Neuropathological and Behavioral Consequences of Adeno-Associated Viral Vector-Mediated Continuous Intrastriatal Neurotrophin Delivery in a Focal Ischemia Model in Rats

Neuropathological and Behavioral Consequences of Adeno-Associated Viral Vector-Mediated Continuous Intrastriatal Neurotrophin Delivery in a Focal Ischemia Model in Rats

Nerve growth factor (NGF) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) were continuously delivered to the striatum at biologically active levels via recombinant adeno-associated viral (rAAV) gene transfer 4–5 weeks prior to 30 min of middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO). The magnitude of the defi...
