Cellular Basis of Pineal Gland Development: Emerging Role of Microglia as Phenotype Regulator.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2016

Ibañez Rodriguez María P, Noctor Stephen C, Muñoz Estela M

Abstract excerpt

The adult pineal gland is composed of pinealocytes, astrocytes, microglia, and other interstitial cells that have been described in detail. However, factors that contribute to pineal development have not been fully elucidated, nor have pineal cell lineages been well characterized. We applied systematic double, triple and quadruple labeling of cell-specific markers on prenatal, postnatal and mature rat pineal...
