The pivotal role of the NLRC4 inflammasome in neuroinflammation after intracerebral hemorrhage in rats

Brain hemorrhage: Reducing inflammation and brain damage Treatments that target the proteins responsible for inflammation might reduce brain damage after a hemorrhage. Sudden bleeding into the brain, known as intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), is associated with strokes and head injuries. Inflammation...
