The mechanisms underlying the brain response to systemic inflammation remain unclear. In this issue of Neuron, Serrats and colleagues demonstrate that two cell types that produce prostaglandins that act on the brain, perivascular and endothelial cells, have an unexpectedly complex interaction in regulating the timing and types of brain responses that occur.
系统性炎症引起大脑反应的机制尚不清楚。在本期《神经元》杂志上,Serrats 及其同事表明,两种产生作用于大脑的前列腺素的细胞类型——血管周细胞和内皮细胞——在调节发生的大脑反应的时间和类型方面存在着出人意料的复杂相互作用。
