Reasons why the brain is so vulnerable to heat stroke damage extend beyond the direct effects of heat on cellular proteins. During heat stroke, our bodies react with an inflammatory response similar to what we experience during infection. This reaction can damage the blood-brain barrier. Our bloodstream transports waste products to places like our kidneys, so it contains many substances we want to keep away from brain cells. A damaged blood-brain barrier allows leakage from the blood stream, introducing potentially toxic products into the brain and causing swelling.
