In conclusion, 002C-3 shows a neuroprotective effect on tMCAO injury in mice, and its mechanisms may be associated with alleviation of blood-brain barrier damage caused by the activation of MMPs, inhibition of autophagy, and stimulation of calcium signals related to cell survival. These findings suggest that 002C-3 is a neuroprotective agent that acts on multiple pathways.展开更多
