Ghosts in the shell: identification of microglia in the human central nervous system by P2Y12 receptor
Alexander Mildner
摘要：Microglia are the tissue resident macrophages of the brain and represent the sole immune population located in the parenchyma of the central nervous system (CNS). These cells are hidden between neurons, astrocytes as well as oligodendrocytes and account for only 5–10% of CNS cells. Even though microglia were already identified in 1913 by the Spanish neuroanatomist Ramon y Cajal and further seminally investigated by his student Pio del Rio Hortega, the specific identification of these 'ghostly' cells was, and still is, problematic.
