A sequence of stress signals among specialized clean-up cells in the brain could at last reveal why some immune responses can ...

This study describes a valuable new model for in vivo manipulation of microglia, exploring how mutations in the Adar1 gene within microglia contribute to Aicardi-Goutières Syndome. The methodology is ...

The study, published in the journal Neuron, highlights microglia, the brain's primary immune cells, as central players in both the protective and harmful responses associated with the disease.

The study, published in the journal Neuron, highlights microglia, the brain's primary immune cells, as central players in both the protective and harmful responses associated with the disease.

The study, published in the journal Neuron, says the brain's primary immune cells - called microglia - play a key role in protecting the brain from the disease. Microglia are often dubbed the ...

Electron micrographs show typical microglia in the prefrontal cortex of a 92-year-old healthy female (left) and dark microglia a 91-year-old female patient with Alzheimer’s disease (right).

The study, published in the journal Neuron, highlights microglia, the brain's primary immune cells, as central players in both the protective and harmful responses associated with the disease.
