Abstract
The aim of the present work was to investigate the neuroprotective effects of early and late ischemic preconditioning (IPreC) in the acute phase of ischemic brain damage in rats. Single 5-min ischemic episodes of early IPreC were found not to produce significant neuroprotective effects as compared with controls, while three 5-min episodes of early IPreC led to significant increases in neurological deficit and increases in the level of neuron injury in hippocampal field CA1. Conversely, late IPreC, consisting of a single 5-min episode 24 h before modeling test ischemia, produced a significant neuroprotective effect, with decreased neurological deficit and retention of hippocampal field CA1 neuron viability.
