Thanks to all participants!
Minisimposium on #ASD: genetics, molecular mechanisms, circuits and behaviour. Organized by @UPV/EHU and @AchucarroGlia. Join us!!! Speakers and details below.
New paper is out in Brain, Behavior, and Immunity!! 🥳
"P2X4 Drives Sex-Specific neuroprotection in autoimmune neuroinflammation"
doi.org/10.1016/j.bbi.2026.1…
We found that the purinergic receptor P2X4 protects against neuroinflammation, but only in females. Why? 🧵👇
