Nociceptor Sensory Neuron-Immune Interactions in Pain and Inflammation.

TL;DR: The dialog between nociceptor neurons and the immune system is a fundamental aspect of inflammation, both acute and chronic, and a better understanding of these interactions could produce approaches to treat chronic pain and inflammatory diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Neurodegeneration-Specific Gene-Expression Signature of Acutely Isolated Microglia from an Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Mouse Model

TL;DR: It is found that SOD1(G93A) microglia are not derived from infiltrating monocytes, and that both potentially neuroprotective and toxic factors, including Alzheimer's disease genes, are concurrently upregulated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neurogenic inflammation and the peripheral nervous system in host defense and immunopathology

TL;DR: Understanding the coordinated interaction of peripheral neurons with immune cells may advance therapeutic approaches to increase host defense and suppress immunopathology.
