P 89: Reduction of Neuroinflammation in Epilepsy by Using Stem Cells Derived Astrocytes

Epilepsy is neurological disorders that afflict many people around the world with a higher prevalence rate in children and in low income countries. Temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) is result from hippocampal sclerosis is a neurological disorder with difficult treatment. Stem cells can transform into any type of cells such as glial cells, consequently stem cells can use for medical treatment. Stem c...

Astrocyte-derived GDNF is a potent inhibitor of microglial activation.

Neuroinflammation is recognized as a major factor in Parkinson's disease (PD) pathogenesis and increasing evidence propose that microglia is the main source of inflammation contributing to the dopaminergic degeneration observed in PD. Several studies suggest that astrocytes could act as physiological regulators preventing excessive microglia responses. However, little is known regarding how ast...

Abstract Astrocytes Modulate Microglial Phenotype and Dendritic Cell-like Properties Astrocytes Modulate Microglial Phenotype and Dendritic Cell-like Properties Astrocytes Modulate Microglial Phenotype and Dendritic Cell-like Properties

ASTROCYTES MODULATE MICROGLIAL PHENOTYPE AND DENDRITIC CELL-LIKE PROPERTIES by Nischal K. Padala Microglia are the resident immune cells of the CNS. In the healthy CNS, they express negligible levels of MHC II molecules as well as co-stimulatory molecules CD40, CD80 and CD86 necessary for antigen presentation to and activation of T cells. Co-stimulatory molecule expression can be induced in iso...

AGE proteins as a causative factor in Alzheimer's Disease

The reaction between reducing sugars and protein free amines, known as the Maillar reaction results in the formation of advanced glycation endproducts (AGEs). AGE modification changes the structure of proteins to amyloid cross-beta structure. These protein structures can activate receptors known as RAGE on glial cells (microglia and astrocytes), and induce the expression of inducible nitric oxi...
