Plasma from healthy donors protects blood–brain barrier integrity via FGF21 and improves the recovery in a mouse model of cerebral ischaemia
Background Healthy plasma therapy reverses cognitive deficits and promotes neuroplasticity in ageing brain disease. However, whether healthy plasma therapy improve blood–brain barrier integrity after stroke remains unknown.Methods Here, we intravenously injected healthy female mouse plasma into adul...
