  • Flamm ES, Demopoulos HB, Seligman ML, Poser RG, Ransohoff J., Free radicals in cerebral ischemia, Stroke. 1978 Sep-Oct;9(5):445-7.
Generally acknowledged as the first experimental demonstration of a role for reactive oxygen species in stroke.
  • Demopoulos, H. B,, Flamm, E. S., Pietronegro, D. D., and Seligman, M. L., The free radical pathology and the microcirculation in the major central nervous system disorders, Acta Physiol. Scand. Suppl., 492, 91, 1980.
This paper first suggests that free radical pathogenesis in stroke may be at least partially mediated through damage to the microcirculation. The neuroprotective antistroke agents NXY-059, Tirilazad, Superoxide dismutase/Catalase, and uric acid all likely work at this level, rather than interneuronally.

"Large doses of methohexital protect the microcirculation in regional cerebral ischaemia models". This is the first well-defined example of an antistroke neuroprotective agent working outside the blood–brain barrier. NXY-059, Superoxide dismutase, catalase, uric acid, and Tirilazad are others.

Famous quotes containing the word works:

    “We ourselves are Jews by birth and not Gentile sinners; yet we know that a person is justified not by the works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ. And we have come to believe in Christ Jesus, so that we might be justified by faith in Christ, and not by doing the works of the law, because no one will be justified by the works of the law.”
    —Bible: New Testament, Galatians 2:15-16.

    “Men seem anxious to accomplish an orderly retreat through the centuries, earnestly rebuilding the works behind them, as they are battered down by the encroachments of time; but while they loiter, they and their works both fall prey to the arch enemy.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Most works of art, like most wines, ought to be consumed in the district of their fabrication.”
    —Rebecca West (1892–1983)
