Inhibition or genetic deletion of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) is profoundly protective against a number of toxic insults in many organ systems1,2. In the brain the molecular mechanisms unde
The development of clinical stroke therapies remains elusive. The neuroprotective efficacies of thousands of molecules and compounds have not yet been determined; however, screening large volumes of p
BackgroundIntestinal ischemia–reperfusion (II/R) injury is a severe clinical condition in which regulated cell death programs—including pyroptosis and necroptosis—have emerged as key drivers of tissue
