Pathological processes affecting presynaptic terminals may contribute to morbidity following traumatic brain injury (TBI). Posttraumatic widespread neuronal depolarization and elevated extracellular potassium and glutamate are predicted to alter the transduction of action potentials in terminals int

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) initiates many different signaling cascades throughout the brain that impact both pathophysiological and neuroprotective processes. Cellular mechanisms that can modulate these processes may play an important role in determining the nature and extent of the damage suffere
The neuroprotective effects of Riluzole, a compound with several mechanisms of action including the inhibition of sodium channel activity and glutamate release, were evaluated in a rat model of parasagittal fluid-percussion (FP) brain injury. Male Sprague-Dawley rats (350-400 g, n โซุโฌ 17) were anest
