Article Synopsis
- Cerebral-cardiac syndrome (CCS) refers to cardiac damage caused by ischemic stroke, linked to macrophages, but their varying roles are not well understood.
- A mouse model of ischemic stroke revealed that heart damage was marked by significant heart dysfunction and increased infiltration of proinflammatory monocyte-derived macrophages.
- The study indicates that activated cardiac sympathetic nerves promote macrophage infiltration in the heart, which may contribute to the cardiac dysfunction seen in CCS, suggesting a possible mechanism linking these elements.
