During acute infections and chronic illnesses, the pro-inflammatory cytokine interleukin-1β (IL-1β) acts within the brain to elicit metabolic derangements and sickness behaviors. It is unknown which cells in the brain are the proximal targets for IL-1β with respect to the
Sensory and cognitive impairments have been documented in diabetic humans and animals, but the pathophysiology of diabetes in the central nervous system is poorly understood. Because a high glucose level disrupts gap junctional communication in various cell types and astrocytes
The prion protein PrPc is a glycoprotein of unknown function normally found in neurons and glia. It is involved in diseases such as bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), scrapie and Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. PrPSc, an altered isoform of PrPC that is associated
To elucidate the role played by the prion protein in scrapie pathogenesis, we performed experiments with PrP27-30 isolated from scrapie-infected hamster brains in cell culture and studied in vivo the temporal and spatial correlation between deposition of the disease-associated isoform

The transfer of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (hu-PBMC) from adult Epstein-Barr-virus(EBV)-seropositive donors in SCID (severe combined immunodeficiency) mice frequently leads to the development of a human B lymphoproliferative syndrome (hu-BLPS). Therefore, as 90% of adult potential donors are EBV-seropositive
