Animal models of focal and global cerebral ischemia

Abstract

The use of appropriate animal models is essential to predict the value and effect of therapeutic approaches in human subjects. Focal (stroke) and global (cardiac arrest) cerebral ischemia represents diseases that are common in the human population. Stroke and cardiac arrest, which are major causes of death and disability, affect millions of individuals around the world and are responsible for the leading health care costs of all diseases. Understanding the mechanisms of injury and neuroprotection in these diseases is critical if we are ever to learn new target sites to treat ischemia. There are many animal models available to investigate injury mechanisms and neuroprotective strategies. This review summarizes many (but not all) small and large animal models of focal and global cerebral ischemia and discusses their advantages and disadvantages.

  • Most previous work in rodent global ischemia concerns the selective delayed death of hippocampal CA1 neurons triggered by ischemia in excess of 10 min.

    “Most previous work in rodent global ischemia concerns the selective delayed death of hippocampal CA1 neurons triggered ischemia in excess of 10 min (Traystman, 2003;Yonekura et al., 2004).”

    From Two-Photon Imaging of Stroke Onset<i>In Vivo</i>Reveals That NMDA-Receptor Independent Ischemic Depolarization Is the Major Cause of Rapid Reversible Damage to Dendrites and Spines (2008) · cites this paper as Traystman, 2003

    The Global Cerebral Ischemia Models section identifies hippocampal CA1 neurons as vulnerable to injury in rodent global-ischemia models. It does not establish that most previous work focused on delayed CA1 death, and its reported durations do not support the claimed threshold: it describes CA1 injury after 5 minutes of ischemia in gerbils and hippocampal damage after 2 minutes in another model.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
