Excerpt
This Special Issue of Translational Stroke Research is focused on the protein modification and degradation pathways after brain ischemia and is a continuation of a previous special issue in this journal entitled: “The protein degradation pathways after brain ischemia” [
1]. Articles in this current issue summarize recent developments and understanding of protein aggregation, modification, and degradation triggered by ischemic insult. This Special Issue seeks to reiterate that disruption in cellular protein metabolism remains an important aspect of ischemic brain injury and that mechanisms of acute neuronal cell death are closely related to those of neurodegenerative disease. …
