White matter injury (WMI) and blood–brain barrier (BBB) disruption contribute to neurological and cognitive deficits in intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), with no effective pharmacological treatments available. Puerarin, with anti-inflammatory, an...

The selection of an appropriate animal model is key to the production of results with optimal relevance to human disease. Particularly in the case of perinatal brain injury, a dearth of affected human neonatal tissue available for research purposes i...

Background: Perinatal infection is a major risk factor for diffuse white matter injury (dWMI), which remains the most common form of neurological disability among very preterm infants. The disease primarily targets oligodendrocytes (OL) lineage cells...

White matter injury (WMI) is a common neurological issue in premature-born neonates, often causing long-term disabilities. We recently demonstrated a key beneficial role of Wharton’s jelly mesenchymal stromal cell-derived small extracellular ve...

Preterm birth is a major contributor to neonatal morbidity and mortality. Complications of prematurity such as bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD, affecting the lung), pulmonary hypertension associated with BPD (BPD-PH, heart), white matter injury (WMI,...

This review discusses the potential mechanistic role of abnormally elevated mitochondrial proton leak and mitochondrial bioenergetic dysfunction in the pathogenesis of neonatal brain and lung injuries associated with premature birth. Providing suppor...

Intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) is an important cause of long-term disability in extremely preterm infants, with no current treatment. We aimed to study in an IVH model in immature rats the neuroprotective effect of betulinic acid hydroxamate (BAH)...
