Does exercise reduce activation of microglia isolated from hippocampus and brain of aged mice?
Overall, these data indicate that running-wheel access modulates microglia activation, but these effects vary by age, sex, and brain region.
The results suggest that both genetic (i.e., spontaneous) and therapeutic (IFN-based therapy) arms are complementary in the battle against HCV. CMV DNA testing may be of value to better predict the response to IFN, particularly in IL28B C/T carriers.
