Abstract

Neuroinflammation causes morphological and functional changes in the nervous tissue and it can be triggered by different kind of stressors. Progress of neuroinflammation as a result of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is associated with morphological changes in neurons and glial cells, as well as activation of microglia, however the exact molecular mechanisms of these changes are still unknown. In this review we discuss the connections between endocrine, immune and limbic systems during stress, the contributions of each system, the role of blood-brain barrier, as well as current methods and approaches in studying neuroinflammation.
