Neuroprotection and P450 2C11 Upregulation After Experimental Transient Ischemic Attack Jump to Abstract Transient ischemic attack (TIA) is a risk factor for stroke. However, TIA may also serve as a preconditioning stimulus, reducing damage from subsequent stroke. We tested the hypothesis that experimental TIA induces ...

In heart, EETs production is increased during myocardial ischemia, 20 which is protective against ischemia/reperfusion injury, 21 likely via enhanced endothelium-dependent coronary artery relaxation. 22 Accordingly, we tested the hy...

By day 3, 2C11 mRNA levels were 2 to 3 times higher in TIA- versus sham-preconditioned animals. In agreement with the chang...
