R茅duire l鈥檌nflammation du cerveau 鈥 l鈥檃pproche prometteuse d鈥檜ne nouvelle 茅tude
<p>Lors d鈥檜ne r茅cente 茅tude, les scientifiques du Centre Azrieli de recherche sur l鈥檃utisme (CARA) ont d茅couvert une m茅thode favorisant la r茅duction de l鈥檌nflammation c茅r茅brale.听</p>
New study finds promising approach for reducing brain inflammation
<p>A new study by researchers at the Azrieli Centre for Autism Research (ACAR) has uncovered a promising approach for reducing brain inflammation.听</p>
<p>Glial cells, which support and protect neurons, can become overactive during injury and brain inflammation. This overactivity may contribute to chronic neurodegeneration and worsen brain disorders. Understanding how this process, called reactive gliosis, is controlled could help scientists better understand brain diseases and improve treatments.听听</p>

Charting a Safer Course: Advancements in Chronic Pain Treatment
<p>Chronic pain affects one in every five individuals, yet effective treatment options are far and few between. Too often, chronic pain patients are left to choose between opioids, anticonvulsants for nerve pain and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as ibuprofen and naproxen, all of which present their own negative side effects.</p>

Brains on a Dish: Revolutionizing Parkinson鈥檚 Disease research with brain organoids
<p>Parkinson鈥檚 Disease (PD) affects nearly 100,000 Canadians and 10 million people worldwide. Characterized by a dopamine deficiency in the brain, this neurodegenerative disease disrupts signal transmission in the brain, impacting its proper functioning. Motor symptoms, like tremors, slowness of movement and imbalance problems can appear and deteriorate in patients who have quietly carried the disease for years. Equally devastating are PD鈥檚 lesser-known symptoms, like depression, anxiety, hallucinations, dizziness and sleep disorders.</p>
