Decreased IL-33 in the brain following repetitive mild traumatic brain injury contributes to cognitive impairment by inhibiting microglial phagocytosis
RESEARCH | Updated:2026-03-26
    • Decreased IL-33 in the brain following repetitive mild traumatic brain injury contributes to cognitive impairment by inhibiting microglial phagocytosis

    • “A new study explores the role of IL-33 in repetitive mild traumatic brain injury (rmTBI). Researchers used an rmTBI mouse model to investigate how IL-33 affects cognitive function and neuroinflammation. The study found that IL-33 enhances microglial phagocytosis and reduces neuronal damage, suggesting it could be a therapeutic target for improving neurological outcomes in rmTBI.”
