Aux origines de l’humanité
Human Origins : Tracking the Human Biological and Cultural Evolution from the Study of the Brain of our Ancestors. Who were the hominins associated to the oldest tools that were found in East Africa ? If the lithic artefacts could be mute on these aspects of our history, the field of (paleo) neurology may contribute to the ongoing debates on the identity of the first toolmakers and the assessment of their cognitive capacities. In this paper, we p…
Loss of ferritin‐positive microglia relates to increased iron, RNA oxidation, and dystrophic microglia in the brains of aged male marmosets
Microglia are cells that protect brain tissue from invading agents and toxic substances, first by releasing pro-inflammatory cytokines, and thereafter by clearing tissue by phagocytosis. Microglia express ferritin, a protein with ferroxidase activity capable of storing iron, a metal that accumulates in brain during aging. Increasing evidence suggests that ferritin plays an important role in inflammation. However, it is not known if ferritin/iron …
