Systemic pyruvate administration markedly reduces infarcts and motor deficits in rat models of transient and permanent focal cerebral ischemia
Pyruvate markedly reduces neuronal death following transient global ischemia. In the present study, we investigated the possible neuroprotective effect of pyruvate in focal ischemia. Pyruvate (62.5–250 mg/kg) treatment, regardless of whether given intraperitoneally (ip) or intravenously (iv), decrea...
