PetriThe structural aspects of multilayers of poly(4-vinyl-N-ethylpyridinium bromide), QPVP-C2, or poly(4-vinyl-N-pentylpyridinium bromide), QPVP-C5, deposited alternately with carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) onto Si/SiO2 wafers or polystyrene (PS) films were investigated.To cite this article before page numbers are assigned, use the DOI form of citation above.The content of this RSS Feed (c) The Royal Society of Chemistry (Source: RSC - Soft Matter latest articles)

Viral-toxin interactions and Parkinson's disease: poly(I:C) priming enhanced the neurodegenerative effects of paraquat
Conclusions: These findings suggest that viral agents can sensitize microglial-dependent inflammatory responses, thereby rendering nigral DA neurons vulnerable to further environmental toxin exposure. (Source: Journal of Neuroinflammation)
