Its increasing incidence has led stroke to be the second leading cause of death worldwide.
Despite significant advances in recanalization strategies, patients are still at risk for …

Adult neurogenesis occurs mainly in the subgranular zone of the hippocampal dentate gyrus
and the subventricular zone of the lateral ventricles. Evidence supports the critical role of …

In the last several decades, the number of people dying from cancer-related deaths has not
reduced significantly despite phenomenal advances in the technologies related to diagnosis …

The pleiotropic cytokine interleukin-6 (IL-6) is emerging as a molecule with both beneficial
and destructive potentials. It can exert opposing actions triggering either neuron survival …

Interleukin-6 is a cytokine not only involved in inflammation and infection responses but also
in the regulation of metabolic, regenerative, and neural processes. In classic signaling …

Within minutes of a traumatic impact, a robust inflammatory response is elicited in the injured
brain. The complexity of this post-traumatic squeal involves a cellular component …

Although microglia have long been considered as brain resident immune cells, increasing
evidence suggests that they also have physiological roles in the development of the normal …

In adult brain, new neurons are generated throughout adulthood in the subventricular zone
and the dentate gyrus; this process is commonly known as adult neurogenesis. The …

Neurogenesis is an important process in the regulation of brain function and behaviour,
highly active in early development and continuing throughout life. Recent studies have …

Upregulation of the immune response may be involved in the pathogenesis of schizophrenia
with changes occurring in both peripheral blood and brain tissue. To date, microarray …
