Neuroimmune and neuroinflammation response for traumatic brain injury

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is one of the major diseases leading to mortality and disability, causing a serious disease burden on individuals' ordinary lives as well as socioeconomics. In primary injury, neuroimmune and neuroinflammation are both responsible for the TBI. Besides, extensive and sustained injury induced by neuroimmune and neuroinflammation also prolongs the course and worsens prognosis of TBI. Therefore, this review aims to explore the role of neuroimmune, neuroinflammation and factors associated them in TBI as well as the therapies for TBI. Thus, we conducted by searching PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases for articles published between 2010 and 2023. Keywords included “traumatic brain injury,” “neuroimmune response,” “neuroinflammation,” “astrocytes,” “microglia,” and “NLRP3.” Articles were selected based on relevance and quality of evidence. On this basis, we provide the cellular and molecular mechanisms of TBI-induced both neuroimmune and neuroinflammation response, as well as the different factors affecting them, are introduced based on physiology of TBI, which supply a clear overview in TBI-induced chain-reacting, for a better understanding of TBI and to offer more thoughts on the future therapies for TBI.
