Hypoxia Inducible Factor 1α Plays a Key Role in Remote Ischemic Preconditioning Against Stroke by Modulating Inflammatory Responses in Rats

BackgroundLimb remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) protects against brain injury induced by stroke, but the underlying protective mechanisms remain unknown. As hypoxia inducible factor 1α (HIF‐1α) is neuroprotective in stroke and mediates neuroinflammation, we tested the hypothesis that HIF‐1α is...
