❗️The full 7th episode is on our channel! The link in bio. 💪🏻 In this episode, we will talk about immune cells of the brain. Yep, brains consist not only of neurons! And these cells are very critical in the development of the brain, its support in health and disease. 🔥Italian neuroscientist Dr. Paolo d’Errico investigates neurodegeneration. His approach is very original. 👀 In this episode, Paolo will share when defenders of the brain change their role, what Alzheimer’s disease is, and why we should be critical about some data on neurodegeneration. 👌🏻You don’t need to be a biologist or a brain researcher to understand this video. We will explain everything to you. 🙏🏻 Enjoy, subcribe, share and please don’t forget to like. And also Paolo is a painter @paoloderrico_paint 😉 . . . #science #microglia #neuron #brain #neuroscience #neurosciencestudent #youtube #podcast #neuro #italian #neurodegeneration #phd #alzheimersassociation #alzheimersawarenessmonth #alzheimerscare #aging #research #brainresearch #scientists #researchers #scientist #sciencefacts #pop #мозг #наука #ученый #ученые #нейродегенерация #микроглия #нейроны

Microglial cell! The security guard of your brain. Microglial cells make up around 15% of the cells in your brain. They function similarly to Macrophages or dendritic cells and hang out passively in your brain until they notice something wrong. They even check in on your brain cells to see if they are malfunctioning. If you would like more information about Microglia, please see some of my previous posts on these cells. #microglialcells #microbiology #microglial #microglia #immunesystem #immunology #cells #cell #cellbiology #braincell #braincells
🧠 Descifrando los Guardianes del Sistema Nervioso: Neuroglia 🛡️ La neuroglia, o simplemente "glia", son las células de soporte esenciales que custodian nuestras neuronas. ¿Sabías que conforman hasta el 50% del volumen de nuestro cerebro y médula espinal? ¡Son las heroínas anónimas de nuestro sistema nervioso! 🌟 🔹 Astrocitos: Como estrellas del apoyo neuronal, ¡los astrocitos son todo terreno! Brindan soporte estructural y mantienen el ambiente perfecto para que las neuronas hagan su magia. 💫 🔸 Oligodendrocitos: Son los electricistas del sistema nervioso central, envolviendo las neuronas en una capa aislante llamada mielina que acelera el envío de señales eléctricas. ⚡ 🔹 Microglia: Estos vigilantes están siempre en alerta. Al primer signo de daño o infección, ¡actúan para proteger y reparar! 🛡️🔍 🔸 Células Ependimarias: Estas células son como el interior de lujosos salones, revistiendo los espacios donde circula el líquido cefalorraquídeo, crucial para proteger nuestro cerebro y médula espinal. 💧 📚 Fuente: Neuroanatomía Clínica, 7ª edición, Snell. #neuroglia #neurociencia #cerebro #astrocitos #oligodendrocitos #microglia #celulasependimarias #neuronas #anatomía #saludmental #neuroanatomia #biología #educación #aprendeconnosotros

WHO AM I? I am Serotonin!! ——> SWIPE TO BOOST YOUR SEROTONIN While low serotonin has been associated with anxiety and depression, it is not the whole picture and definitely not the root cause. Did you know a deficit in serotonin was hypothesised to cause depression in the 1960s? I wanted to highlight Serotonin as Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs) are now one of the most commonly prescribed drugs in Australian yet, mental health is steadily declining - especially in younger generations. So if not low levels of Serotonin, then what? ✨Neuroinflammation✨ The direct causes of neuroinflammation are neurotoxins, head trauma, autoimmunity and aging. The indirect drivers of neuroinflammation are all the drivers of systemic inflammation like environment, diet, lifestyle, alcohol consumption, smoking habits, ACEs and toxin exposure causing increased inflammatory markers throughout the body. As a degree qualified naturopathic, I believe it’s important not to treat by the condition name but address the cause of altered pathophysiology of an individual. The manifestation of dis-ease is often not the same for everyone, or as simple as “low levels of X causing Y”. I can’t wait to share more on this topic. #neuroinflammation #serotonin #depression #anxiety #OCD #substanceabuse #mitochondrialdysfunction #parainflammation #microglia

Neurons are not the only cells in the brain! There are many others like microglia, which act as immune defenders. Park et al. (2023) looked into how these cells affect the development of brain tissue by examining the growth of organoids made up of both neurons and microglia. Read more to see what they found!

