Resident brain cells recognize pathogens and can initiate and/or regulate inflammation. Indeed, we have shown that stimulated glial cells rapidly produce inflammatory mediators, followed by the late production of anti-inflammatory cytokines such a...

Breast cancer especially triple-negative breast cancer remains deadly, despite detection, monitoring and therapeutic advances. Indeed, aggressive breast cancers metastasize to tissues including the brain, bones, and lungs. Metastasis is favored by...
The rapid onset of potentially lethal neuroinflammation is a defining feature of viral encephalitis. Glial cells are ideally positioned to respond to invading pathogens of the central nervous system (CNS) and produce key inflammatory mediators fol...
Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are a significant public health problem, representing the leading cause of death in U.S. military combat Veterans. Following deployment, combat Veterans are at an increased risk for CVD due to chronic in-theater expos...
