New #URochesterResearch finds “safer” PFAS ⬆️ anxiety-related behaviors & memory deficits in male mice – researchers say this is reminiscent of the neurodevelopmental disorders that are male-biased @URNeuroscience @EJNeuroscience onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/ej… urmc.rochester.edu/news/publicati…
A Review via @ToxSci: From pesticides to heavy metals, diverse environmental toxins can trigger astrocytic senescence—shedding light on how pollution may accelerate neurodegenerative disease #URochesterResearch @UR_IHHE @URochester_SMD Paper: doi.org/10.1093/toxsci…

✨Our newest @eLife paper out today!✨ 👉 elifesciences.org/articles/98662 When retinal photoreceptor cells are damaged, microglia race into action, but don't recruit neutrophils from nearby blood vessels @FlaumEye @eLife @CvsUor @URNeuroscience @NEIDirector #NIHfunded and @RPB_org
#URochesterResearch by @schalleklab found when photoreceptor cells in the retina are damaged the brain’s immune cells respond and neutrophils are not recruited to help despite passing through nearby blood vessels @FlaumEye via @eLife 👉 elifesciences.org/articles/98662
