Abstract excerpt
Continuous pre-exposure of immune cells to low level of inflammatory stimuli makes them hyporesponsive to subsequent exposure. This pathophysiological adaptation; known as endotoxin tolerance is a general paradigm behind several disease pathogenesis. Current study deals with this immunosuppression with respect to BV2 microglia. We attempted to investigate their immune response under prolonged endotoxin exposure...
