NE52-QQ57 attenuates post-ischemia protein phosphorylation in the mouse brain
Introduction Cerebral ischemia induces a reduction in brain pH. GPR4, a proton-sensing G protein-coupled receptor is highly expressed in vascular endothelial cells. Pharmacological inhibition of GPR4 with NE52-QQ57 (NEQQ) reduces ischemia-induced blood-brain barrier (BBB) disruption and brain injury. To facilitate targ...
