High impact information on Brain Edema

  • A comparison of the children with cerebral edema with those in the matched control group also showed that cerebral edema was associated with lower partial pressures of arterial carbon dioxide and higher serum urea nitrogen concentrations [1].
  • CTLN2 patients (1/100,000 in Japan) suffer from a disturbance of consciousness and coma, and most die with cerebral edema within a few years of onset [8].
  • In spite of this response, one subject had mild cerebral edema on brain CT after both placebo and dexamethasone [9].
  • These results implicate a key role for AQP4 in modulating brain water transport, and suggest that AQP4 inhibition may provide a new therapeutic option for reducing brain edema in a wide variety of cerebral disorders [2].
  • Islet-infiltrating T (IIT) cells from two IDDM patients, who had died at the onset of the disease from brain swelling as a complication of ketoacidosis, were analysed [10].

  • Consequently, it is of paramount importance to ascertain the phenotypic nature of AQP4 mRNA-expressing cells in the CNS before attempting future clinical studies aimed at minimizing the development of brain edema [25].
  • Glioblastoma cells are most malignant and show resistance to radiation therapy inducing VEGF to cause angiogenesis and brain edema [26].
  • Present results obtained indicate that it is possible to reduce or prevent the late effects of SAH, i.e., neuronal hypoxia and cerebral edema, through the inhibition of endothelin-1 induced vasospasm [27].
  • In the brain, deletion of AQP4 conferred marked protection from brain swelling induced by acute water intoxication and ischaemic stroke [28].
  • There have been recent reports describing different aquaporin-responses under pathologic states leading to brain edema [29].
