The Role of Microglial Cellular Senescence in the Aging and Alzheimer Diseased Brain
1 Jun 2005
Abstract excerpt
With each cell division, telomeres progressively shorten until they reach a critical length, at which point the cells enter cellular senescence. Microglia, a non-neuronal cell type residing within the central nervous system (CNS), play vital roles in maintaining neuronal function, health, and survival in both the normal and pathological CNS. A recent article described an increased incidence of microglial...
