However the activation of microglia, when chronic, is considered neurotoxic and can lead to neuronal dysfunction and death (McGeer et al., 1988).For long it has been questioned whether microglial activation in PD is a cause or consequence of the PD pathology, and particularly of the loss of...

While the brainstem is important in maintaining body function, the cerebrum allows body motion and most importantly, is responsible for all the things that make humans special, like thinking and emotion. There are four lobes in each hemisphere: frontal, parietal, temporal, and occipital. ...
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder that is the most common cause of dementia and currently has few clinically efficacious disease modifying therapies [1]. In order to develop disease modifying therapies, it is imperative to better understand the mechanisms of disease initiation...
Evidence has emerged from experimental models of glial communication that microglia and astrocytes influence and coordinate each other and their effects on the brain environment. However, due to the difference in glial cells between humans and rodents, it is essential to confirm the relevance of ...
