Hypoxia-inducible protein 2 mediates metabolic adaptation of Ly6ChighLy6Glow monocytes after stroke

Ly6Chigh monocytes, previously recognized as a pro-inflammatory subset, play critical roles in secondary neuroinflammation in the stroke brain. Growing evidence reveals increased infiltration of myeloid cells with substantial heterogeneity, raising the question of how Ly6Chigh monocyte-derived macrophages in the stroke brain adapt to the ischemic environment. Here, by combining analysis of stroke patient samples with in vivo and in vitro murine studies and single-cell transcriptomic profiling, w
