Viability and Contractility of Rat Brain Pericytes in Conditions That Mimic Stroke; an in vitro Study

Viability and Contractility of Rat Brain Pericytes in Conditions That Mimic Stroke; an in vitro Study

Reopening of the cerebral artery after occlusion often results in “no-reflow” that has been attributed to the death and contraction (rigor mortis) of pericytes. Since this hypothesis still needs to be confirmed, we explored the effects of oxygen glucose deprivation (OGD) on viability and cell death...
