Researchers at University of Tsukuba have discovered that an immunosuppressive drug affects microglia, the resident immune ...

A study by researchers from Fujita University reveals that hypernatremia enhances NFAT5 and NO production in microglia and minocycline mitigates this response. The image above is a schematic showing ...

Microglial activation is a determining factor that allows amyloid-beta accumulation to drive reactive astrogliosis, amplifying inflammatory responses in the brain. This was the conclusion of a study ...

By analyzing tissue from patients with Parkinson's disease, and animal and cellular models of the disease, a research team ...

Move over, amyloid, reactive astrocytes and activated microglia may be the main drivers of the Alzheimer’s disease pathological cascade. In the November 6 Nature Neuroscience, scientists led by Pedro ...

“These are the first data to link ASC speck assembly, NLRP1 inflammasome activation, and alpha-synuclein aggregation in neurons of Parkinson’s disease patients,” said Stephen C. Glover, ZyVersa’s ...

The idea that infiltrating T cells contribute to a neurodegenerative environment in aging and in Alzheimer’s disease has gotten another boost. In the June 27 Nature Neuroscience, scientists led by ...

Parkinson’s disease has long been defined by the slow, relentless loss of dopamine-producing neurons, with treatments focused ...
