Microglia Don’t Treat All Neurons the Same: The Importance of Neuronal Subtype in Microglia-Neuron Interactions in the Developing Hypothalamus
Microglia are now well-known as integral regulators of brain development, phagocytosing whole neurons, and pruning weak or excess synapses in order to sculpt and refine immature circuits. However, the importance of neuronal subtype in guiding microglial activity has not received much attention until...
