Microglia are ramified cells that exhibit highly motile processes, which continuously survey
the brain parenchyma and react to any insult to the CNS homeostasis. Although microglia …

The functional contribution of microglia to normal brain development, healthy brain function,
and neurological disorders is increasingly recognized. However, until recently, the nature of …

The human retina contains three types of glial cells: microglia and two types of macroglia,
