What are Microglia? What is the Blood-Brain Barrier? What is Nervous Tissue? Discussion Comments Bylaughlion56— On Feb 03, 2014 Neurons or neuronal cells are cells in the brain, nerves and spinal chord that communication through electricity and chemical reactions. They are like other cells in...
What are the different types of connective tissue and what are their functions? Describe the different types of muscle tissue. What do microglia do in the body? What are the three effects of aging on skeletal muscles? What are some of the classes of muscle fibers?

It’s the job of these microglia cells to constantly scavenge your central nervous system for plaque, damaged neurons, and harmful agents. When harmful agents do manage to cross the blood-brain barrier, microglial cells spring into action for defense. However, activated microglia are pro-...
How are Brain Cells Different from Other Cells? Discussion Comments ByMammmood— On Oct 01, 2011 @SkyWhisperer - I believe that we will get there too. However, I think we should tread carefully with claims of miracle cures for the time being. ...
This activation of microglia can exacerbate neuroinflammation in AD. c) The circRNAs, circRNA.2837, and circHECTD1, are involved in inducing autophagy, a cellular process crucial for maintaining neuronal health. They function as sponges for miR34 family and miR142/TIPARP axis, respectively, ...
As we grow older, aches and pains can become a chronic part of life. But experts say it doesn't have to—and solutions are on the way.
CD4+ T-cells: Cluster of differentiation 4+ T cells (CD4+) are mature T-helper cells which express the surface protein CD4. They recognize the peptides found on antigen-presenting cells (APCs). Answer and Explanation:1 The functions of CD4+ T cells are- ...
