Abstract
Cerebrovascular disease is the second-leading cause of death and disability worldwide, with stroke being the most common cause. In ischemic stroke, several processes combine to produce immunosuppression, leaving the post-stroke body susceptible to infection, which in turn affects neuroinflammation. Interleukin-33 (IL-33), a member of the interleukin-1 family (IL-1), functions as a modulator of immune responses and inflammation, playing a crucial role in the establishment of immunologic responses. IL-33 has been shown to have a protective effect on brain injury and represents a potential target by modulating inflammatory cytokines and stimulating immune regulatory cells. With an emphasis on preclinical and clinical studies, this review covers the impact of IL-33 on immune system mechanisms following ischemic stroke.
