In the present study, gerbils were orally pre‑treated with CIL, and changes of antioxidant enzymes including superoxide dismutase (SOD) 1 and SOD2, catalase (CAT) and glutathione peroxidase (GPX) in the hippocampal CA1 region following 5 min of transient cerebral ischemia were investigated and the neuroprotective effect of CIL in the ischemic CA1 region was examined.
Oxidative stress transiently decreases the IKK complex (IKKalpha, beta, and gamma), an upstream component of NF-kappaB signaling, after transient focal cerebral ischemia in mice.
Overexpression of copper/zinc superoxide dismutase in transgenic mice protects against neuronal cell death after transient focal ischemia by blocking activation of the Bad cell death signaling pathway.

The most common symptoms of CADASIL are small ischemic strokes and/or transient ischemic attacks and cognitive impairment, appearing in middle age, that may progress to frank vascular dementia.
We here report the case of a 69-year-old woman with recurrent transient ischemic attacks (TIAs) and strokes, seizures, and dementia without any mutations in exons 3 and 4 of the Notch3 gene and with a normal skin biopsy, but who showed characteristic CADASIL abnormalities on brain pathological examination.
Together, Ginseng pretreatment protects against acute sensorimotor deficits and promotes its long-term recovery after pdMCAO, at least partly, through Nrf2 activation, highlighting the potential efficacy of oral consumption of Ginseng for stroke preventative intervention in patients who are at great risk of recurrent stroke or transient ischemic attack.
Our data suggest that UTI improves the worsened protein expression of autophagy and apoptosis, and restores Nrf2-ARE signals in the hippocampus and this is linked to inhibition of neurological deficiencies in transient cerebral ischemia.
