A Custom Panel for Profiling Microglia Gene Expression

Cells
Despite being immune cells of the central nervous system (CNS), microglia contribute to CNS development, maturation, and homeostasis, and microglia dysfunction has been implicated in several neurological disorders.

Adaptive Müller cell responses to microglial activation mediate neuroprotection and coordinate inflammation in the retina

Journal of Neuroinflammation, 2011
Purpose Microglia and Müller cells are prominent participants in retinal responses to injury and disease that shape eventual tissue adaptation or damage.

microRNA‐7‐5p and α‐Synuclein SAA Predict Parkinson's Disease Phenoconversion

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Corroborate blood neuron‐derived extracellular vesicle (NDEV) alpha‐synuclein (αSyn), the CSF αSyn seed amplification assay (αSyn‐SAA), and blood microRNA‐7‐5p (miR‐7‐5p) as markers for Parkinson's disease (PD) phenoconversion and determine if combining these markers would help select subjects who would be more likely to phenoconvert.

Human-induced pluripotent stem cell-derived microglia integrate into mouse retina and recapitulate features of endogenous microglia

eLife
Microglia exhibit both maladaptive and adaptive roles in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases and have emerged as a cellular target for central nervous system (CNS) disorders, including those affecting the retina.

Diffusion Basis Spectrum Imaging of Tissue Microstructure and Early Treatment in Multiple Sclerosis

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Conventional MRI cannot resolve the coexisting pathological processes within multiple sclerosis tissue. Diffusion Basis Spectrum Imaging decomposes the diffusion signal into fiber, cell, and hindered ratios indexing axonal integrity, cellularity, and extracellular space, respectively.

Glucagon‐Like Peptide‐1 Receptor Agonists in Multiple Sclerosis: A Topical Narrative Review

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) receptor agonists (RAs) are a relatively new class of drugs that were initially approved by the US Food and Drug Administration to improve glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and, subsequently, weight reduction in patients with obesity.

The plasticity of primary microglia and their multifaceted effects on endogenous neural stem cells in vitro and in vivo

Journal of Neuroinflammation, 2018
Background Microglia—the resident immune cells of the brain—are activated after brain lesions, e.g., cerebral ischemia, and polarize towards a classic “M1” pro-inflammatory or an alternative “M2” anti-inflammatory phenotype following characteristic ...

Dynamic Changes in Serum Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein Levels Predicts Early Neurological Deterioration After Intravenous Thrombolysis in Minor Stroke

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Minor strokes may be associated with early neurological deterioration (END) and disabilities. The objective was to investigate the role of serum glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) levels in predicting END. Methods Data originated from a multicenter cohort study conducted prospectively.

Microglia in Alzheimer’s Disease [PDF]

BioMed Research International, 2014
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a familiar neurodegenerative disease in the elderly. In this paper, we will review current viewpoints of microglial activation, inflammatory regulatory systems, and their relationship with AD pathology and etiology. Microglia cells are macrophage and representative of the innate immune system in brain.

Stage‐Specific Patterns of Imaging and Non‐Motor Biomarkers in Spinocerebellar Ataxia Type 3

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Advancements in disease‐modifying therapies for spinocerebellar ataxia Type 3 (SCA3) underscore the need for robust biomarkers to monitor disease progression and evaluate treatment efficacy. Although motor phenotypes have been well characterized, less is known about non‐motor and imaging‐based features across different disease stages.
