Microglia shape the embryonic development of mammalian respiratory networks

Microglia shape the embryonic development of mammalian respiratory networks

Microglia, brain-resident macrophages, play key roles during prenatal development in defining neural circuitry function, including ensuring proper synaptic wiring and maintaining homeostasis. Mammalian breathing rhythmogenesis arises from interacting brainstem neural networks that are assembled duri...
