The Structure of the Spinal Cord Ependymal Region in Adult Humans Is a Distinctive Trait among Mammals

open access: yesCells, 2021
In species that regenerate the injured spinal cord, the ependymal region is a source of new cells and a prominent coordinator of regeneration. In mammals, cells at the ependymal region proliferate in normal conditions and react after injury, but in ...

Regulatory T cells decrease C3-positive reactive astrocytes in Alzheimer-like pathology

open access: yesJournal of Neuroinflammation, 2023
Background Increasing evidence supports a key role for peripheral immune processes in the pathophysiology of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), highlighting an intricate interplay between brain resident glial cells and both innate and adaptive peripheral immune ...

PPARs in Neuroinflammation [PDF]

open access: yesPPAR Research, 2008
Welcome to this special issue of PPAR Research dedicated to “PPARs in Neuroinflammation.” The central nervous system (CNS) was once thought to be an immune-privileged site void of significant inflammation. However, it is now clear that activated peripheral immune cells are capable or entering and functioning within the CNS. In addition, resident immune

APOE in the bullseye of neurodegenerative diseases: impact of the APOE genotype in Alzheimer’s disease pathology and brain diseases

open access: yesMolecular Neurodegeneration, 2022
ApoE is the major lipid and cholesterol carrier in the CNS. There are three major human polymorphisms, apoE2, apoE3, and apoE4, and the genetic expression of APOE4 is one of the most influential risk factors for the development of late-onset Alzheimer's ...

Neuroinflammation in Friedreich’s Ataxia

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022
Friedreich’s ataxia (FRDA) is a rare genetic disorder caused by mutations in the gene frataxin, encoding for a mitochondrial protein involved in iron handling and in the biogenesis of iron−sulphur clusters, and leading to progressive nervous system damage.

Imidazopyridazine Acetylcholinesterase Inhibitors Display Potent Anti-Proliferative Effects in the Human Neuroblastoma Cell-Line, IMR-32

open access: yesMolecules, 2021
Imidazo[1,2-b]pyridazine compounds are a new class of promising lead molecules to which we have incorporated polar nitro and amino moieties to increase the scope of their biological activity.

Estrogens, Neuroinflammation, and Neurodegeneration [PDF]

open access: yesEndocrine Reviews, 2016
Inflammatory activation of microglia is a hallmark of several disorders of the central nervous system. In addition to protecting the brain against inflammatory insults, microglia are neuroprotective and play a significant role in maintaining neuronal connectivity, but the prolongation of an inflammatory status may limit the beneficial functions of ...

Neuroinflammation in Alzheimer's disease [PDF]

open access: yesThe Lancet Neurology, 2015
Increasing evidence suggests that Alzheimer's disease pathogenesis is not restricted to the neuronal compartment, but includes strong interactions with immunological mechanisms in the brain. Misfolded and aggregated proteins bind to pattern recognition receptors on microglia and astroglia, and trigger an innate immune response characterised by release ...

Fully automated segmentation of the cervical cord from T1-weighted MRI using PropSeg: Application to multiple sclerosis

open access: yesNeuroImage: Clinical, 2016
Spinal cord (SC) atrophy, i.e. a reduction in the SC cross-sectional area (CSA) over time, can be measured by means of image segmentation using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Early-life stress elicits peripheral and brain immune activation differently in wild type and 5xFAD mice in a sex-specific manner

open access: yesJournal of Neuroinflammation, 2022
Background The risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is modulated by genetic and environmental factors. Early-life stress (ELS) exposure during critical periods of brain development can impact later brain function and health, including increasing ...
