Although transient inflammatory signaling supports host defense, debris clearance, and repair, persistent activation contributes to synaptic dysfunction, demyelination, blood\u2013brain barrier disruption, and neuronal loss. Neuregulin-1 (NRG1), a pleiotropic epidermal growth factor family ligand, has emerged as a potential regulator of this balance. Through ErbB receptor complexes, particularly ErbB4-containing dimers, NRG1 influences neural development, myelination, synaptic function, cell survival, and inflammatory signaling. Experimental evidence indicates that NRG1 can restrain NF-\u03baB-dependent transcription, alter microglial activation states, enhance alpha7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor-associated anti-inflammatory signaling, support oligodendroglial lineage cells, and stabilize neurovascular integrity. However, these actions are context-dependent; in spinal nociceptive circuits, ErbB2-linked signaling can promote microglial activation and pain hypersensitivity. This review examines NRG1 isoform biology, ErbB receptor architecture, cellular targets, and disease-specific evidence across demyelinating disease, stroke, traumatic brain injury, neurodegeneration, cerebral malaria, sickle cell disease, and neuropathic pain. Translation will require isoform-specific, receptor-biased, and anatomically targeted approaches supported by rigorous in vivo validation and verified biomarkers.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/cells15181705","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,21]],"date-time":"2026-09-21T09:01:38Z","timestamp":1789981298000},"page":"1705","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Neuregulin-1 as a Context-Dependent Regulator of Neuroinflammation and Neural Repair: Mechanisms, Disease Relevance, and Therapeutic Challenges"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"15","author":[{"given":"Gregory D.","family":"Ford","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anatomy, Howard University College of Medicine, Washington, DC 20059, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0003-2533-1068","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Christopher","family":"McGinley","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anatomy, Howard University College of Medicine, Washington, DC 20059, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0002-6817-3269","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Oluwafayokemi","family":"Oyolola","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anatomy, Howard University College of Medicine, Washington, DC 20059, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Oyinkansola","family":"Adeyemi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anatomy, Howard University College of Medicine, Washington, DC 20059, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Monique C.","family":"Surles-Zeigler","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anatomy, Howard University College of Medicine, Washington, DC 20059, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shokofeh","family":"Rahimpour","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anatomy, Howard University College of Medicine, Washington, DC 20059, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6636-1461","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Byron D.","family":"Ford","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anatomy, Howard University College of Medicine, Washington, DC 20059, USA"},{"name":"Division of Biomedical Sciences, University of California-Riverside School of Medicine, Riverside, CA 92521, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,19]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Theus, M.H.
