Wu and colleagues confirmed that cultured-microglia-carrying lipid droplets struggled with phagocytosis, poorly engulfing ...

Long COVID is a complex and often debilitating complication following COVID-19 infection. It affects millions worldwide, presenting with symptoms such as persistent fatigue, cognitive impairment ...

However, when the brain is subjected to hyperosmotic stress—a condition characterized by elevated extracellular sodium levels, the microglial response can become exaggerated, leading to ...

Researchers at University of Tsukuba have discovered a novel mechanism involved in brain development. They found that small fragments called micronuclei produced by neuronal nuclei are released into ...

Researchers in from Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital have presented data from a study that investigated the role of immunoglobulin superfamily member 6 (IGSF6) microglia during ischemic stroke.

Microglia play a crucial role in neuroinflammation after ischemic brain injury. Previous data have shown that leukocyte immunoglobulin-like receptor B4 (LILRB4) was upregulated in mice after middle ...

Recombinant TGF-β1 stimulated Aβ clearance in microglial cell cultures. These results demonstrate that TGF-β1 is an important modifier of amyloid deposition in vivo and indicate that TGF-β1 ...

In the segment, Joe and his Wife, Karen, shared their journey and shed light on the hope that innovative therapies like Foralumab offer for individuals battling moderate Alzheimer's, a condition that ...
