neuroinflammation

3 articles

Neuroinflammation refers to inflammatory responses within the nervous system, often driven by immune cells reacting to injury, infection, or toxic compounds. While not a process in plants themselves, it is a key area of biomedical research where plant-derived compounds are studied for their potential to modulate or suppress these inflammatory pathways. Plant science contributes by identifying and characterizing bioactive phytochemicals—such as terpenoids and flavonoids—that show promise as natural anti-neuroinflammatory agents.
