Previous studies have identified that progesterone may be neuroprotective following traumatic brain injury (TBI). However, most of these have utilized models of TBI that produce a focal lesion or a significant ischemic component, neither of which is necessarily present in diffuse TBI. The current study uses a model of diffuse TBI in rats to examine the effects of progesterone on morphological changes...
Females have reduced brain edema compared to males after experimental brain trauma, although contradictory reports exist as to whether this is due to either estrogen or progesterone. In the present study, we demonstrate in both male and ovariectomized female rats that a single physiological dose of either hormone at 30 min after diffuse traumatic brain injury reduces both blood brain barrier permeability...
