Abstract

Stroke is the leading cause of long-term disability, demanding an ever-increasing need to find treatment. Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels are nonselective Ca2+-permeable channels, among which TRPC, TRPM, and TRPV are widely expressed in the brain. Dysfunction of the blood brain barrier (BBB) is a core feature of stroke and is associated with severity of injury. As studies have shown, TRP channels influence various neuronal functions by regulating the BBB. Here, we briefly review the role of TRP channel in the BBB dysfunction after stroke, and explore the therapeutic potential of TRP-targeted therapy.

Keywords: Transient receptor potential; blood brain barrier; review; stroke; therapy.
