ABSTRACT Spinal cord injury (SCI) results in significant disruption of nerve fibers responsible for transmitting signals between the brain and body, often leading to partial or complete motor, sensory, and autonomic dysfunction below the injury site. Astrocytes are an important component in scar formation, crucial for suppression of injury propagation,

Prevention and treatment of murine experimental allergic encephalomyelitis with T cell receptor Vβ-specific antibodies [PDF]
Experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE) is a model system for T cell-mediated autoimmune disease. Symptoms of EAE are similar to those of multiple sclerosis (MS) in humans.

A case report: Diagnosis and treatment of idiopathic hypertrophic pachymeningitis
We reported a case of idiopathic hypertrophic dura meningitis diagnosed in our hospital. The patient repeatedly suffered from headaches, followed by blurred vision in the right eye. During this period, multiple sclerosis was considered for diagnosis, and it improved after hormone treatment.

Research progress on the role of inflammatory mediators in the pathogenesis of epilepsy
In the central nervous system, activated immune cells lead to the overproduction of inflammatory mediators through the corresponding signal pathway. Under the stimulation of inflammatory factors, neuroinflammation ultimately occurs. Overexpression of inflammatory mediators and activated immunocytes plays an important role in the emergence and ...

Development of glial restricted human neural stem cells for oligodendrocyte differentiation in vitro and in vivo. [PDF]
In this study, we have developed highly expandable neural stem cells (NSCs) from HESCs and iPSCs that artificially express the oligodendrocyte (OL) specific transcription factor gene Zfp488. This is enough to restrict them to an exclusive oligodendrocyte

Research progress of neurovascular units involved in ischemic stroke
The brain receives less blood when an ischemic stroke develops, which damages neurons and leads to an increased release of Pro‐inflammatory mediators that activate neurovascular unit (NVU). When the tight junctions are broken and the basement membrane is disrupted by matrix metalloproteinases produced by active endothelial and pericellular cells ...
