Researchers have identified a key role microglia play in melanoma brain metastases progression and mechanisms to target them.

This crew is called the microglia—the immune cells of the central nervous system. Microglia are imperative to maintaining neuronal function by clearing toxins in the brain and central nervous system.

Microglia are imperative to maintaining neuronal function by clearing toxins in the brain and central nervous system. But if they are overactive, they can damage neurons instead and, in some cases ...

During development, there are known sex-related differences in how microglia function. But into adulthood, there was thought to be less variation in how they behave. Microglia maintain neuronal ...

Researchers find that microglia function differently in males versus females, potentially having broad implications for how neurological diseases are studied. A collision happens. Someone is hurt ...

Researchers at University of Tsukuba have discovered a novel mechanism involved in brain development. They found that small fragments called micronuclei produced by neuronal nuclei are released into ...

Wu and colleagues confirmed that cultured-microglia-carrying lipid droplets struggled with phagocytosis, poorly engulfing ...
