Dopamine Protects Cerebral Autoregulation and Prevents Hippocampal Necrosis after Traumatic Brain Injury via Block of ERK MAPK in Juvenile Pigs

Highlights • Traumatic brain injury (TBI) impairs cerebral autoregulation. • CPP is normalized after TBI by use of vasoactive agents to increase MAP. • Effects of norepinephrine, epinephrine, phenylephrine are sex and age dependent. • Dopamine improves outcome after TBI independent of age and sex. •...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Traumatic brain injury (TBI) impairs cerebral autoregulation. • CPP is normalized after TBI by use of vasoactive agents to increase MAP. • Effects of norepinephrine, epinephrine, phenylephrine are sex and age dependent. • Dopamine improves outcome after TBI independent of age and sex. • Dopamine should be considered the drug of choice in treatment of pediatric TBI.
