The polypeptide drug cortexin and the synthetic peptide drug cortagen accelerate the recovery of disturbed individual behavior of ischemic rats with different resistance to hypoxia (high and low resistant rats). In addition, both drugs prevented an excessive activation of lipid peroxidation and a decrease in the antioxidant activity in the brain tissues. The obtained results suggest that cortexin and cortagen can be used for increasing the efficacy of neuroprotective therapy in cases of chronic brain ischemia.
