Abstract: Rats after permanent bilateral common carotid artery ligation would result in cerebral blood flow reduction, learning and memory dysfunction, neuronal injury and death, synaptic and dendritic injury, and neuroinflammation, etc., which reproduce the pathology and clinical symptoms of human vascular dementia, that help for further research on pathophysiology and treatment of vascular dementia.
