Protein kinase C-delta inhibition protects blood-brain barrier from sepsis-induced vascular damage

Abstract Background Neuroinflammation often develops in sepsis leading to activation of cerebral endothelium, increased permeability of the blood-brain barrier (BBB), and neutrophil infiltration. We have identified protein kinase C-delta (PKCδ) as a critical regulator of the inflammatory response an...
