Leukemia inhibitory factor modulates the peripheral immune response in a rat model of emergent large vessel occlusion

Abstract Background The migration of peripheral immune cells and splenocytes to the ischemic brain is one of the major causes of delayed neuroinflammation after permanent large vessel stroke. Other groups have demonstrated that leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF), a cytokine that promotes neural cell s...
