Traumatic brain injury (TBI) causes neuroinflammation and can lead to long-term neurological dysfunction, even in cases of mild TBI (mTBI). Despite the substantial burden of this disease, the management of TBI is precluded by an incomplete understanding of its cellular mechanisms. Sphingolipids (SPL) and their metabolites have emerged as key orchestrators of biological processes related to tissue injury, neuroinflammation, and inflammation resolution. No study so far has investigated comprehensive sphingolipid profile changes immediately following TBI in animal models or human cases. In this study, sphingolipid metabolite composition was examined during the acute phases in brain tissue and plasma of mice following mTBI.
