Abstract:
Inflammation and immunity are important parts of the pathophysiology of cerebrovascular diseases, as their dynamic changes affect the development and prognosis of cerebrovascular diseases. Inflammatory response causes brain lesions in the acute phase of ischemic stroke, and is also involved in brain damage in aging-related cerebral small vessel disease, resulting in cognitive dysfunction such as vascular dementia. This article reviews the research progress of the interaction mechanism between inflammation, immunity and cerebrovascular disease, in order to better understand and explore the potential of immune regulation in treatment.
