Disulfidptosis and its Role in Peripheral Blood Immune Cells after a Stroke: A New Frontier in Stroke Pathogenesis

Stroke-Induced Immunodepression (SIID) is characterized by apoptosis in blood immune populations, such as T cells, B cells, NK cells, and monocytes, leading to the clinical presentation of lymphopenia. Disulfidptosis is a novel form of programmed cell death characterized by accumulating disulfide bonds in the cytoplasm, resulting in cellular dysfunction and eventual cell death.
