Microglia (immune cells) and the RANK protein are essential for triggering puberty and maintaining fertility in the brain.
Fetal brain development can be negatively impacted by an infection that occurs in utero, and the resulting maternal inflammation. Indeed, an illness in a mother is associated with an increased risk of ...
LA JOLLA (May 11, 2023)—Situated at the intersection of the human immune system and the brain are microglia, specialized brain immune cells that play a crucial role in development and disease.
An international research team headed by scientists at the Salk Institute for Biological Sciences has developed an organoid model—a three-dimensional collection of cells that mimics features of human ...
A new study has discovered the important role that a subset of microglia, the brain’s immune cells, plays in early brain development, cognition and memory. The finding gives us a better understanding ...
