Human Umbilical Cord Blood Cells Protect Against Hypothalamic Apoptosis and Systemic Inflammation Response During Heatstroke in Rats

Intravenous administration of human umbilical cord blood cells (HUCBC) has been shown to improve heatstroke by reducing arterial hypotension as well as cerebral ischemia and damage in a rat model. To extend these findings, we assessed both hypothalamic neuronal apoptosis and systemic inflammatory re...
