Scientific Background | Terazosin Hydrochloride, traditionally used as an alpha1-adrenergic receptor antagonist, has gained attention in neuroscience for its protective effects in models of stroke and sepsis. It activates phosphoglycerate kinase 1 (Pgk1) and heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90), leading to anti-apoptotic effects in macrophages. These mechanisms suggest potential neuroprotective roles, particularly in conditions involving ischemic injury and neuroinflammation. Its ability to modulate cell survival pathways makes it a candidate for further exploration in neurodegenerative disease models. |
