The impact of nutrition on COVID-19 susceptibility and long-term consequences
MJ Butler, RM Barrientos - Brain, behavior, and immunity, 2020 - Elsevier
While all groups are affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, the elderly, underrepresented
minorities, and those with underlying medical conditions are at the greatest risk. The high rate of …

mRNA up-regulation of MHC II and pivotal pro-inflammatory genes in normal brain aging
In normal brain aging, CNS resident macrophages exhibit increased expression of major
histocompatibility complex (MHC) II expression. However, the transcriptional basis for this …

Hippocampal formation supports conditioning to memory of a context.
It has been proposed that contextual fear conditioning depends on 2 processes:(a)
construction of a conjunctive representation of the features that make up the context and (b) …
