Neurotrophic factors (NFs) are important molecules responsible for development, differentiation, regeneration, and maintenance of new and mature neurons. Neurotrophic factors act as neurocytokines and may assist with the regulation of axonal and dendritic arrangements and synaptic plasticity between neurons themselves or with other non-neural target tissues. In this study, we analyze the levels of two NFs: glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) and nerve growth factor (NGF). Cardiomyocytes produce these neurotrophic factors which assist with the innervation pattern of the heart. The heart is innervated by the two branches of the autonomic nervous system; namely the sympathetic nervous system and …

Rowan-Virtua Research Day
In the United States, approximately 800,000 individuals experience a stroke every year
Nearly 25% of strokes are recurrent
Cryptogenic strokes, or those with unknown causes after testing, make up a significant portion of ischemic strokes, as many as 32%
Retrograde thromboembolic events originating from the proximal descending thoracic aorta should be considered as a potential etiology in cryptogenic strokes
The appropriate management of embolic events from aortic atheroma needs further research
Here, we present a case of a 55-year-old male who had recurrent cryptogenic strokes whose origin was discovered to stem from retrograde embolic phenomena from atheroma located within the …
