Remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) is a simple, non-invasive procedure that has been shown to be safe and feasible in multiple smaller clinical trials. Recent large randomized controlled trials have yielded mixed results regarding clinical effect. Patients with severe stroke may experience greater benefit from cerebroprotective interventions, highlighting the need for adjunctive therapies to enhance endovascular therapy (EVT)...

The CACNA1A gene encodes the pore-forming α1 subunit of voltage-gated P/Q type Ca 2+ channels (Ca v 2.1). Mutations in this gene, among others, have been described in patients and rodents suffering from absence seizures and episodic ataxia type 2 with/without concomitant seizures. In this study, we aimed for the first time to assess phenotypic and behavioral alterations in larval zebrafish with partial cacna1aa knockdown, plac...
