Summary

With contemporary lifestyle changes and global aging, it is important yet unknown how stress interacts to post-stroke outcomes. This proposal aims to study the link between the stress-responsive FKBP51-related pathways and neural plasticity after stroke, elucidating FKBP5 gene polymorphisms and blood FKBP51 regulation in relation to brain excitability and functions, understanding the effects of transcranial direct current stimulation, and characterizing brain mechanisms for individualized early rehabilitation after stroke.
