Microglia

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2016
ABSTRACT The concept of the immunological privilege of the central nervous system (CNS) has had a profound influence on studies of interactions between the immune system and the CNS. At one time there was considerable debate as to whether there were any cells in the CNS of myeloid origin, but we now know that there are a number of populations

Quantitative morphometric and cell-type-specific population analysis of microglia-enriched cultures subcloned to high purity from newborn rat brains

open access: yesIBRO Neuroscience Reports, 2021
Morphological and functional characterizations of cultured microglia are essential for the improved understanding of their roles in neuronal health and disease.

Differences in microglia morphological profiles reflect divergent emotional temperaments: insights from a selective breeding model

open access: yesTranslational Psychiatry, 2022
Microglia play critical roles in healthy brain development and function, as well as the neuropathology underlying a range of brain diseases. Despite evidence for a role of microglia in affective regulation and mood disorders, little is known regarding ...

Microglia Polarization with M1/M2 Phenotype Changes in rd1 Mouse Model of Retinal Degeneration

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2017
Microglia activation is recognized as the hallmark of neuroinflammation. However, the activation profile and phenotype changes of microglia during the process of retinal degeneration are poorly understood.

Microglia limit brain tumor development by restricting tumor cell proliferation and inducing T‐cell immunity

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Microglia (BV2) and IL‐4‐treated BMDMs promote astrocytoma clustering and inhibit tumor growth, not shown in other macrophage cells. In vivo, microglial co‐implantation enhances CD8+ T cell infiltration, elevates Granzyme B, lowers circulating MDSCs, and extends survival only in immune‐competent mice, but not in immune‐deficient mice.

Current trends in single‐cell RNA sequencing applications in diabetes mellitus

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Single‐cell RNA sequencing is a powerful approach to decipher the cellular and molecular landscape at a single‐cell resolution. The rapid development of this technology has led to a wide range of applications, including the detection of cellular and molecular mechanisms and the identification and introduction of novel potential diagnostic and ...

Actin dynamics controlled by IqgC, a RasGAP at the crossroads between the IQGAP and fungal GAP1 families

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
IqgC is a RasGAP from Dictyostelium discoideum. IqgC binds RasG via its RasGAP domain and deactivates it on macroendocytic cups, thereby suppressing the uptake of fluid and particles. IqgC has a positive effect on cell‐substratum adhesion, and its RGCt domain is required for recruitment to ventral foci.

Downregulation of PIK3IP1 in retinal microglia promotes retinal pathological neovascularization via PI3K-AKT pathway activation

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Retinal pathological neovascularization involves endothelial cells, pericytes, photoreceptor cells, ganglion cells, and glial cells, whose roles remain unclear.

ROS Generation in Microglia: Understanding Oxidative Stress and Inflammation in Neurodegenerative Disease

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2020
Neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer’s disease, are a global public health burden with poorly understood aetiology. Neuroinflammation and oxidative stress (OS) are undoubtedly hallmarks of neurodegeneration, contributing to disease progression.

Microglia in Development and Disease [PDF]

open access: yesClinical and Developmental Immunology, 2013
The first special issue on microglia was published in 1993 in Glia and others followed in regular, roughly ten-year intervals. Clearly, the importance of microglia has been recognized since the 1980s while the journal Glia has (appropriately) taken the lead in regularly reviewing microglial biology. Also there have been others. The current issue is the
