Neural anticipation of virtual infection triggers an immune response - Nature Neuroscience
Serino et al. show that seeing an infectious avatar approach the body in virtual reality triggers an immune response, indicating that the brain prepares the body to fight infections even for perceived...

Divergent sex-specific pannexin-1 mechanisms in microglia and T cells underlie neuropathic pain: Neuron www.cell.com/neuron/fullt...
Divergent sex-specific pannexin-1 mechanisms in microglia and T cells underlie neuropathic pain
Panx1 channels mediate sex-specific immune mechanisms in neuropathic pain: leptin from CD8+ T cells drives pain in females, while VEGF from microglia mediates pain in males. Panx1-targeted therapies o...
