REDUCING PERIPHERAL INFLAMMATION WITH INFLIXIMAB REDUCES NEUROINFLAMMATION AND IMPROVES COGNITION IN RATS WITH HEPATIC ENCEPHALOPATHY
Inflammation contributes to cognitive impairment in patients with hepatic encephalopathy (HE). However, the process by which peripheral inflammation results in cognitive impairment remains unclear. In animal models, neuroinflammation and altered neurotransmission mediate cognitive impairment. Taking...
