Summary

The activation of the brain innate immune system in response to injury, infection, or neurodegeneration. Characterized by microglial activation, astrocyte reactivity, and release of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, TNF-α, IL-6). Chronic neuroinflammation is a hallmark of Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and ALS.
