Therapeutic time window for conivaptan treatment against stroke-evoked brain edema and blood-brain barrier disruption in mice

BACKGROUND: Ischemic stroke is often complicated by brain edema, disruption of blood-brain barrier (BBB), and uncontrolled release of arginine-vasopressin (AVP). Conivaptan, a V1a and V2 receptor antagonist, reduces brain edema and minimizes damage to the blood-brain barrier after stroke. Most strok...
