Protecting neurons and repairing damaged brain tissue are central goals in treating neurodegenerative diseases. In a rat model of Parkinson’s disease, a fatty acid-derived compound called 10-NO₂-OA reduced dopamine-neuron damage and improved motor function by...

The nervous system’s response to injury and disease depends on a balance between inflammation, immune regulation, and repair. Recent studies highlight different ways researchers are trying to improve that balance. In stroke, blocking the inflammatory protein eCIRP...

The brain’s response to disease and injury depends on a complex interaction between inflammation, immune activity, and the health of neuronal connections. In multiple sclerosis, researchers identified the FLAP/LTB4 pathway in microglia as a potential target for...

Across several neurological conditions, important damage can begin before symptoms fully appear. In multiple sclerosis, PAD2-driven changes to myelin basic protein may weaken myelin and make it more visible to the immune system, helping explain early myelin...

Neurodegenerative and neuroinflammatory diseases rarely follow a simple path. They often involve changes in brain wiring, immune activity, cellular stress, and protective responses that may look different depending on the condition. In frontotemporal dementia, one...
