Abstract excerpt
Abstract Background We generated a mouse model of primary microglial dysfunction by deleting two negative immune regulatory genes, Cx3cr1 and Socs3 (in LysM + cells). This study aimed to understand how primary microglial dysfunction impacts retinal neurons during aging. Methods The LysMCre-Socs3 fl/fl Cx3cr1 gfp/gfp double knockout (DKO), LysMCre-Socs3 fl/fl , Cx3cr1 gfp/gfp and Socs3 fl/fl mice were maintained...
