Radial glia at the neurovascular interface during cortical development [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience
Radial glia are a specialized population of neural progenitor cells that persist throughout embryogenesis and into adulthood. Throughout this period, radial glia reside in a highly dynamic microenvironment that influences various biological decisions ...

Meningeal lymphatic drainage promotes T cell responses against Toxoplasma gondii but is dispensable for parasite control in the brain

open access: yeseLife, 2022
The discovery of meningeal lymphatic vessels that drain the CNS has prompted new insights into how immune responses develop in the brain. In this study, we examined how T cell responses against CNS-derived antigen develop in the context of infection.

Early Age- and Sex-Dependent Regulation of Astrocyte-Mediated Glutamatergic Synapse Elimination in the Rat Prefrontal Cortex: Establishing an Organotypic Brain Slice Culture Investigating Tool

open access: yesCells, 2023
Clinical and pre-clinical studies of neuropsychiatric (NP) disorders show altered astrocyte properties and synaptic networks. These are refined during early postnatal developmental (PND) stages.

An open-source tool for automated analysis of breathing behaviors in common marmosets and rodents

open access: yeseLife, 2022
The respiratory system maintains homeostatic levels of oxygen (O2) and carbon dioxide (CO2) in the body through rapid and efficient regulation of breathing frequency and depth (tidal volume).

Evidence for oligodendrocyte progenitor cell heterogeneity in the adult mouse brain

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPCs) account for approximately 5% of the adult brain and have been historically studied for their role in myelination.

An Inflammation-Centric View of Neurological Disease: Beyond the Neuron [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Inflammation is a complex biological response fundamental to how the body deals with injury and infection to eliminate the initial cause of cell injury and effect repair.

Astrocyte plasticity in mice ensures continued endfoot coverage of cerebral blood vessels following injury and declines with age

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Disruption of the blood brain barrier can occur in several diseases. Here the authors show that targeted ablation of astrocytes results in a plasticity mechanism in nearby cells to maintain cerebrovascular coverage, but that this mechanism is impaired in

Meningeal lymphatic dysfunction exacerbates traumatic brain injury pathogenesis

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a serious and poorly understood medical condition. Here, the authors show that TBI induces long-lasting deficits in brain lymphatic drainage.

Stress-induced despair behavior develops independently of the Ahr-RORγt axis in CD4 + cells

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Current treatments for major depressive disorder are limited to neuropharmacological approaches and are ineffective for large numbers of patients. Recently, alternative means have been explored to understand the etiology of depression.

A Comparative Biology of Microglia Across Species

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Microglia are unique brain-resident, myeloid cells. They have received growing interest for their implication in an increasing number of neurodevelopmental, acute injury, and neurodegenerative disorders of the central nervous system (CNS).
