TLDR
The mechanisms involved in regulating microglia activation and polarization were reviewed and the role of microRNAs and transplanted stem cells in mediating microgliancation and polarization during brain ischemia was studied.

A lineage of myeloid cells independent of Myb and hematopoietic stem cells

TL;DR: Schulz et al. as discussed by the authors investigated whether adult macrophages all share a common developmental origin and found that a population of yolk-sac-derived, tissue-resident macophages was able to develop and persist in adult mice in the absence of hematopoietic stem cells.

M2 microglia-derived exosomes protect the mouse brain from ischemia-reperfusion injury via exosomal miR-124.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that M2 microglia-derived exosomes attenuated ischemic brain injury and promoted neuronal survival via exosomal miR-124 and its downstream target USP14.
Journal ArticleDOI

Microglia and Monocytes/Macrophages Polarization Reveal Novel Therapeutic Mechanism against Stroke.

TL;DR: Although future translational studies are required, M2-like microglia and monocytes/macrophages therapies are attractive for managing stroke based on their protective functions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Glial Cells: Role of the Immune Response in Ischemic Stroke.

TL;DR: The mechanisms of post-stroke immune regulation mediated by glial cells and the interaction between glia cells and neurons are discussed and the potential roles of variousglial cells at different stages of ischemic stroke are described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dual Functions of Microglia in Ischemic Stroke

TL;DR: It is suggested that microglial activation is also critical for neurogenesis, angiogenesis, and synaptic remodeling, thereby promoting functional recovery after cerebral ischemia and the possible mechanisms controlling the post-ischemic activity of microglia.

Alternative activation of macrophages

TL;DR: The evidence in favour of alternative macrophage activation by the TH2-type cytokines interleukin-4 (IL-4) and IL-13 is assessed, and its limits and relevance to a range of immune and inflammatory conditions are defined.
Journal ArticleDOI

The chemokine system in diverse forms of macrophage activation and polarization.

TL;DR: Recent evidence suggests that differential modulation of the chemokine system integrates polarized macrophages in pathways of resistance to, or promotion of, microbial pathogens and tumors, or immunoregulation, tissue repair and remodeling.
Journal ArticleDOI

Role of AMP-activated protein kinase in mechanism of metformin action

TL;DR: It is reported that metformin activates AMPK in hepatocytes; as a result, acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) activity is reduced, fatty acid oxidation is induced, and expression of lipogenic enzymes is suppressed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Monocyte and macrophage heterogeneity

TL;DR: Recent studies have shown that monocyte heterogeneity is conserved in humans and mice, allowing dissection of its functional relevance: the different monocyte subsets seem to reflect developmental stages with distinct physiological roles, such as recruitment to inflammatory lesions or entry to normal tissues.
Journal ArticleDOI

Resting Microglial Cells Are Highly Dynamic Surveillants of Brain Parenchyma in Vivo

TL;DR: Using in vivo two-photon imaging in neocortex, it is found that microglial cells are highly active in their presumed resting state, continually surveying their microenvironment with extremely motile processes and protrusions.
