Stroke of luck: Scientists discover target for stroke therapy in blood-brain barrier
The blood-brain barrier prevents immune cells from circulating freely in the brain, and the breakdown of its function is a major cause of post-stroke inflammation. Now, for the first time, researchers have identified how a toxic stroke byproduct, acrolein, could activate the barrier-degrading enzyme proheparanase (proHPSE). The research group has discovered that proHPSE degrades the glycocalyx within the post-stroke brain's blood vessels, providing hope for new and effective therapeutics against post-stroke inflammation.
