New Rochelle, NY, August 16, 2017–A new study has shown that following brain ischemia caused by cerebral blockage in mice both immediate and delayed reduction in body temperature helped limit cell death and levels of a protein called dynamin. These results, which suggest that dynamin may have a role in—and be a potential drug target for—stroke-related neuronal cell death, are reported in Therapeutic Hypothermia and Temperature Management, a peer-reviewed journal from Mary Ann Liebert, Inc., publishers. The article is available free on the Journal website until September 16, 2017.
Therapeutic Hypothermia and Temperature Management is the only peer-reviewed journal providing clinical advances, best practices, and protocols on this critical, life-saving technology, including its application in cardiac arrest, spinal cord and traumatic brain injury, stroke, and burns. The Journal is published quarterly online with open access options and in print. Complete tables of content and a sample issue may be viewed on the Therapeutic Hypothermia and Temperature Management website.
