A research group led by Nagoya University Graduate School of Medicine in Japan has uncovered a potential mechanism linking maternal inflammation to delayed neurodevelopment in infants. The research ...

Microglia, the brain's immune cells, usually serve as diligent guardians. They eliminate intruders such as microbes and clear away cellular debris—including the plaques typical of Alzheimer's disease.

Notably, microglia spatially associated with amyloid plaques exhibited increased expression of TREM2 and ApoE compared to such cells in non-immunized controls, regardless of whether the treatment was ...

Microglia are brain-resident macrophages playing pivotal roles in CNS development and homeostasis. Yet, the cellular and molecular basis governing microglia maintenance ...
