A reaction-diffusion model for relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis with a treatment term [PDF]
We present a mathematical study for the development of multiple sclerosis based on a reaction-diffusion system. The model describes interactions among different populations of human cells, motion of immune cells stimulated by cytokines, consumption of myelin sheath due to anomalously activated lymphocytes and its restoration by oligodendrocytes ...

Drying processes in the Brazilian palm swamps or Veredas, impact the gall community in adjacent vegetation by reducing the abundance of more sensitive galls, while more resilient galls acclimate to increased dryness by developing thicker protective tissues. Abstract Galls are new plant organs formed in response to the stimuli of gall‐inducing organisms,

Background – Itch is a common symptom in skin disorders. While the neural pathways of itch transmission from the skin to the brain are well‐understood in rodents, the same pathways in dogs remain unclear. The knowledge gap hinders the development of effective treatments for canine itch‐related disorders.

Microelectrode recordings from the human cervical vagus nerve during maximal breath‐holds
Abstract Voluntary breath‐holds can be sustained for a long time following training, but ultimately, regardless of duration, the asphyxic break‐point is reached and the apnoea terminated. The physiological changes occurring during the apnoea include a marked increase in sympathetically‐mediated vasoconstriction in non‐essential organs, such as skeletal

Abstract figure legend The glia‐immune network involves the communication(s) of glia via immune signalling pathways. In neuro‐homeostasis these pathways have been shown to modulate key processes such as synaptic pruning and myelination. The dynamics of these processes is critical to CNS function.

Ultrastructure of astrocytes using volume electron microscopy: A scoping review
Abstract figure legend A complete overview on astrocyte ultrastructure with volume electron microscopy. The morphology of astrocytes under physiological and pathological conditions plays a role in brain homeostasis, synaptic activity and structural support, but their morphological complexity and heterogeneity are still poorly quantified.

Natural History and Diagnostic Findings in an Adult Man Diagnosed With Attenuated Krabbe Disease
ABSTRACT Krabbe disease (KD), or globoid cell leukodystrophy, is a rare autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder caused by a deficiency in galactocerebrosidase (GALC), leading to psychosine (galactosylsphingosine) accumulation and myelin damage.
