          How the Brain Senses Infection

          A small group of neurons in the airway plays a key role in altering the brain of the presence of flu infection in the body, and a second pathway from the lungs to the brain becomes active later in infection. The findings also shed light on how NSAID anti-inflammatory medications alleviate flu symptoms.

          When Severe Infection Causes Long-Term Mood Disorders

          The activation of a neural circuit comprising of the central nucleus of the amygdala and the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis in the first hours following sepsis infection induced anxiety behaviors in mice two weeks after the infection cleared. The behaviors mimicked the PTSD symptoms patients experience following sepsis infection.
