The first single-cell and spatial atlas of the developing human meninges shows that meningioma tumours transcriptionally ...

A paired single-nucleus RNA and chromatin atlas with spatial transcriptomics charts how the human meninges, their blood-brain ...

A new study, led by researchers at the University of Gothenburg, have generated the first comprehensive transcriptional atlas of neonatal mouse meningeal leukocytes, under normal conditions and after ...

T cells mingle among the immune cells that monitor the meninges, the layered membranes cradling the brain. As mice age, more and more of these cells accumulate there, according to a study published ...

A recent study published in Nature Neuroscience has revealed a vascular platform located in the dura mater of the meninges ...

Scientists at the Institute of Neuroimmunology and Multiple Sclerosis Research at the University Medical Center Göttingen have discovered that pathogenic immune cells use the inner, soft layers of the ...

Some immune defenses of the brain may have their roots in the gut. A new study in mice finds that immune cells are first trained in the gut to recognize and launch attacks on pathogens, and then ...

Meningiomas are usually noncancerous tumors that grow slowly in the brain. Symptoms like headaches or seizures may indicate a ...

Following head injury, the protective lining that surrounds the brain may get a little help from its friends: immune cells that spring into action to assist with repairs. In a new study, scientists ...

Meningitis is an infection of the meninges, which are membranes that surround the brain and spinal cord. Anyone, including adults, can develop meningitis. However, the risk is higher in people with ...

The lower back is home to the lumbar vertebrae, the sacrum, and the coccyx. These are some of the bones responsible for posture, movement, and protection of the spinal cord, which is a long tube of ...
