| Abstract | Intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) has no specific treatment, but accounts for up to 15% of all strokes and has the highest mortality. Fingolimod (FTY720) is an immunomodulator approved for the management of multiple sclerosis, with abundant evidence of efficacy in experimental ischemic stroke, and more limited evidence in experimental ICH. The goal of this study was to confirm the efficacy of fingolimod in experimental ICH using rigorous and statistically well-powered studies. ICH was induced in C57BL/6JOlaHsd male and female mice by intrastriatal bacterial collagenase injection. Fingolimod (0.5 mg/kg) or saline was administered intraperitoneally after 0.5, 24 and 72 hours, in a randomized and blinded manner. Functional improvement with cylinder, wire hanging, and foot fault tests was evaluated one and two weeks later. Lesion volume and hemispheric atrophy were quantified at the 14-day endpoint. There was a higher mortality in saline-treated females compared to fingolimod-treated females and saline-treated males. There was no treatment- or gender-related difference in the behavioural tests. Histological outcome measures did not differ between any of the groups. These results, contrasting with those of previous studies of fingolimod in experimental ICH, emphasize the importance of rigorous testing of this agent in models more representative of the clinical situation. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
