摘要：In the last century,increasing knowledge about glial cells has revealed their importance in brain physiology and disease and an exciting potential target for new therapeutic interventions(Hernández et al.,2021).
Ischemic stroke is the most common of all types of stroke.As the second leading cause of disability and mortality,ischemic stroke is a serious socio-economic burden worldwide.Although it has been strongly associated with aging,during 2020 COVID-19 emerged as a new risk factor for ischemic stroke in younger patients(Cagnazzo et al.,2021).The only therapy or intervention currently available for humans is early reperfusion after the onset of the first symptoms.However,due to the high risk of brain hemorrhage,these treatments are suitable for only a small percentage of patients.Moreover,reperfusion does not prevent post-injury neurodegeneration,hence the importance of finding new therapeutic alternatives to ameliorate ischemic damage and improve post-stroke quality of life.
