Imaging of microglia in patients with neurodegenerative disorders
Microglia constitute the main immune defense in the central nervous system. In response to neuronal injury, microglia become activated, acquire phagocytic properties and release a wide range of pro-inflammatory mediators that are essential for the annihilation of the neuronal insult. Although the ro...
