Neuroprotection refers to the preservation of neuronal structure and function. It is a therapy option for a variety of central nervous system (CNS) disorders comprising spinal cord injury, neurodegenerative diseases, traumatic brain injury, stroke and acute control of neurotoxin ingestion. Neuroprotection is focused on stopping or slowing down the loss of neurons in order to avoid or limit disease progression and consequent damage. Some of the mechanisms associated with neuronal injury are increased levels in oxidative stress, energy failure, decreased delivery of oxygen and glucose to the brain, and iron accumulation. Neurotrophic factors, bioactive substances, cell engineering, and dietary nutrients may facilitate neuroprotection by improving pathogenic processes associated with neuronal death or degeneration. This book unravels the recent studies on neuroprotection. The readers would gain knowledge that would broaden their perspective about this area of neurology. The book will serve as a valuable source of reference for graduate and postgraduate students.
