Journal ArticleDOI

Regulation of astrocyte activation by glycolipids drives chronic CNS inflammation.

TL;DR: It is reported that lactosylceramide synthesized by β-1,4-galactosyltransferase 6 (B4GALT6) is upregulated in the central nervous system of mice during chronic experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), a model of multiple sclerosis (MS).
Journal ArticleDOI

A Highly Efficient Human Pluripotent Stem Cell Microglia Model Displays a Neuronal-Co-culture-Specific Expression Profile and Inflammatory Response

TL;DR: Co-culture microglia downregulate pathogen-response pathways, upregulate homeostatic function pathways, and promote a more anti-inflammatory and pro-remodeling cytokine response than corresponding monocultures, demonstrating that co-cultures are preferable for modeling authentic microglial physiology.
Journal ArticleDOI

Proton magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging for metabolic characterization of demyelinating plaques.

TL;DR: It is proposed that abnormal signals from choline can indicate recent regional demyelination, while persistent abnormal signalsfrom N‐acetylaspartate can provide an index of irreversible damage in the nervous system.
Journal ArticleDOI

Glial cell influence on the human blood-brain barrier.

TL;DR: Glial cells that become activated in response to signals derived from the immune system or generated within the CNS, produce an array of inflammatory molecules that increase permeability and promote lymphocyte trafficking and persistence, emphasizing the bidirectional nature of neural‐immune interactions.
