A stepwise-targeting strategy for the treatment of cerebral ischemic stroke

Abstract Background Effective amelioration of neuronal damages in the case of cerebral ischemic stroke (CIS) is essential for the protection of brain tissues and their functional recovery. However, most drugs can not penetrate the blood–brain barrier (BBB), resulting in the poor therapeutic outcomes...
