Dual effect of microglia on ischemic stroke: a review / 中国药理学与毒理学杂志

Ischemic brain injury is the main cause of high mortality,high disability and high recurrence rates in ischemic stroke.The activation and differentiation of microglia are associated with inflammatory responses of ischemic brain injury,playing an important role in the occurrence,development and outcome of ischemic stroke.In addition,there is no effective treatment for ischemic stroke.Thus,it is of clinical significance to investigate regulatory mechanisms of microglia for ischemic stroke treatment.This review introduces the dual effect of microglia on ischemic stroke and research progress in associated treatment for ischemic stroke,hoping to provide new ideas for investigating targeted intervention therapies.
