Journal ArticleDOI

Neuroglial activation repertoire in the injured brain: graded response, molecular mechanisms and cues to physiological function.

TL;DR: Recent work in mice that are genetically deficient for different cytokines (MCSF, IL1, IL6, TNFalpha, TGFbeta1) has begun to shed light on the molecular signals that regulate this cellular response.
Journal ArticleDOI

Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis repressed by microglial paralysis.

TL;DR: The results validate CD11b-HSVTK mice as a tool to study the impact of microglial activation on CNS diseases in vivo and conclude that microglia paralysis inhibits the development and maintenance of inflammatory CNS lesions.
Journal ArticleDOI

c-Jun Reprograms Schwann Cells of Injured Nerves to Generate a Repair Cell Essential for Regeneration

TL;DR: It is concluded that a single glial transcription factor is essential for restoration of damaged nerves, acting to control the transdifferentiation of myelin and Remak Schwann cells to dedicated repair cells in damaged tissue.
Journal ArticleDOI

The AP-1 Transcription Factor c-Jun Is Required for Efficient Axonal Regeneration

TL;DR: C-Jun is identified as an important regulator of axonal regeneration in the injured central nervous system and Expression of CD44, galanin, and alpha7beta1 integrin was greatly impaired, suggesting a mechanism for c-Jun-mediated axonal growth.
Journal ArticleDOI

Immune Surveillance in the Injured Nervous System: T-Lymphocytes Invade the Axotomized Mouse Facial Motor Nucleus and Aggregate around Sites of Neuronal Degeneration

TL;DR: In this paper, the lymphocyte infiltration, a key component of this neuroimmune surveillance, into the axotomized facial motor nucleus and analyzed the changes in proinflammatory cytokines and the blood-brain barrier.
