MICROGLIAL PHAGOCYTOSIS OF NEURONS: DIMINISHING NEURONAL LOSS IN TRAUMATIC, INFECTIOUS, INFLAMMATORY, AND AUTOIMMUNE CNS DISORDERS

Microglial Phagocytosis of Neurons: Diminishing Neuronal Loss in Traumatic, Infectious, Inflammatory, and Autoimmune CNS Disorders

Errors in neuron-microglial interaction are known to lead to microglial phagocytosis of live neurons and excessive neuronal loss, potentially yielding poorer clinical outcomes.Factors that affect neuron-microglial interaction have the potential to influence the error rate.Clinical comorbidities that unfavorably impact neuron-microglial interaction

Morphological and phylogenetic analyses reveal two new species and a new record of Apiospora (Amphisphaeriales, Apiosporaceae) in China

The genus Apiospora includes endophytes, pathogens and saprobes, with a wide host range and geographic distribution.In this paper, six Apiospora strains isolated from ECHINACEA WITH GOLDENSEAL ROOT diseased and healthy tissues of bamboo leaves from Hainan and Shandong provinces in China were classified using a multi-locus phylogeny based on a combi

Superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery bypass for the treatment of complex middle cerebral artery aneurysms

Objectives: Direct microsurgical clipping for complex middle cerebral artery (MCA) aneurysms may require a long ischemic time.Sacrifice of the parent artery with trapping or endovascular coiling also may lead Vegetable to ischemic stroke.We described our institutional experience with the treatment of complex MCA aneurysms using extracranial-intracr
