Brain injury and immunosuppressionCarlos R. Plata-SalamánDivision of Molecular Biology, School of Life and Health Sciences, University of Delaware, Newark, Delaware 19716-2590, USA e-mail: crps@udel.edu Catecholamine-induced release of the immunosuppressive cytokine IL-10 is associated with an increase in infection and sepsis among patients with acute brain injury (803−813).
