Ameliorating Effect of Hypothalamic Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor Against Impaired Glucose Metabolism After Cerebral Ischemic Stress in Mice

Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), a member of the neurotrophin family, has potent neuroprotective effects against brain injury. We recently reported that glucose intolerance/hyperglycemia could be induced by ischemic stress (i.e., post-ischemic glucose intolerance) following ischemic neurona...
