Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Recently, it has become widely known that neuronal reorganization in the perilesional cortex contributes to some improvement of hemiparesis after stroke. Therefore, various new treatments have been developed to aid in paralysis recovery. Here, we examined in vivo the effects of administration of an activator of protein kinase C (PKC), combined with exercise on functional recovery. The combination of exercise and PKC activator induced further functional recovery compared with exercise alone, and the behavioral effect seen in the administrated animals was dose dependent. Moreover, combining exercise with administration led to increased phosphorylated proteins and serotonin in the perilesional cortex.
