Implanting electrodes into the brain triggers inflammation by activating a group of immune signaling proteins called the inflammasome which detects infection and, in turn, prompts a strong inflammatory response, a new study shows. These findings may open new avenues to improve deep brain stimulation, a type of therapy used in Parkinsons disease and other neurological disorders to ease patients symptoms. Uncovering multiple mediators that contribute to neuroinflammation will build a greater understanding of the intricate immune response following [electrode] insertion as well as serve to reveal potential therapeutic targets to minimize neuroinflammation, the researchers wrote Continue reading →
