#microglia — Public Fediverse posts

Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #microglia, aggregated by home.social.

  1. Interestingly, #Virchow also introduced the concept of #neuroglia as a distinct #cellular component of the #NervousSystem. This was a crucial step in understanding the cellular composition of the nervous system and laid the groundwork for later #neuroscience research on glial cells.

  2. Loss of Smell Linked to Early Alzheimer’s Immune Activity

    📰 Original title: Your nose could detect Alzheimer’s years before symptoms begin

  3. @MaFu55 #CX3CR1 deficiency enhances microglial reactivity while limiting GB cell migration, and CSF1R inhibition also constrains #tumor microtube #plasticity. Together, the data place #microglia directly in the control of #glioblastoma invasion dynamics.

    Huge congrats to Felix and all co-authors! 🥳

  4. 🧠 New paper from the @MaFu55 lab! 🥳

    Felix shows that #microglia shape #glioblastoma invasion at the far infiltration zone. Using in vivo #3photon #imaging, he finds dynamic microglial responses, and shows that microglial manipulation reduces GB migration and limits #tumormicrotube #plasticity.

  6. News to me: Local translation isn't limited to neurons, apparently also happens in glial processes. See here for #microglia:

    Local translation in microglial processes is required for efficient phagocytosis

  7. 'For example, loss of function of the microglial gene Trem2 renders microglia dysfunctional and causes an early-onset neurodegenerative syndrome, and Trem2 variants are among the strongest genetic risk factors for AD. Thus, restoring microglial function represents a rational therapeutic approach. Here, we show that systemic hematopoietic cell transplantation followed by enhancement of microglia replacement restores microglial function in a Trem2 mutant mouse model of AD.'
