Inflammation after Stroke: A Local Rather Than Systemic Response?
Abstract
After injury, activation and recruitment of inflammatory and immune cells has been thought to occur throughout the whole body. A recent study shows that after brain injury in mice, immune cells are primarily recruited from nearby skull bone marrow and invade the brain through microscopic vascular channels. Manipulation of this process may provide new therapeutic options.
Keywords: immune cell recruitment; ischemia; neutrophils; vascular channels.
