Peripheral administration of lipopolysaccharide induces the expression of cytokine transcripts in the brain and pituitary of mice
The reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used to assess the induction of mRNA of the proinflammatory cytokines IL-1 beta, IL-6 and TNF alpha in the splee...
Induction of pro-inflammatory cytokine mRNAs in the brain after peripheral injection of subseptic doses of lipopolysaccharide in the rat
Although it is generally accepted that pro-inflammatory cytokines produced by cells of the central nervous system play important roles in the communication between the central n...
Interleukin-1beta and tumor necrosis factor-alpha are expressed by different subsets of microglia and macrophages after ischemic stroke in mice
Abstract Background Interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) are expressed by microglia and infiltrating macrophages following ischemic stroke. Whereas IL-1β i...
Single-Cell RNA Sequencing of Microglia throughout the Mouse Lifespan and in the Injured Brain Reveals Complex Cell-State Changes
Microglia, the resident immune cells of the brain, rapidly change states in response to their environment, but we lack molecular and functional signatures of different microglia...
Chemotaxis by a CNS macrophage, the microglia
Abstract Microglia demonstrate many characteristics similar to those seen in monocytes and tissue‐specific macrophages, including phagocytosis, production of oxygen radicals, an...
