Abstract 93: Androgen Regulation of Protection Provided by Inhibition of TRPM2 Channels against Experimental Stroke in Mice

Abstract: Introduction: Stroke is a sexually dimorphic disease that affects men more severely than women. Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels have been implicated in ischemia-induced neuronal damage. We recently demonstrated that pharmacological and genetic inhibition of TRPM2, a member of the TRP channel superfamily, protects against cerebral ischemia in male mice, while having no effect in females. In addition, TRPM2 channels are activated by adenine dinucleotide phosphate ribose (ADPr) generated b… Show more
