Cellular Mechanisms Underlying Endothelial and Histopathological Alterations Induced by Cerebral Angiography.

ABSTRACT: Background/Objectives: Cerebral angiography is a cornerstone diagnostic and therapeutic procedure for cerebrovascular diseases; however, its potential effects on vascular integrity and cellular homeostasis remain incompletely elucidated. This systematic review aims to comprehensively evaluate endothelial and histopathological alterations induced by cerebral angiographic procedures, with particular emphasis on oxidative stress, inflammation, endothelial dysfunction, and blood-brain barrier disruption. Methods: This systematic review was conducted in accordance with the PRISMA 2020 guidelines. PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases were systematically searched for studies published between 1981 and 2025 using predefined keywords related to cerebral angiography, endothelia
