Following injury in the brain, apoptosis or necrosis may occur easily, leading to various functional disabilities. Neuronal death is associated with a number of neurological disorders including hypoxic ischemia, epileptic seizures, and neurodegenerative diseases.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe brain subjected to injury is regarded to be responsible for the alterations in neurotransmission processes, resulting in functional changes. Oxidative stress produced by reactive oxygen species has been shown to be related to the death of neurons in traumatic injury, stroke, and neurodegenerative diseases. Therefore, scavenging or decreasing free radicals may be crucial for preventing neural tissues from harmful adversities in the brain. Neurotrophic factors, bioactive compounds, dietary nutrients, or cell engineering may ameliorate the pathological processes related to neuronal death or neurodegeneration and appear beneficial for improving neuroprotection. As a result of neuronal death or neuroprotection, the brain undergoes activity-dependent long-lasting changes in synaptic transmission, which is also known as functional plasticity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNeuroprotection implying the rescue from neuronal death is now becoming one of global health concerns. This Special Issue attempts to explore the recent advances in neuroprotection related to the brain. This Special Issue welcomes original research or review papers demonstrating the mechanisms of neuroprotection against brain injury using in vivo or in vitro models of animals as well as in clinical settings. The issues in a paper should be supported by sufficient data or evidence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eProf. Bae Hwan Lee\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGuest Editor\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Bae Hwan Lee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3036519947\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783036519944\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Mdpi AG\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/27\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 408\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.37lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.61h x 6.69w x 1.25d","brand":"Bae Hwan Lee","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47305474572543,"sku":"9783036519944","price":98.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6bf9bb93-23a1-428e-860d-280de091197a.jpg?v=1758830980","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/neuroprotection-bae-hwan-lee-9783036519944","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
