Radon Inhalation Protects Against Transient Global Cerebral Ischemic Injury in Gerbils

Although brain disorders are not the main indication for radon therapy, our previous study suggested that radon inhalation therapy might mitigate brain disorders. In this study, we assessed whether radon inhalation protects against transient global cerebral ischemic injury in gerbils. Gerbils were treated with inhaled radon at a concentration of 2,000 Bq/m3 for 24 h. After radon inhalation, transient global cerebral ischemia was induced by...
