Tissue Plasminogen Activator for preclinical stroke research: Neither “rat” nor “human” dose mimics clinical recanalization in a carotid occlusion model

Tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) is the only approved thrombolytic therapy for acute ischemic stroke, yet many patients do not recanalize. Enhancing thrombolytic efficacy of tPA is a major focus of stroke research. Traditionally, a “rat dose” of 10 mg/kg has been used in rodent models. Recent stud...
