A unique quality of both the immune and the nerves system is the ability to memorize. This ability is accomplished by intimate cell to cell interactions termed synapses or immune synapses. We believe that such close cellular communication is also present between the different cells of the immune and the nerves system. Moreover, our understanding that such neuronal-immune dialogue is crucial to maintain brain homeostasis and prevent pathophysiology as in aging and metabolic related disease.
