Neuroprotection Induced by Preconditioning with Prolonged and Intermittent Normobaric Hyperoxia Upregulate TNF-α Converting Enzyme and Increase NF-kB Activity in the Rat Stroke Model

Objective: Ischemic preconditioning (IPC) is an endogenous phenomenon that caninduce ischemic tolerance (IT) in variety of organs such as brain. In this study, weexamined the intermittent and prolonged dose of normobaric hyperoxia (NBHO)in neurologic deficit scores, NF-kB activity, and TNF-α convert...
