the lesson for the day: self defense. Little did I know the lessons I was ab... | 1.731038 | 1,013 | 1,011 |
SUMMARY
Brain ischemia, also termed cerebral ischemia, is a condition in which there is insufficient blood flow to the brain to meet metabolic demand, leading to tissue death (cerebral infarction) due to poor oxygen supply (cerebral hypoxia). Our group is interested in the protective effects of neuropeptides for allevi... | 1.216937 | 1,024 | 1,023 |
9109 and 3912 articles, respectively. The subject has also been widely reviewed, with a PubMed search using both the keywords ‘brain ischemia’ and ‘review’ resulting in a total of 9478 articles. In order to understand the pathology of stroke, targeted gene expression and proteomics studies have been carried out to inve... | 1.352713 | 1,024 | 1,023 |

transformed with a vector containing S100b cDNA, cell damage as a result of copper-induced oxidative stress is also reduced (Nishikawa et al., 1997). It is tempting to speculate that S100a5 might also exert such a protective role. It should be noted, however, that this gene has been previously identified as a hypoxia-... | 1.283064 | 1,024 | 1,023 |
mp14 and Mmp19. The MMP9 protein has been reported to increase after cerebral focal ischemia in rats (Romanic et al., 1998). We also found a 4.28-fold increase in Mmp9 expression at 24 hours after ischemia, which is in line with the observation of MMP9 protein expression. It has been recently reported that MMP9 release... | 1.121616 | 1,024 | 1,023 |
itory and ciliary neurotrophic factors and use gp130 as a common receptor subunit. IL-6 has been previously shown to play a role in neurodegeneration rather than neuroprotection in cerebral ischemia (Clark et al., 2000).

expression was modulated by events occurring in the ischemic hemisphere. The other member of this family, S100a8, was primarily expressed in the ischemic hemisphere, but not (or only minimally) expressed in the non-ischemic hemisphere, suggesting that S100a5 and S100a8 show differential expression in the non-ischemic ... | 1.329144 | 1,024 | 1,023 |

Interestingly, many genes also showed differential expression in the non-ischemic contralateral hemisphere, revealing the identity of specific ischemia-related genes. Our study further highlights the usefulness of global gene expression profiling in searching for changes i... | 1.152498 | 1,024 | 1,023 |
