Cerebral preconditioning is a phenomenon wherein a mild insult or stress induces cellular and tissue adaptation or tolerance to a later, severe injury, therefore reflecting the efficacy of endogenous mechanisms of cerebrovascular protection. Initially identified for rapid cardiac protection, preconditioning has expanded to all aspects of CNS protection from ischemia, trauma and potentially neurodegeneration. Many different stimuli or stressors have been identified as preconditioning agents, suggesting a downstream convergence of mechanisms and underscoring the potential for translational...

Examining the phenomenon of cerebral preconditioning, which uses mild stressful stimuli to help brain tissue adapt to later, more severe injury, this volume presents the fundamentals and will aid the development of pharmacological neuroprotection agents.
