Macrophages are highly versatile and plastic immune cells that are localized in nearly all organs of the body and contribute to a plethora of physiological and pathological processes in situ.Beside their roles as major players in the“first line of defense”under inflammatory conditions,macrophages are known to participate in tissue homeostasis maintenance.

The neural retina is a part of the central nervous system. As it lacks regenerative capacity, in an event of injury or disease, neuronal loss leads to visual impairment and often to blindness. Moreover, Müller glia (MG), the predominant glia in the retina

Mammalian central nervous system (CNS) neurons lose axon regenerative ability as they mature. This failure to regenerate shows a clear contrast to a remarkable potential of axon growth during embryonic development and after an injury in the peripheral ner

MicroRNA-491-5p (miR-491-5p) plays an important role in regulating cell proliferation and migration; however, the effect of miR-491-5p on neovascularization after traumatic brain injury remains poorly understood. In this study, a controlled cortical injur

Lipid peroxidation-derived aldehydes, such as acrolein, the most reactive aldehyde, have emerged as key culprits in sustaining post-spinal cord injury (SCI) secondary pathologies leading to functional loss. Strong evidence suggests that mitochondrial alde
