Genetic Modulators of Traumatic Brain Injury in Animal Models and the Impact of Sex-Dependent Effects.

abstract：:Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is one of the most acute degenerative pathologies in the central nervous system, and in vivo indices enabling an assessment of TBI on a mechanistic basis have yet to be established. The aim of this work was to pursue neuroinflammatory changes and their link to functional disruptions of tra...
