Changes of the brain activities after chronic restraint stress in rats: A study based on 18F-FDG PET.

abstract：:Heat shock proteins (Hsps) have been regarded as cytoprotectants that protect brain cells from damage encountered following cerebral ischemia or during the progression of neurodegenerative diseases. In this study, we assessed the plasma Hsp70 and Hsp27 levels in not cognitively impaired (NCI) subjects and in patients ...
