Diet-induced glial insulin resistance impairs the clearance of neuronal debris

The risk of neurodegenerative illnesses is greatly increased by obesity. However, the exact processes behind this association are yet unknown. Inflammation, poor nervous system recovery, and neuronal death can arise from delayed clearance of neuronal debris, which makes defects in glial phagocytic function a crucial aspect of neurodegenerative diseases. Growing data suggests that weight, eating […]

Dietary fructose-induced gut dysbiosis promotes mouse hippocampal neuroinflammation: a benefit of short-chain fatty acids

Li et al. had previously demonstrated that a high-fructose diet causes a hippocampal neuroinflammatory response and neuronal loss in animals, but in this study Li and the team (2019) explored the changes in gut microbiota and intestinal epithelial barrier that accompany hippocampal neuroinflammation due to the high-fructose diet. The hippocampal neuroinflammatory response, reactive gliosis and […]
