Abstract
is the most common type of stroke, resulting from reduced cerebral blood flow that leads to neuronal injury and death.
- Ischemic stroke is linked to a series of harmful events caused by oxygen and nutrient deprivation.
- Key processes involved include , oxidative stress, and inflammation, which contribute to cellular damage.
- Molecular players such as glutamate receptors, acid-sensing ion channels, and purinergic receptors may exacerbate neuronal injury.
- Current treatments focus on timely intervention, particularly with tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), though challenges remain regarding variability and accessibility.
- Future therapeutic strategies may include neuroprotective agents and stem cell therapies aimed at reducing stroke-related disabilities.
