Structural and functional distinctions of co-resident microglia and monocyte-derived macrophages after retinal degeneration
12 Dec 2022
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Both resident microglia and invading peripheral immune cells can respond to injury and degeneration in the central nervous system. However, after dead and dying neurons have been cleared and homeostasis is re-established, it is unknown whether resident immune cells fully resume normal functions and to what degree the peripheral immune cells take up residence. METHODS: mouse model of inducible...
