https://www.selleckchem.com/screening/inhibitor-library.html Stroke is a major cause of death and disability worldwide. Yet therapeutic strategies available to treat stroke are very limited. There is an urgent need to develop novel therapeutics that can effectively facilitate functional recovery. The injury that results from stroke is known to induce neurogenesis in penumbra of the infarct region. There is considerable interest in harnessing this response for therapeutic purposes. This review summarizes what is currently known about stroke-induced neurogenesis and the factors that have been identified to regulate it. Additionally, some key studies in this field have been highlighted and their implications on future of stroke therapy have been discussed. There is a complex interplay between neuroinflammation and neurogenesis that dictates stroke outcome and possibly recovery. This highlights the need for a better understanding of the neuroinflammatory process and how it affects neurogenesis, as well as the need to identify new mechanisms and potential modulators. Neuroinflammatory processes and their impact on post-stroke repair have therefore also been discussed.Acute respiratory infection (ARI) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Most of these infections are caused by viruses. Infections pose as important triggers of acute episodes of chronic respiratory diseases (CRD). This study sought to evaluate the frequency and circulation profile of respiratory viruses among ARI symptomatic patients and completely asymptomatic children in Midwest Brazil. The study enrolled symptomatic children with and without ARI symptoms. During 1 year, 225 nasal respiratory samples were obtained from patients aged 4-14 years old. The samples were screened by multiplex nested-PCR for 16 common respiratory viruses. From 225 samples, 42 had at least one virus detected. Samples from four different patients had multiple viruses detected. The viral detection rate in symptomat
