Quotes

"In addition, norepinephrine needs to be considered as an initial therapeutic agent for patients in circulatory shock... The results of the study by De Backer et al should also put an end to the outdated view that the use of norepinephrine increases the risk of death."
...'To penetrate the astrocyte, the pathological protein goes through a 'scavenger' receptor.' explains Igor Allaman. "Our study has shown that if we impair Amyloid-Beta build-up, or activation of this receptor, astrocytes continue to fulfil their normal neuroprotective functions even in the presence of the Amyloid-Beta."
