Researchers report the Del-1 protein reduces the severity of a disease equivalent to MS in mice.
According to a new study, astrocytes abandon their role in protecting and repairing neural damage when primed by the degeneration of cells around them.
A new study reveals neutrophils can help the nervous system clear nerve debris and assist with neuroregeneration.
A new study sheds light on how immune cells may rush through channels to quickly get to injured brain tissue. Researchers say bone marrow in the skull is more likely to help supply neutrophils to the brain following a stroke.
A new, comprehensive database of gene activity in mice, which incorporates ten disease models, could significantly reduce the need for animal testing.
Targeting the miR-199, a microRNA which reduces the migration of neutrophils could potentially reduce inflammation without compromising the immune system.
Patients with severe COVID-19 infections have higher blood levels of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), which produce NETosis, an inflammatory type of neutrophil cell death. Researchers believe the NETs may be relevant to numerous aspects of novel coronavirus as thrombosis and inflammation are hallmarks of the severe infection.
