Adrenergic-mediated loss of splenic marginal zone B cells contributes to infection susceptibility after stroke
Risk of infection is high after stroke, but the causes are not clear. Here the authors implicate altered beta–adrenergic signalling after stroke that results in a reduction in IgM-mediated protection by marginal zone B cells.
