Ischemic Stroke

Stroke Rehabilitation

A stroke, previously known medically as a cerebrovascular accident (CVA), is the rapidly developing loss of brain function(s) due to disturbance in the blood supply to the brain. This can be due to...

Stroke CVA

A stroke is a cerebrovascular accident that results in inadequate blood flow to part of the brain, starving it of oxygen and causing immediate and irreversible changes to the neurones. If affects 15...

Vascular Dementia

Vascular Dementia accounts for 25% of all dementias (the second most commen cause after Alzheimers. It is the cumulative effects of many small strokes - patients often have evidence of vascular path...

FDA grants orphan drug status to Lentigen’s LG631-CD34 for treatment of glioblastoma multiforme

Lentigen Corporation, a biotechnology company specializing in the development and manufacture of lentiviral gene delivery products, announced today that that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA...

Lymphoid priming in human bone marrow begins before expression of CD10 with upregulation of L-selectin

'Lymphoid priming' in human bone marrow is traditionally thought to begin with the expression of CD10 on CD34+ progenitors. Crooks and colleagues now demonstrate lymphoid priming in a subset of CD10â€...

LG631-CD34 regulatory update

Mobilization of stem cells in healthy donors by G-CSF biosimilars shows comparable efficacy and safety to Neupogen

Originator human recombinant granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) filgrastim has been widely used for the mobilization of CD34+ stem cells in healthy donors. However, there is limited ex...

Stroke recovery and treatment studies win top honors at Canadian Stroke Congress

(Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada) Two outstanding studies - one measuring the ability of the brain to recover from stroke and the other a tool to predict clinical outcomes after stroke - were ho...

NSA launches new Faces of Stroke mini-campaign

National Stroke Association has launched a new Faces of Stroke(SM) mini-campaign designed to educate about the connection between stroke and Afib, a type of irregular heartbeat that increases risk of...

Endothelial progenitor cells correlate with lesion volume and growth in acute stroke.

OBJECTIVES: Circulating endothelial progenitor cells (EPC) are markers of vascular injury and their numbers decrease in acute stroke. However, the relation of EPC levels to stroke severity has not bee...

Impact of constitutional polymorphisms in VCAM1 and CD44 on CD34+ cell collection yield after G-CSF administration in healthy donors.

Background. The number of CD34+ cells mobilized from bone marrow to peripheral blood after G-CSF administration greatly varies among healthy donors. This fact might be explained at least in part due t...

Metallothionein in human immunomagnetically selected CD34+ hematopoietic progenitor cells.

Human umbilical CD34+ immature hematopoietic cells were rapidly and efficiently obtained from light density mononuclear cells (MNC) by magnetic cell sorting (MACS). An ex vivo expanded population of C...

Potential role of CD34 in cerebral vasospasm after experimental subarachnoid hemorrhage in rats.

Inflammatory responses have been implicated in the elaboration of several forms of central nervous system injury, including cerebral vasospasm after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). A critical event par...

Distinguishing neurofibroma from desmoplastic melanoma: the value of the CD34 fingerprint.

We have observed 'fingerprint' immunopositivity in association with perineurioma and neurofibroma. A fingerprint consists of delicate, elongated areas of positive labeling that fall between collagen b...
