Administration of monophosphoryl lipid A shortly after traumatic brain injury blocks the following spatial and avoidance memory loss and neuroinflammation.

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) frequently leads to cognitive impairments. The toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) ligand, Monophosphoryl lipid A (MPL), has shown promise in modulating neuroinflammatory responses after TBI. We investigated the effects of MPL on spatial memory, passive avoidance memory, neuronal survival, and inflammatory/anti-inflammatory cytokines in rat brain following mild-to-moderate TBI.
