Early toll‐like receptor 4 blockade reduces ROS and inflammation triggered by microglial pro‐inflammatory phenotype in rodent and human brain ischaemia models

Abstract

TLR4 signalling has a causal role in the inflammation associated with a poor post-stroke outcome. Importantly, its inhibition by eritoran (E5564) provides neuroprotection both in vitro and in vivo, including in human tissue, suggesting a promising new therapeutic approach for ischaemic stroke.
