DOI: 10.1007/s10571-018-0599-0
Abstract: Minocycline, an anti-infective agent of a tetracycline derivative, is reported to improve behavioral functional recovery after cerebral ischemia via enhancing the levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). However, the precise mechanisms that minocycline targets to… read more here.
