Structural and Functional Features of Developing Brain Capillaries, and Their Alteration in Schizophrenia.

abstract：:Neuroinflammation, characterized by chronic activation of the myeloid-derived microglia, is a hallmark of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Systemic inflammation, typically resulting from infection, has been linked to the progression of AD due to exacerbation of the chronic microglial reaction. However, the mechanism and the ...
