Microglia Polarization From M1 to M2 in Neurodegenerative Diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2022
Microglia-mediated neuroinflammation is a common feature of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD), Parkinson’s disease (PD), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and multiple sclerosis (MS).

Overview of General and Discriminating Markers of Differential Microglia Phenotypes

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2020
Inflammatory processes and microglia activation accompany most of the pathophysiological diseases in the central nervous system. It is proven that glial pathology precedes and even drives the development of multiple neurodegenerative conditions.

Microglia Function in the Central Nervous System During Health and Neurodegeneration

open access: yesAnnual Review of Immunology, 2017
Microglia are resident cells of the brain that regulate brain development, maintenance of neuronal networks, and injury repair. Microglia serve as brain macrophages but are distinct from other tissue macrophages owing to their unique homeostatic ...

Interaction of Microglia and Astrocytes in the Neurovascular Unit

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
The interaction between microglia and astrocytes significantly influences neuroinflammation. Microglia/astrocytes, part of the neurovascular unit (NVU), are activated by various brain insults.

Human VCP mutant ALS/FTD microglia display immune and lysosomal phenotypes independently of GPNMB [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Neurodegeneration
Background Microglia play crucial roles in maintaining neuronal homeostasis but have been implicated in contributing to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD).

Glial Purinergic Signaling in Neurodegeneration

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2021
Purinergic signaling regulates neuronal and glial cell functions in the healthy CNS. In neurodegenerative diseases, purinergic signaling becomes dysregulated and can affect disease-associated phenotypes of glial cells. In this review, we discuss how cell-

Brain region- and sex-specific transcriptional profiles of microglia

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychiatry, 2022
Microglia are resident macrophages of the brain, performing roles related to brain homeostasis, including modulation of synapses, trophic support, phagocytosis of apoptotic cells and debris, as well as brain protection and repair.
