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...

multiple sclerosis (ms) is a progressive and autoimmune neurodegenerative disease of the central nervous system (cns). this disease is recognized through symptoms like inflammation, demyelination and the destruction of neurological actions. experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (eae) is a widely accepted animal model for ms. eae is created in animals by injecting the tissue of myelin basic pr...

One of the most common postoperative complications is Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD), and it’s usually a geriatric’s disease. Although many studies have done, the exact molecular mechanisms of POCD is still largely unknown; nevertheless, neuroinflammation has been increasingly denoted as one of the core mechanisms for the pathogenesis of POCD. As a hypothesize, surgery-i...

In the last decade the role of environmental factors as modulators of disease activity and progression has received increasing attention. In contrast to classical environmental modulators such as exposure to sun-light or fine dust pollution, nutrition is an ideal tool for a personalized human intervention. Various studies demonstrate a key role of dietary factors in autoimmune diseases includin...

background there are few reports from iran about the epidemiology and clinical features of inflammatory bowel disease (ibd). this study aims to determine the epide­miologic profile and clinical features of ibd in northwest iran referral centers. methods in a cross-sectional setting, we evaluated 200 patients with definitive diagno­ses of ibd who referred to tabriz educational hospitals during t...

Background: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is an inflammatory disorder and has been proposed to have imbalance between pro-inflammatory anti-inflammatory factors. Methods: This study was conducted on 41 participants {18 COPD patients (smokers, S (n = 9); reformed smokers, RS 9)) 23 controls (non-smokers, CNS 14); CS 9))}. Flow cytometry used identify circulatory immune cells corre...

CD8+ lymphocytes are adaptive immunity cells with the particular function to directly kill target cell following antigen recognition in context of MHC class I. In addition, T may release pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interferon-γ (IFN-γ), a plethora other cytokines chemoattractants modulating immune inflammatory responses. A role for has been suggested ...

Multiple sclerosis is the most frequent chronic inflammatory disease of the CNS. The entry and survival of pathogenic T cells in the CNS are crucial for the initiation and persistence of autoimmune neuroinflammation. In this respect, contradictory evidence exists on the role of the most potent type of antigen-presenting cells, dendritic cells. Applying intravital two-photon microscopy, we demon...

Invasion of the central nervous system (CNS) by African trypanosomes represents a critical step in the development of human African trypanosomiasis. In both clinical cases and experimental mouse infections it has been demonstrated that predisposition to CNS invasion is associated with a type 1 systemic inflammatory response. Using the Trypanosoma brucei brucei GVR35 experimental infection model...
