Fate Mapping Reveals Origins and Dynamics of Monocytes and Tissue Macrophages under Homeostasis

TL;DR: A fate-mapping study of the murine monocyte and macrophage compartment taking advantage of constitutive and conditional CX(3)CR1 promoter-driven Cre recombinase expression is reported, establishing that short-lived Ly6C(+) monocytes constitute obligatory steady-state precursors of blood-resident Ly 6C(-) cells and that the abundance of Ly6 C(+) blood monocytes dynamically controls the circulation lifespan of their progeny.

Fate Mapping Reveals Origins and Dynamics of Monocytes and Tissue Macrophages under Homeostasis (vol 38, pg 79, 2013)

TL;DR: In this paper, a fate-mapping study of the macrophage compartment is presented, taking advantage of constitutive and conditional CX(3)CR1 promoter-driven Cre recombinase expression.

Dendritic cells, monocytes and macrophages: a unified nomenclature based on ontogeny

TL;DR: This Opinion article suggests that the mononuclear phagocyte system can be classified primarily by their ontogeny and secondarily by their location, function and phenotype, which permits a more robust classification during both steady-state and inflammatory conditions.

A new type of microglia gene targeting shows TAK1 to be pivotal in CNS autoimmune inflammation

TL;DR: A mouse experimental system that specifically targets microglia found TAK1 to be pivotal in CNS autoimmunity, and it is presented as a tool for future investigations of microglial function in the CNS.
