Stationed within the meninges, squads of immune cells lie in wait, ready to unleash an inflammatory assault within the brain if needed. Holding these trigger-happy troops back during peacetime falls ...

Background Choroid plexus (CP) enlargement has been suggested as a reliable marker of neuroinflammation in adult multiple sclerosis (MS). We investigated CP volume in patients with paediatric MS ...

This study convincingly shows that aquaporin-mediated cell migration plays a key role in blood vessel formation during zebrafish development. In particular, the paper implicates hydrostatic pressure ...

In particular, the paper implicates hydrostatic pressure and water flow as mechanisms controlling endothelial cell migration during angiogenic sprouting. This important study significantly advances ...

Immune cells called regulatory T cells have long been known for their role in countering inflammation. In the setting of infection, these so-called Tregs restrain the immune system to ensure it ...

A Chinese study, led by Arnold ASH Chee, AFCOphthHK, found that a tyrosine kinase inhibitor achieved both durable disease control and visual improvement in patients with epidermal growth factor ...

A multi-omics approach was used to identify a new antiviral cascade, Hsf1-sHsp, that exhibits broad antiviral activity against alphaviruses and a flavivirus in cells from three vector mosquito ...

Eating foods high in key nutrients, including iron, folic acid, and vitamin B12, and limiting alcohol may help increase your red blood cell count. Red blood cells are the most common cells in ...

In 2009 a team of biophysicists led by Anthony A. Hyman of the Max Planck Institute of Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics in Dresden, Germany, were studying specklelike structures called P ...

But since VLDLR is not expressed by blood vessel cells in the blood-brain barrier, they reasoned that there must by another way for Semliki Forest virus to enter the central nervous system. They ...
