Isoflurane Postconditioning Upregulates Phosphorylated Connexin 43 in the Middle Cerebral Artery Occlusion Model and Is Probably Associated with the TGF-β1/Smad2/3 Signaling Pathway
Aim. Connexin 43 (Cx43) has been identified to be important for cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury as well as protection from it. This study was aimed at investigating the relationship between phosphorylated Cx43 (p-Cx43), transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1)/Smad2/3 signaling pathway, and...
