  • Neuron-Glia Interaction in Neuroinflammation

    Series Book 7 - Advances in Neurobiology
    Accumulation on glia is an active pathological element in many neurological disorders. Gliosis produces neuroinflammation through both neurotrophic and inflammatory means, but the exact mechanism through which this happens remain unclear. It is suspected that damage to neurons activates the growth of glial cells. The proposed book focuses on the interaction between neurons and glia to help ... Read more
