Microglia are innate immune cells resident in the brain. They are quite similar to the macrophages found elsewhere in the body, but specialized to the central nervous system. In addition to the tasks of chasing down pathogens and participating in regenerative from injury, they are also involved in the processes of maintaining and altering synaptic connections between neurons. Like macrophages, microglia can adopt different packages of behavior in response to environment and circumstances. This is commonly described in terms of the broad M1 and <a href="https://en….
