MBL2 and brain injury: Unlike after tMCAo, after traumatic brain injury, the presence of MBL-C in the brain is reported to occur more quickly after injury (30 min) than that of MBL-A.14 In line with this observation, MBL-C has been proposed as the main therapeutic target for traumatic brain injury.15 The different temporal patterns of MBL isoform deposition in different brain injury models indicate the availability of specific danger-associated molecular patterns for the response to brain insults.
