Lipofuscin-like autofluorescence within microglia and its impact on studying microglial engulfment
Abstract Engulfment of cellular material and proteins is a key function for microglia, a resident macrophage of the central nervous system (CNS). Among the techniques used to measure microglial engulfment, confocal light microscopy has been used the most extensively. Here, we show that autofluoresce...
