1 We therefore assessed the hypothesis that sevoflurane pretreatment protected blood-brain-barrier (BBB) via suppression of cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) after ischemia. Sevoflurane matrix metallopeptidase 2 Homo sapiens
2 The data showed that sevoflurane pretreatment markedly improved BBB integrity and neurological outcomes after ischemia, robustly suppressed ischemia-induced decreases of occludin and increases of intracellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1), MMP-2, MMP-9 and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1).
