Human iPSC-derived mature microglia retain their identity and functionally integrate in the chimeric mouse brain

Human microglia present unique features; therefore, chimeric mouse models can enhance modelling of human microglia response in health and disease. Here, the authors show that hiPSC-derived mature microglia developed in the mouse brain, retain their identity and respond to demyelination.
