  • Neuro-inflammation in Neuronal Death and Repair

    by Stuart Lipton, M. Tiziana Corasaniti, Giacinto Bagetta ...
    Series Book 82 - International Review of Neurobiology
    Neuroinflammation has been implicated recently in the pathogenesis of many neurodegenerative diseases. The cross-talk between neurons and non-neuronal cells seems to be a critical step in the progression of neurodegeneration and molecules that have a beneficial role may turn into harmful players. Thus, matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), which are involved in axonal growth and regeneration as well ... Read more
