Research Abstract |
The ability of microglia to proliferate, produce harmful factors, express phagocytic properties and present antigens has been considered to be switched on/off by intracellular signal transduction mechanism. However, the experiments using rat facial nerve transection model and in vitro model revealed that the abilities of microglia were suggested to be switched on/off by specific factors present in extracellular space, but not by intracellular signal transduction mechanism.
