Microglia Regulate Pruning of Specialized Synapses in the Auditory Brainstem

Microglia Regulate Pruning of Specialized Synapses in the Auditory Brainstem

The assembly of uniquely organized sound localization circuits in the brainstem requires precise developmental mechanisms. Glial cells have been shown to shape synaptic connections in the retinogeniculate system during development, but their contributions to specialized auditory synapses have not be...
