Targeting of adult microglia, the brain-resident macrophages
Microglia are known as the resident macrophages in central nervous system (CNS). They play important roles in immune defense, phagocytosis of cellular debris and tissue maintenance in CNS parenchyma. On the other hand, they also contribute to pathological conditions such as neurodegenerative disease...
