The Use of Antisense-Mediated Inhibition to Delineate The Role of Inflammatory Agents in The Pathophysiology of Spinal Cord Injury by Damien D. Pearse, Francisco C. Pereira, Katina Chatzipanteli, Francisco W. Dalton Dietrich, Mary Bartlett Bunge

“…During this period, glia and immune cells respond to chemical cues associated with the debris of lysed neurons, disrupted axons, and a broken blood-brain-barrier by releasing a battery of cytokines including tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and, interleukin-β (IL-1β) as well as reactive oxygen species such as nitric oxide (NO-)[2]. The secretion of these factors may be primarily responsible for secondary damage to surrounding uninjured tissue that potentiates the initial injury[3]. …”
