CSF1R inhibitors induce a sex-specific resilient microglial phenotype and functional rescue in a tauopathy mouse model

Tau-mediated neurodegeneration is driven by disease-activated microglia and suppressed by their pharmacological blockade. The authors identified drug dose- and sex-dependent residual microglial phenotypes, neuronal excitotoxicity, and animal survival.
