Maturation Phenomenon in Cerebral Ischemia III : Defensive Mechanisms Versus Apoptosis Neuronal Recovery and Protection in Cerebral Infarction /

The maturation phenomenon refers to postischemic changes that develop hours or days following an ischemic insult. The delayed neuronal death of CA1 pyramidical cells of the hippocampus is a classic example. The report of the phenomenon has boosted research in this field, as it became evident that is...
