Salvaging the ischaemic penumbra: more than just reperfusion?

Clinical and Experimental Pharmacology & Physiology
Thanh G PhanGeoffrey A Donnan

Abstract

1. The ischaemic penumbra is defined as a moderately hypoperfused region that retains structural integrity but has lost function. In animal models of ischaemic stroke, this region is prone to recurrent anoxic depolarization and will become infarcted if reperfusion does not occur. In the macaque model, an ischaemic penumbra has been identified for up to 3 h after ischaemic stroke onset, whereas in selected human patients it may exist for up to 48 h. 2. Although most definitions of the ischaemic penumbra stress a time-brain volume concept, few incorporate the idea that selective and delayed neuronal injury plays an important role. Thus, in addition to necrotic cell death caused by acute injury, it is important to also consider delayed death mediated by caspase-dependent and -independent apoptotic pathways. 3. Salvage of penumbral tissue is possible if reperfusion (e.g. after thrombolysis) occurs. However, neurons within this salvaged region may be still at risk of further delayed neuronal injury. 4. In the present review, we aim to revisit the concept of the ischaemic penumbra and explore the role of selective and delayed neuronal injury in enlargement of the volume of infarction, as well as pathogenic mechanisms of white matter ...Continue Reading
