Background and Objective:Brain edema is a common pathological change in neurology and other critical conditions, it is the main cause of death and disability, and it is also the main pathophysical change in cerebral diseases, space-occupying diseases in the brain, brain trauma and inflammation that cause neurological disfunction. Mechanism of brain edema has close relationship with damage to blood-brain barrier (BBB) and disfunction of brain cell metabolism. Vasogenic brain edema (VBE) has protein-rich contents and is difficult to be absorbed; it has a long duration and high mortality rate. Its characters include:(1) Edema mainly happens in white matter and astrocytes change the most; (2) Permeability of cerebral capillary increases and BBB is damaged; (3) It is protein-rich edema. It is a very important task in hundreds of years for neurologists to find mechanism and treating methods of VBE. Though there are many hypotheses of VBE including micro-circulation theory, sodium-pump theory, exiting amino acid theory, energy-depletion theory, free-radical theory, calcium-channel theory, etc. it is hard to clarify the mechanism with single theory.BBB is modulating interface between blood and brain tissue that restricts certain substances in or out brain tissue, which is composed of three parts including...
