Dendritic cells (DCs) are a heterogeneous population of migratory cells specialized for the uptake, processing, and presentation of antigen to T cells. They consist of a variety of mature subpopulations, classically divided into "lymphoid" and "myeloid" subsets. Although there likely exists significant plasticity and redundancy between DC subpopulations, unique differences have been noted in th...

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease, which is characterized by demyelination and neuroinflammation. Extracellular Matrix (ECM) have important role in the central nervous system (CNS). Alterations are happening to the ECM after the CNS disorder like MS, Alzheimer and other neural injury. Tenasin-C (TnC) is a glycoprotein that is highly expressed in inflammatory conditions of the CNS...

Primary dural lymphoma (PDL) is a subtype of primary central nervous system (CNS) (PCNSL) with only an extra-axial location. It accounts for less than 1% all CNS lymphomas. PDL sporadic tumor, and in the preoperative period, because imaging characteristics, it usually mimicking meningioma. Usually, low-grade B-cell relatively good response to surgical resection or without radiotherapy. Here we ...

Both the safety and effectiveness of intrathecal tigecycline (TGC) for treatment infections central nervous system (CNS) are discussed using clinical findings from a study recent patient who came to our attention, along with literature review. Although penetration into CNS is low (approximately 11%), intraventricular TGC could help treat patients severe post- neurosurgical infections. The use m...
