Polysialylation of NCAM is upregulated by hyperthermia and participates in heat shock preconditioning-induced neuroprotection

“Brain tolerance” – a phenomenon in which a subtoxic challenge confers resistance to subsequent brain injuries – provides an ideal opportunity for investigating endogenous neuroprotective mechanisms. We investigated the potential role of the polysialylated (PSA) form of neural cell adhesion molecule...
