Alternatively activated microglia and macrophages in the central nervous system.

Progress in neurobiology - 1 Aug 2015

Franco Rafael, Fernández-Suárez Diana

Abstract excerpt

Macrophages are important players in the fight against viral, bacterial, fungal and parasitic infections. From a resting state they may undertake two activation pathways, the classical known as M1, or the alternative known as M2. M1 markers are mostly mediators of pro-inflammatory responses whereas M2 markers emerge for resolution and cleanup. Microglia exerts in the central nervous system (CNS) a function...
