Abstract

Background Arterial hypertension (HTN) is associated with accelerated vascular aging, cerebral microvascular injury, and cognitive decline. Anti-NR2/GluN2 (NR2) antibodies may be related to N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR)-mediated neuronal-ischemic injury, although their clinical significance in HTN requires further clarification.
