The incorporation of blood-brain barrier-like structures and immune cells, such as microglia, into these organoids allows researchers to investigate how these components influence neural ...

The microglia, a group of cells which are nicknamed the ‘housekeepers’ of the brain play an integral role in maintaining ...

Microglia are the brain's immune cells known to play a vital role in maintaining neural function and responding to potential threats. However, when the brain is subjected to hyperosmotic stress ...

Microglia, the brain's immune cells, exhibit altered gene expression and a weakened immune response as they age, potentially contributing to neurological disorders like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's.
