It is well established that microglial form and function are inextricably linked. In recent years, the traditional view that microglial form ranges between “ramified resting” and “activated …
Activation of the peripheral immune system elicits a coordinated response from the central nervous system. Key to this immune to brain communication is that glia, microglia, and …

Psychosocial stress is associated with altered immune function and development of psychological disorders including anxiety and depression. Here we show that repeated …
While there clearly is an intimate relationship between astrocytes and microglia, few studies have examined these potentially dynamic interactions. In this study, cytokine‐mediated …

Background Emerging evidence indicates that, similarly to what happens for peripheral macrophages, microglia can express different phenotypes depending on …
Background Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is associated with a higher incidence of depression. The majority of individuals who suffer a TBI are juveniles and young adults, and thus, the risk …
Repeated social defeat (RSD) is a murine stressor that recapitulates key physiological, immunological, and behavioral alterations observed in humans exposed to chronic …
Repeated social defeat (RSD) activates neuroendocrine pathways that have a significant influence on immunity and behavior. Previous studies from our lab indicate that RSD …
