Druggable Mitochondrial Targets for Treatment of Cerebral Ischemia
Quality survival after brain injury is currently the greatest challenge for critically ill or injured infants and children. A universal contributor limiting quality survivorship is the devastating impact of hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE), either as a primary consequence in cases of cardiac arrest, stroke, or intracranial hemorrhage or as secondary sequelae in cases of status epilepticus, circulatory or septic shock, neuroinflammation, or traumatic brain injury (TBI); with the principal cause of HIE spanning from infancy through adolescence a consequence of cardiac arrest.
