Abstract excerpt
Employing immunohistochemical techniques and a panel of monoclonal antibodies that recognize rat cells of monocyte/macrophage lineage, we have demonstrated that cells labeled with these antibodies are widely distributed throughout the parenchyma of the rat brain. These cells have a remarkable microglial morphology and form phenotypically heterogenous populations. Double immunoperoxidase staining with the...
