PPARγ in myeloid cells controls CNS autoimmunity
(2012-03-12)
The nuclear receptor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) is a ligand-activated transcription factor that regulates the immunogenicity of myeloid cells such as dendritic cells (DCs), macrophages, and ......
Microglia derived from embryonic stem cells and its application in CNS diseases
(2012-08-01)
Microglia are the resident immune cells of the central nervous system (CNS). They are known to have detrimental as well as beneficial effects. To overcome the limitations of primary microglia, embryonic stem cell derived ......
The role of PPARγ in myeloid cells in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis
(2013-05-06)
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a common chronic inflammatory demyelinating disease of the central nervous system (CNS) affecting more than 1 million people worldwide. It mainly affects young adults and has a great impact on ......
Multiple Sklerose ist eine weitverbreitete chronisch-entzündliche, demyelinisierende Erkrankung des Zentralen Nerven Systems (ZNS), an der weltweit mehr als 1 Millionen Menschen erkrankt sind. Sie betrifft überwiegend junge ......

The implication of microglial sialic acid-binding immunoglobulin-like lectin-E (Siglec-E) in neuroinflammation
(2014-03-07)
Microglia are the resident immune cells of the central nervous system (CNS). They display a whole set of recognition receptors on their cell surface to sense intact or lesioned cells in the CNS. A subfamily of these receptors ...
The role of endocannabinoid system in neuron-glial communication in the ageing and diseased brain
(2017-12-13)
The endocannabinoid system has been implicated in the regulation of glial activity and progression of brain ageing. Mice constitutively or specifically lacking the cannabinoid receptor 1 (CB1) on neurons or GABAergic neurons ...
Molecular Mechanisms in the Unconventional Secretion of Insulin-Degrading Enzyme
(2018-04-12)
Extracellular deposition of amyloid-ß (Aß) plaques in the brain, a hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), results from an imbalance between production and clearance of the peptide. Insulin-degrading enzyme (IDE) is one of ...
