Abstract Adult neurogenesis in the subgranular zone (SGZ) has been implicated in cognitive and affective functions. The role of neuroinflammation and reactive microglia in SGZ neurogenesis is not well understood. TGF-β signaling is critical to maintaining microglia homeostasis in the adult brain.
Abstract While TGF-β signaling is essential for microglial function, the cellular source of TGF-β1 ligand and its spatial regulation remains unclear in the adult CNS. Our data supports that microglia but not astrocytes or neurons are the primary producers of TGF-β1 ligands needed for microglial homeostasis.
New Results doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/2023.04.17.536878 Abstract The recent proliferation of new Cre and CreER recombinase lines provides researchers with a diverse toolkit to study microglial gene function. To determine how best to apply these lines in studies of microglial gene function, a thorough and detailed comparison of their properties is needed.
