TLDR
The peculiar activation pattern and massive increase of antigen-presenting cells in temporal conjunction with regulatory cells might provide additional insight into poststroke immune regulation.
Abstract
Background and Purpose— Ischemic stroke leads to significant morbidity and mortality in the Western world Early reperfusion strategies remain the treatment of choice but can initiate and augment an inflammatory response causing secondary brain damage The understanding of postischemic inflammation is very limited The objectives of this study were to define the temporal and spatial infiltration of immune cell populations and their activation patterns in a murine cerebral ischemia–reperfusion injury model Methods— Transient middle cerebral artery occlusion was induced for 1 hour followed by 12-hour to 7-day reperfusion in C57/BL6 mice Immunohistochemistry and flow cytometry were used to quantify the infiltrating immune cell subsets Results— Accumulation of microglia and infiltration of the ischemic hemisphere by macrophages, lymphocytes, and dendritic cells (DCs) preceded the neutrophilic influx DCs were found to increase 20-fold and constituted a substantial proportion of infiltrating cells DCs exhi

Changes in the structure of retinal layers over time in non-arteritic anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy.

TL;DR: The rate of thickness changes in the peripapillary RNFL, GCIPL, INL, and ONL by 2–5 months was associated with visual field outcomes and the change of thickness in temporal and superior peripAPillary R NFL, GC IPL, inner nuclear layer (INL), and ONl by 2-5 months were associated with the final visual field results.

Prognostic value of the systemic inflammation response index in patients with acute ischemic stroke

TL;DR: This study aims to investigate the association between SIRI and the prognosis of AIS and indicates inflammation status and prognosis in acute ischemic stroke is unclear.

Reduction of the expression and production of adhesion molecules and chemokines by brain endothelial cells in response to tumor necrosis factor‐α and interleukin‐17 in hypothermia

TL;DR: The effects of hypothermia and hyperthermia on the expression and production of adhesion molecules and chemokines by brain endothelial cells in response to tumor necrosis factor (TNF)‐α and interleukin (IL)‐17 are examined in an attempt to identify the mechanisms responsible for the neuroprotection conferred by therapeutic Hypothermia.

Contribution of polymorphonuclear neutrophils in the blood periphery to ischemic brain injury.

TL;DR: PMNs abundantly accumulate in ischemic brain tissue in response to stroke both in rodents and human patients, where they massively release enzymes, such as myeloperoxidase and elastase, and reactive oxygen species (ROS), which are known contributors toIschemic injury.

The inflammatory response in stroke.

TL;DR: The role of specific cell types including leukocytes, endothelium, glia, microglia, the extracellular matrix and neurons, and mediators produced by inflammatory cells such as cytokines, chemokines, reactive oxygen species and arachidonic acid metabolites are reviewed.

A synthetic glycolipid prevents autoimmune encephalomyelitis by inducing TH2 bias of natural killer T cells.

TL;DR: A synthetic glycolipid ligand for CD1d-restricted natural killer T (NKT) cells expressing the semi-invariant T-cell receptor (Vα14+) is preventive against EAE and targeting NKT cells with this ligand may be an attractive means for intervening in human autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis.
