Outgrowth endothelial cells form a functional cerebral barrier and restore its integrity after damage (2019)
Journal Article
Bayraktutan, U., Abdulkadir, R., Alwjwaj, M., Othman, O., & Rakkar, K. (2020). Outgrowth endothelial cells form a functional cerebral barrier and restore its integrity after damage. Neural Regeneration Research, 15(6), 1071-1078. https://doi.org/10.4103/1673-5374.269029

Breakdown of blood-brain barrier, formed mainly by brain microvascular endothelial cells (BMECs), represents the major cause of mortality during early phases of ischemic strokes. Hence, discovery of novel agents that can effectively replace dead or d... Read More about Outgrowth endothelial cells form a functional cerebral barrier and restore its integrity after damage.

Urokinase Plasminogen Activator: A Potential Thrombolytic Agent for Ischaemic Stroke (2019)
Journal Article
Kadir, R. R. A., & Bayraktutan, U. (2019). Urokinase Plasminogen Activator: A Potential Thrombolytic Agent for Ischaemic Stroke. Cellular and Molecular Neurobiology, 40, 347-355. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10571-019-00737-w

Stroke continues to be one of the leading causes of mortality and morbidity worldwide. Restoration of cerebral blood flow by recombinant plasminogen activator (rtPA) with or without mechanical thrombectomy is considered the most effective therapy for...

Endothelial progenitor cells: Potential novel therapeutics for ischaemic stroke (2019)
Journal Article
Bayraktutan, U. (2019). Endothelial progenitor cells: Potential novel therapeutics for ischaemic stroke. Pharmacological Research, 144, 181-191. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.phrs.2019.04.017

Stroke is classified into two main groups depending on its aetiology; ischaemic stroke and haemorrhagic stroke which successively develop from the occlusion or rupture of an artery leading to the brain. Despite being the leading cause of human cerebr... Read More about Endothelial progenitor cells: Potential novel therapeutics for ischaemic stroke.
