Ischemic stroke causes neurological disability in millions of people worldwide each year. At
present, standard therapies are often ineffective in stroke prevention. In this review, we
summarize recent findings on the role of fibroblast growth factors in neuroprotection after
experimental brain ischemia.[Neural Res 1997; 19: 355-356]
