FTY720 attenuates iron deposition and glial responses in improving delayed lesion and long-term outcomes of collagenase-induced intracerebral hemorrhage

Most intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) survivors have poor long-term outcomes, such as cognitive deficits and depression. Delayed lesions of ICH include neuron loss and white matter injury and the pathology of the lesions involves iron deposition and glial responses, which contribute to depressive-like behavior and cognitive impairment in animals. This study aimed to investigate the effects of FTY720 (0.3 mg/kg/day for 4 weeks) on iron deposition,...
