Difference between Neurotoxin and Stroke

Neurotoxin vs. Stroke

Neurotoxins are toxins that are poisonous or destructive to nerve tissue (causing neurotoxicity). A stroke is a medical condition in which poor blood flow to the brain results in cell death.

Similarities between Neurotoxin and Stroke

Neurotoxin and Stroke have 22 things in common (in Unionpedia): Adenosine triphosphate, Antioxidant, Apoptosis, Blood–brain barrier, Brain, Cellular respiration, Cerebellum, Cerebral edema, Cerebrospinal fluid, Death, Dementia, Ischemia, Mitochondrion, Motor coordination, Neurology, Paralysis, Reactive oxygen species, Skin, Spasticity, Spinal cord, Stroke, Ventricular system.

Adenosine triphosphate

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is a complex organic chemical that participates in many processes.

Antioxidant

Antioxidants are molecules that inhibit the oxidation of other molecules.

Apoptosis

Apoptosis (from Ancient Greek ἀπόπτωσις "falling off") is a process of programmed cell death that occurs in multicellular organisms.

Blood–brain barrier

The blood–brain barrier (BBB) is a highly selective semipermeable membrane barrier that separates the circulating blood from the brain and extracellular fluid in the central nervous system (CNS).

Brain

The brain is an organ that serves as the center of the nervous system in all vertebrate and most invertebrate animals.

Cellular respiration

Cellular respiration is a set of metabolic reactions and processes that take place in the cells of organisms to convert biochemical energy from nutrients into adenosine triphosphate (ATP), and then release waste products.

Cerebellum

The cerebellum (Latin for "little brain") is a major feature of the hindbrain of all vertebrates.

Cerebral edema

Cerebral edema is excess accumulation of fluid in the intracellular or extracellular spaces of the brain.

Cerebrospinal fluid

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is a clear, colorless body fluid found in the brain and spinal cord.

Death

Death is the cessation of all biological functions that sustain a living organism.

Dementia

Dementia is a broad category of brain diseases that cause a long-term and often gradual decrease in the ability to think and remember that is great enough to affect a person's daily functioning.

Ischemia

Ischemia or ischaemia is a restriction in blood supply to tissues, causing a shortage of oxygen that is needed for cellular metabolism (to keep tissue alive).

Mitochondrion

The mitochondrion (plural mitochondria) is a double-membrane-bound organelle found in most eukaryotic organisms.

Motor coordination

Motor coordination is the combination of body movements created with the kinematic (such as spatial direction) and kinetic (force) parameters that result in intended actions.

Neurology

Neurology (from νεῦρον (neûron), "string, nerve" and the suffix -logia, "study of") is a branch of medicine dealing with disorders of the nervous system.

Paralysis

Paralysis is a loss of muscle function for one or more muscles.

Reactive oxygen species

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are chemically reactive chemical species containing oxygen.

Spasticity

Spasticity is a feature of altered skeletal muscle performance with a combination of paralysis, increased tendon reflex activity, and hypertonia.

Spinal cord

The spinal cord is a long, thin, tubular bundle of nervous tissue and support cells that extends from the medulla oblongata in the brainstem to the lumbar region of the vertebral column.

Stroke

A stroke is a medical condition in which poor blood flow to the brain results in cell death.

Ventricular system

The ventricular system is a set of four interconnected cavities (ventricles) in the brain, where the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is produced.
