## Abstract The immunosuppressant FK506 (tacrolimus) exerts potent neuroprotection following focal ischemia in animals; however, the separate effects of FK506 on the ischemic core and penumbra have not been reported. The ischemic penumbra is clinically defined as the difference between a large abno
We examined the neuroprotective action of a standardized extract of Ginkgo biloba leaves (EGb 761) in permanent and transient middle cerebral artery (MCA) occlusion models in Sprague-Dawley rats. Forty-four animals were given either EGb 761 (50-200 mg/kg) or vehicle intraperitoneally, 1 hr before pe
