JNI | Abstract | Therapeutic targeting of Kruppel-like factor 4 abrogates microglial activation

jneuroinflammation.com — “Neuroinflammation occurs as a result of microglial activation in response to invading micro-organisms or other inflammatory stimuli within the central nervous system. According to our earlier findings, Kruppel-like factor 4 (Klf4), a zinc finger transcription factor, is involved in microglial activation and subsequent release of proinflammatory cytokines, tumor necrosis factor alpha, macrophage chemoattractant protein-1 and interleukin-6 as well as proinflammatory enzymes, inducible nitric oxideView full resource at jneuroinflammation.com

NIH Blueprint for Neuroscience Research: Home Page

neuroscienceblueprint.nih.gov — “The NIH Blueprint for Neuroscience Research is designed to enhance collaboration among the NIH Office of the Director and 15 NIH institutes and centers (ICs) that support research on the nervous system. By pooling resources and expertise and less than one percent of the NIH investment in neuroscience research, the Blueprint confronts challenges that transcend any single institute or center and serves the entire neuroscience community. As a result, best practices developed at a single IC are implView full resource at neuroscienceblueprint.nih.gov

Frontiers | Regulation by Glycogen Synthase Kinase-3 of Inflammation and T Cells in CNS Diseases | Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience

frontiersin.org — “Elevated markers of neuroinflammation have been found to be associated with many psychiatric and neurodegenerative diseases, such as mood disorders, Alzheimer's disease, and multiple sclerosis. Since neuroinflammation is thought to contribute to the pathophysiology of these diseases and to impair responses to therapeutic interventions and recovery, it is important to identify mechanisms that regulate neuroinflammation and potential targets for controlling neuroinflammation.
