The phenotypic convergence between microglia and peripheral macrophages during development and neuroinflammation paves the way for new therapeutic perspectives

Microglia, the tissue resident macrophages of the brain, are increasingly recognized as key players for central nervous system development and homeostasis. They are long-lived cells deriving from a transient wave of yolk-sac derived erythro-myeloid progenitors early in development. Their unique onto...
