    Summary
    We found that administration with 50mg/kg NAD(+) led to significant decreases in infarct size, edema formation, and neurological deficits at 48h after ischemia.
    2 context sentences
    Summary · context
    In this study, we used a mouse model of brain ischemia to test our hypothesis that NAD(+) decreases ischemic brain damage partially by preventing autophagy.
    Summary · context
    Adult male mice were subjected to transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAO) for 90min, and NAD(+) was administered intraperitoneally (i.p.) immediately after reperfusion started.
