Journal ArticleDOI
Microglia: active sensor and versatile effector cells in the normal and pathologic brain
TL;DR: This review focuses on several key observations that illustrate the multi-faceted activities of microglia in the normal and pathologic brain.
Journal ArticleDOI
Physiology of Microglia
TL;DR: Current studies indicate that even in the normal brain, microglia have highly motile processes by which they scan their territorial domains, and microglial cells are considered the most susceptible sensors of brain pathology.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microglia as a source and target of cytokines.
TL;DR: Strong responses and modulatory influences can be demonstrated, adding to the emerging view that microglial behavior is highly dependent on the (cytokine) environment and that reactions to a challenge may vary with the stimulation context.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microglia in the adult brain arise from Ly-6ChiCCR2+ monocytes only under defined host conditions
Alexander Mildner,Hauke Schmidt,Mirko Nitsche,Doron Merkler,Uwe-Karsten Hanisch,Matthias Mack,Mathias Heikenwalder,Wolfgang Brück,Josef Priller,Marco Prinz +9 more
TL;DR: Using a panel of bone marrow chimeric and adoptive transfer experiments, it is found that circulating Ly-6ChiCCR2+ monocytes were preferentially recruited to the lesioned brain and differentiated into microglia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Selective transfer of exosomes from oligodendrocytes to microglia by macropinocytosis
Dirk Fitzner,Dirk Fitzner,Mareike Schnaars,Denise van Rossum,Gurumoorthy Krishnamoorthy,Payam Dibaj,Mostafa Bakhti,Tommy Regen,Uwe-Karsten Hanisch,Mikael Simons,Mikael Simons +10 more
TL;DR: It is proposed that the constitutive macropinocytotic clearance of exosomes by a subset of microglia represents an important mechanism through whichmicroglia participate in the degradation of oligodendroglial membrane in an immunologically ‘silent’ manner.
