Fig. 5. Possible mechanisms underlying the involvement of TRPV4 in neuronal injury in TLE.

Fig. 5

Activation of TRPV4 leads to microglial cell and astroycte activation, and the increase of NLRP3 inflammasome expression to produce more proinflammatory cytokines, which is involved in the neuronal injury in TLE. Blocking TRPV4 may attenuate neuronal injury post SE through inhibiting immuno-inflammatory response
