Abstract excerpt
Microglia are highly dynamic cells that play a critical role in tissue homeostasis through the surveillance of brain parenchyma and response to cues associated with damage. Aging and APOE4 genotype are the strongest risk factors for Alzheimer's disease (AD), but how they affect microglial dynamics remains unclear. Using ex vivo confocal microscopy, we analyzed microglial dynamic behaviors in the entorhinal cortex...