The 2023 Young Investigator Paper of the Year in Honour of Mark Smith goes to Deniz Karabag for the article "Characterizing microglial senescence: Tau as a key player". Congratulations! 👏 This original study demonstrates that exposure of cultured microglia to tau enhances senescence - irreversible arrest of cell proliferation linked to aging - as measured phenotypically and neurochemically. In essence, this shifts the spotlight from brain neurons to microglia as key partners in the induction and worsening of Alzheimer’s disease characteristics. The topic is critical for understanding mechanisms of age-dependent microglial alterations. The JNC Editors found this to be an excellent study and the results present with high fundamental and translational value.

Primed microglia may contribute to the neuropathological features observed in these disorders, such as altered synaptic connectivity, abnormal neural circuitry, and neuroinflammation. This dysregulated microglial activity during critical periods of brain development can disrupt normal neural processes, leading to long-term behavioral and cognitive impairments. #Microglia #DevelopmentalDisorders #Neuroimmunology #MelilloMethodAtlanta

Trauma führt zu Neuroinflammation. Das neurolimbische System ist ein komplexes Netzwerk im Gehirn, das Emotionen, Motivation und Belohnungsverarbeitung steuert. Schlüsselregionen sind die Amygdala, der Hippocampus und der Nucleus accumbens. Die Amygdala spielt eine zentrale Rolle bei der Verarbeitung von Emotionen wie Angst und Vergnügen. Der Hippocampus ist wichtig für Gedächtnis und räumliche Navigation. Der Nucleus accumbens beeinflusst das Belohnungssystem, Motivation und Lernen. Gemeinsam regulieren sie emotionale Reaktionen, Lernen und Entscheidungsfindung. Dysfunktion im neurolimbischen System wird mit psychiatrischen Störungen und Sucht in Verbindung gebracht. Mikroglia sind die weißen Blutzellen des Gehirns, die es vor Bedrohungen schützen und neuronale Netzwerke formen, u.a. durch synaptische Beschneidung, Neuroplastizität und Neuroinflammation. Mikrogliale Aktivierung und das ‚Mikrogliale Aktivierungssyndrom‘ stehen im Fokus meiner Forschung. Trauma kann Gliazellen aktivieren, was zu Neuroinflammation, oxidativem/nitrosativem Stress, Regulationsstörungen von Neurotransmittern und neuroendokrinen Dysfunktionen führen kann. Forschung zeigt, dass Trauma und Belastung die Mikroglia im neurolimbischen System aktivieren, was zu übermäßiger Neuroinflammation führt. Das ist eine Hauptursache für PTSD-Symptome. Die Pharmaindustrie entwickelt Medikamente, die die neuroinflammatorische Reaktion im Gehirn reduzieren, um PTSD zu behandeln. Die Traumarekonstruktion erfordert die Arbeit an gestörter Physiologie und Verhalten. Eine effektive Therapie ist schwierig, wenn das Gehirn überaktiv ist. #trauma #ptbs #ptsd #microglia #neuroinflammation #neuronaleheilung #gehirn #neurologie #depression #angst #dasinnerekind #stress #schlaflos #schlafstörungen #adhs #limbischessystem #emtional #limbischessystem #vagus #vagusnervehealing #nervensystem

Real #FluorescenceFriday this time, with a fresh photo from the microscopy showing one of my favorite events in the brain: synaptic pruning! Microglia (🟣Iba1) strengthening circuits and removing redundant synapses from neurons (🔵map2): underdo it during development, and you can have autism; overdo it, and you can develop schizophrenia. It can occur in the adult brain and, when associated with myelin degradation, also mediated by microglia, may underlie some of the neurological deficits observed in patients with COVID-19. @zeiss_micro #neuroscience #neurons #nörobilim #sinirbilim #brain #synapses #microglia #glialcells

Microglia dysfunction has been implicated in the pathogenesis of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), as these immune cells play a crucial role in neuroinflammation and synaptic pruning within the developing brain. Understanding the interplay between microglia and ASD holds potential for advancing therapeutic strategies. A new #bioinfonotes about “Microglia Disfunction and Autism Spectrum Disorder” has been published! #microglia #autismspectrum #neuroinflammation #synapticpruning #ASDresearch #immunology #neurodevelopment #brainhealth #neuroscience #immuneresponse #autismawareness #neurologicaldisorders #microglialdysfunction #ASDconnections #AcademicChatter #AcademicTwitter #staywithscience
