摘要
The present invention is directed to compositions and methods for treating cerebral edema and cell death in neurological conditions characterized by disruption of the architecture of the neurovascular unit with increase in the permeability of the NVU, particularly for treating stroke. One aspect of the present invention relates to a composition comprising an agent that interferes with a TWEAK-mediated signaling pathway. Another aspect of the present invention relates to a method of using a composition which comprises an agent that inhibits Fn14 activity or Fn14 expression for the prevention and/or treatment of cerebral edema and cell death occurring in certain neurological conditions such as cerebral ischemia.
