Scavenger Receptor Class B type 1 (SR-B1) and the modifiable risk factors of stroke
Abstract Stroke is a devastating disease that occurs when a blood vessel in the brain is either blocked or ruptured, consequently leading to deficits in neurological function. Stroke consistently ranked as one of the top causes of mortality, and with the mean age of incidence decreasing, there is re...
