Study results corroborate our recently published data demonstrating the critical role of microglial-driven inflammation in promoting accumulation and spread of toxic phosphorylated alpha-synuclein ...

Inflammation is triggered by the immune system and is part of the body's natural response to injuries or disease. However, abnormal inflammation has recently been established as a hallmark for ...

A research group has uncovered a potential mechanism linking maternal inflammation to delayed neurodevelopment in infants. The research suggests the role of CD11c-positive microglia -- immune cells in ...

A Dartmouth study published in Nature Communications reveals that immune cells in the brain use a surprising two-step process ...

In recent years, there's been a growing awareness of neuroinflammation, an immune response in the brain. Research suggests that chronic inflammatory activation could be a central driver behind many ...

A research group led by Nagoya University Graduate School of Medicine in Japan has uncovered a potential mechanism linking maternal inflammation to delayed neurodevelopment in infants. The research ...
