β-hydroxybutyrate improves the redox status, cytokine production, and phagocytic potency of glucose-deprived HMC3 human microglia-like cells

Research Report: β-Hydroxybutyrate Improves Redox State, Cytokine Secretion, and Phagocytic Ability of Glucose-Deprived HMC3 Human Microglia Introduction Microglia are resident neuroimmune cells in the brain, accounting for 5-12% of total neuroglial cells, with strong migration, proliferation, and phagocytic abilities. For example, microglia mainta...

Morphotype-Specific Calcium Signaling in Human Microglia

Morphology-Specific Calcium Signaling Characteristics in Human Microglia Background and Research Objectives Microglia are the primary immune cells of the central nervous system (CNS), involved in almost all physiological and pathological processes, including development, synaptic transmission, neuroplasticity, sleep, trauma, glioblastoma, and neuro...
