Moreover, NBTI significantly increased the level of CREB phosphorylation and extracellular adenosine concentration, and decreased the neuronal apoptosis 24 h after MCAO. NBTI treatment reduced the expression of Bax and cleaved caspase-3, while up-regulated Bcl-2 compared with vehicle group. These effects were abolished by H89 pretreatment. Conclusions ENT1 inhibition prevented neuronal apoptosis and improves neurological deficits through cAMP/PKA/CREB/Bcl-2 signaling pathway after MCAO in rats. ENT1 might be an effective target in the treatment strategy for ischemic stroke.The Autobiographical Interview (AI) separates internal (episodic) and external (non-episodic) details from transcribed protocols using an exhaustive and reliable scoring system. While the details comprising the internal composite are centered on elements of episodic memory, external details are more heterogeneous as they are meant to capture a variety of non-episodic utterances general semantics, different types of personal semantics details, metacognitive statements, repetitions, and details about off topic events. Elevated external details are consistently observed in aging and in neurodegenerative diseases. In the present study, we augmented the AI scoring system to differentiate subtypes of external details to test whether the elevation of these details in aging and frontotemporal lobar degeneration (including mixed frontotemporal/semantic dementia [FTD/SD] and progressive non-fluent aphasia [PNFA]) would be specific to general and personal semantics or would concern all subtypes. Specifically, we separated general semantic details from personal semantic details (including autobiographical facts, self-knowledge, and repeated events). With aging, external detail elevation was observed for general and personal semantic d
