Menopause leads to elevated expression of macrophage-associated genes in the aging frontal cortex: rat and human studies identify strikingly similar changes. [PDF]
BACKGROUND The intricate interactions between the immune, endocrine and central nervous systems shape the innate immune response of the brain. We have previously shown that estradiol suppresses expression of immune genes in the frontal cortex of ...

CX3CR1 Tyrosine Sulfation Enhances Fractalkine-induced Cell Adhesion [PDF]
Fractalkine is a unique CX(3)C chemokine/mucin hybrid molecule that functions like selectins in inducing the capture of receptor-expressing cells. Because of the importance of tyrosine sulfation for ligand binding of the selectin ligand PSGL1, we tested the role of tyrosine sulfation for CX(3)CR1 function in cell adhesion.

Modulation of adult-born neurons in the inflamed hippocampus. [PDF]
Throughout life new neurons are continuously added to the hippocampal circuitry involved with spatial learning and memory. These new cells originate from neural precursors in the subgranular zone of the dentate gyrus, migrate into the granule cell layer,

Modulating neurotoxicity through CX3CL1/CX3CR1 signaling
Since the initial cloning of fractalkine/CX3CL1, it was proposed that the only known member of the CX3C or δ subfamily of chemotactic cytokines could play some significant role in the nervous system, due to its high expression on neurons. The pivotal description of the localization of the unique CX3CL1 receptor, CX3CR1, on microglial cells, firmed up ...

Microglia shape presynaptic properties at developing glutamatergic synapses [PDF]
Deficient neuron-microglia signaling during brain development is associated with abnormal synaptic maturation. However, the precise impact of deficient microglia function on synaptic maturation and the mechanisms involved remain poorly defined.

Divergent Effects of Metformin on an Inflammatory Model of Parkinson’s Disease [PDF]
The oral antidiabetic drug metformin is known to exhibit anti-inflammatory properties through activation of AMP kinase, thus protecting various brain tissues as cortical neurons, for example. However, the effect of metformin on the substantia nigra (SN),
