It is not currently possible to reliably visualise and track immune cells in the human central nervous system or eye. Previous work demonstrated that indocyanine green (ICG) dye could label immune cells and be imaged after a delay during disease in the mouse retina. We report a pilot study investigating if ICG can similarly label immune cells…[Read more]

Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease became one of the major causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. As a sulfated polysaccharide with anti-inflammatory and hypolipidemic activities, fucoidan can induce autophagy. We show here that fucoidan reduces lipid accumulation in foam cells, which is one of the causes of atherosclerosis. Further…[Read more]
