Homocysteine Induces Glial Reactivity in Adult Rat Astrocyte Cultures

TL;DR: Findings provide important evidences that Hcy modulates critical astrocyte parameters from adult rats, which might be associated to the aging process.
Journal ArticleDOI

Leptin stimulates the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines in hypothalamic astrocyte cultures from adult and aged rats.

TL;DR: The data suggests a pro-inflammatory action of leptin on the hypothalamus during aging, which in turn may be related to the triggering of metabolic disorders, as both of these conditions are associated with neuroinflammation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Age-Dependent Neurochemical Remodeling of Hypothalamic Astrocytes

TL;DR: The findings indicate that as age increases, hypothalamic astrocytes remodel and exhibit changes in their neurochemical properties, which may play a role in the onset and/or progression of metabolic disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI

Zika virus exposure affects neuron-glia communication in the hippocampal slices of adult rats.

TL;DR: The results indicate that ZIKV-induced neuroinflammation, involving nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) and nuclear factor κB (NFκB) pathways, affects important aspects of neuron-glia communication and long-term consequences might be associated with neurological and/or neurodegenerative diseases.
