RESUMO
The impact of stroke on global health is profound, with both high mortality and morbidity rates. This condition can result from cerebral ischemia, intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), and subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). The pathophysiology of stroke involves secondary damage and irreversible loss of neuronal function. Post-translational modifications (PTMs) have been recognized as crucial regulatory mechanisms in ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke-induced brain injury. These PTMs include phosphorylation, glycosylation, ubiquitination, SUMOylation, acetylation, and succinylation. This comprehensive review delves into recent research on the PTMs landscape associated with neuroinflammation and neuronal death specific to cerebral ischemia, ICH, and SAH. This review aims to explain the role of PTMs in regulating pathologic mechanisms and present critical techniques and proteomic strategies for identifying PTMs. This knowledge helps us comprehend the underlying mechanisms of stroke injury and repair processes, leading to the development of innovative treatment strategies. Importantly, this review underscores the significance of exploring PTMs to understand the pathophysiology of stroke.
