Effect of Delayed Stimulation of Sigma-1 Receptor on Embolic Model of Cerebral Ischemia in Rat

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: It has been reported that selective sigma receptor agonists have neuroprotective properties in permanent or transient models of middle cerebral artery (MCA) occlusion. Neuroprotective effects of sigma receptor agonists in the embolic model of stroke have not yet been repo...

Neuroprotective effects of sigma receptor agonists in the embolic model of stroke have not yet been reported which were investigated in the current study.METHODS: In this experiment, 24 male Wistar rats (250-300 gr) were randomly categorized to 3 groups including control, treatment and sham. Embolic ischemia was induced by injection of 20 mm (5 µl) natural clot into MCA and in sham-operated animals 5 µl saline was injected.
