Mucosal tolerance to E-selectin provides protection against cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats

Mucosal tolerance to E-selectin after booster tolerization could relieve cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury and induce ischemia tolerance in Wistar rats. The mechanisms may involve decreased frequencies of CD8+ T cells in blood, increased plasma SOD activity, heightened mRNA expression of IL-10 and lowered mRNA expression of E-selectin in the ischemic hemisphere.
