Involvement of SIRT1 and SIRT3 in Effects of Hypoxic Hypobaric Preconditioning on Hippocampal Damage Induced by Chronic Cerebral Hypoperfusion in C57/6j and a7nAchRs(-/-) Mice

Int. j. morphol; 42 (3), 2024
SUMMARY: Hypoxic preconditioning is known to induce neuroprotection, but its effects and pathways in chronic brain pathology still unknown. The aim was to establish an involvement of a7 subunit of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (a7nAchRs), and sirtuins of 1 (SIRT1) and 3 (SIRT3) types in the effects o...
