objective(s): the alteration of glucose transporters is closely related with the pathogenesis of brain edema. we compared neuronal damage/death in the hippocampus between adult and young gerbils following transient cerebral ischemia/reperfusion and changes of glucose transporter-1(glut-1)-immunoreactive microvessels in their ischemic hippocampal ca1 region. materials and methods: transient cere...

The gut microbiota plays an important role in inflammation, neuroinflammation and the function of neuronal cells [...]

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the central nervous system characterized by widespread inflammation, focal demyelination and a variable degree of axonal and neuronal loss. Ionic conductances regulate T cell activation as well as neuronal function and thus have been found to play a crucial role in MS pathogenesis. Since present therapeutical approaches are only parti...
