Stroke can significantly impact the immune system by triggering a systemic inflammatory response. This response can lead to the activation of immune cells and the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines, which may contribute to further brain injury and complications. Additionally, stroke can cause immune suppression, making the body more susceptible to infections, particularly in the respiratory and urinary tracts. Overall, the dual nature of the immune response following a stroke can complicate recovery and influence long-term outcomes.
