2021-06-02
Abstract excerpt
The fetal period is a critical time for brain development, characterized by neurogenesis, neural migration, and synaptogenesis 1-3 . Microglia, the tissue resident macrophages of the brain, are observed as early as the fourth week of gestation 4 and are thought to engage in a variety of processes essential for brain development and homeostasis 5-11 . Conversely, microglia phenotypes are highly regulated by the...
