Immunity: Where do bad emotions come from? It turns out this cell is making a fuss.
Time of Update: 2021-02-14
, the researchers found that small glial cell activity was necessary to induce negative emotional states caused by systemic inflammation.
overall, the study identified small glial cell activity as a mechanism that induces negative emotions through IL-6 and prostetin-mediated mechanisms.

Metabolites: Bile acid may play a magical role in the onset of Parkinson's disease!
Time of Update: 2021-02-14
This change is only visible in patients with Parkinson's disease and does not exist in healthy controlled populations; a key difference suggests that bile acid may be a visible biomarker for early diagnosis of Parkinson's disease and tracking its progression, and studies have found or are expected to help develop new therapies to block intestinal changes associated with Parkinson's disease, potentially slowing or blocking the onset and development of the disease.

Nature paper interpretation! It is revealed that the risk and severity of Parkinson's disease are closely related to ion channel mutations in cell lysosomes
Time of Update: 2021-02-14
study found that the mutation, which is present in about 17 percent of the body, increases the risk of disease and causes a decrease in the function of an ion channel in a cell called lysosome.

Journal of Parkinson's Disease: People with Parkinson's should be vaccinated against COVID19
Time of Update: 2021-02-14
Based on the author's explanation of the scientific literature, the evolving experience of extensive vaccination in the general population, and the opinion of the International Parkinson's Society's Scientific Committee on Movement Disorders (IPMDS-SIC), the vaccination recommendations for COVID19 are as follows: IND patients (at least those with more severe conditions) appear to have a higher risk of serious and life-threatening diseases than the general population.

Cell paper interpretation! Reveal new mechanisms by which the immune system monitors the brain
Time of Update: 2021-02-14
if the cells detect signs of infection, disease or injury, they are prepared to initiate an immune response to the problem, the researchers said.
2015, Kipnis and his colleagues discovered a network of blood vessels that drain fluid and small molecules from the brain into the lymph nodes, where the immune response starts.
