An Immunomodulating Peptide With Potential to Counteract Endometriosis
ABSTRACT Endometriosis is underpinned by dysfunctional immune responses resulting in failure to clear ectopic endometrial lesions from the peritoneal cavity. The pelvic milieu comprising immature dendritic cells, dysfunctional cytotoxic lymphocytes, and an imbalance in production of interleukin‐12 isoforms including Type I/II interferons (IFNs) is ...

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common cause of dementia, affecting over 35 million people worldwide. A key feature of AD is the loss of synapses—the connections between brain cells—which strongly correlates with cognitive decline. We sought to investigate the role of astrocytes in mouse organotypic cultures challenged with brain homogenate (BH ...
