Sustained microglial depletion with CSF1R inhibitor impairs parenchymal plaque development in an Alzheimer's disease model. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Many risk genes for the development of Alzheimer's disease (AD) are exclusively or highly expressed in myeloid cells. Microglia are dependent on colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF1R) signaling for their survival.

Metastasis on pause: How dormant tumor cells stay hidden within the tumor microenvironment and evade immune surveillance

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Dormant cancer cells can hide in distant organs for years, evading treatment and the immune system. This review highlights how signals from the surrounding tissue and immune environment keep these cells inactive or trigger their reawakening. Understanding these mechanisms may help develop therapies to eliminate or control dormant cells and prevent ...

Tools and Approaches for Studying Microglia In vivo

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020

TREX1 is expressed by microglia in normal human brain and increases in regions affected by ischemia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
BACKGROUND: Mutations in the three-prime repair exonuclease 1 (TREX1) gene have been associated with neurological diseases, including Retinal Vasculopathy with Cerebral Leukoencephalopathy (RVCL).

Microglial dynamics and ferroptosis induction in human iPSC‐derived neuron–astrocyte–microglia tri‐cultures

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
A tri‐culture of iPSC‐derived neurons, astrocytes, and microglia treated with ferroptosis inducers as an Induced ferroptosis model was characterized by scRNA‐seq, cell survival, and cytokine release assays. This analysis revealed diverse microglial transcriptomic changes, indicating that the system captures key aspects of the complex cellular ...

In vitro models of microglia: a comparative study

open access: yesScientific Reports
Microglia perform key homeostatic functions to protect the central nervous system (CNS). However, in many brain disorders their protective functions are abrogated, contributing to disease progression.

Rod microglia: a morphological definition. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Brain microglial morphology relates to function, with ramified microglia surveying the micro-environment and amoeboid microglia engulfing debris. One subgroup of microglia, rod microglia, have been observed in a number of pathological conditions, however

What microglia depletion approaches tell us about the role of microglia on synaptic function and behavior

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2022
Microglia are dynamic cells, constantly surveying their surroundings and interacting with neurons and synapses. Indeed, a wealth of knowledge has revealed a critical role of microglia in modulating synaptic transmission and plasticity in the developing ...

In vivo imaging reveals transient microglia recruitment and functional recovery of photoreceptor signaling after injury. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Microglia respond to damage and microenvironmental changes within the central nervous system by morphologically transforming and migrating to the lesion, but the real-time behavior of populations of these resident immune cells and the neurons they ...

Microglia shape presynaptic properties at developing glutamatergic synapses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Deficient neuron-microglia signaling during brain development is associated with abnormal synaptic maturation. However, the precise impact of deficient microglia function on synaptic maturation and the mechanisms involved remain poorly defined.
