Atorvastatin protects against cerebral ischemia/ reperfusion injury through anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects

In addition to its lipid-lowering effect, atorvastatin exerts anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects as well. In this study, we hypothesized that atorvastatin could protect against cerebral isch-emia/reperfusion injury. The middle cerebral artery ischemia/reperfusion model was established, and at...
