Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Spinal cord injury (SCI) triggers a complex secondary cascade, the defining feature of which is neuroinflammation. This amplifies tissue damage and impedes neurological recovery. Microglial polarization is a critical event in this process, yet effective modulation strategies remain limited. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to investigate whether gastrodin (GAS), a natural phenolic glycoside, could provide...
