Mild traumatic brain injury/ concussion initiates an atypical astrocyte response caused by blood-brain barrier dysfunction
2021-05-28
Abstract excerpt
Mild traumatic brain injury/ concussion (mTBI) account for 70-90% of all reported TBI cases and cause long lasting neurological consequences in 10 to 40% of patients. Recent clinical studies revealed increased blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability in mTBI patients, which correlated with secondary damage after mTBI. However, the cascade of cellular events initiated by exposure to blood-borne factors resulting in s...
