Summary
Using a mouse model of ischemic stroke, it has been suggested that post-infarction inflammation is suppressed in serum and blood cells during the chronic phase of cerebral infarction. We will clarify the factors that confer inflammatory resistance to cerebral infarction that exist in blood after cerebral infarction.
