Microglia detection and phagocytosis of dying neurons is regulated by CX3CR1

2026-04-06

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Neuronal cell death is a hallmark of many neurodegenerative diseases. Effective detection and clearance of cell debris generated during cell death events is essential to prevent a degenerative cascade. Brain resident microglia are responsible for performing these functions through complex cell-cell signaling involving both “find-me” and “eat-me” cues. To examine microglial responses to neuronal...
