ATP and adenosine induce ramification of microglia in vitro.

Journal of neuroimmunology - 2 Apr 2001

Wollmer M A, Lucius R, Wilms H, Held-Feindt J, Sievers J, Mentlein R

Abstract excerpt

Microglial cells in the healthy adult brain possess a characteristic ramified morphology with multiple branched processes, small somata and down-regulated inflammatory properties. In contrast, microglial cells isolated from new-born rat brain inevitably show a non-ramified amoeboid phenotype, which is observed in vivo after pathologic activation or during development. To identify factors that control microglial...
