Brain-derived neurotrophic factor induces sustained elevation of intracellular Ca2+ in rodent microglia.
Microglia are intrinsic immune cells that release factors, including proinflammatory cytokines, NO, and neurotrophins, following activation after disturbance in the brain. Elevation of intracellular Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)]i) is important for microglial functions, such as the release of cytokines and NO from activated microglia. There is increasing evidence suggesting that pathophysiology...
متن کاملMicroglia Promote Learning-Dependent Synapse Formation through Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor
Microglia are the resident macrophages of the CNS, and their functions have been extensively studied in various brain pathologies. The physiological roles of microglia in brain plasticity and function, however, remain unclear. To address this question, we generated CX3CR1(CreER) mice expressing tamoxifen-inducible Cre recombinase that allow for specific manipulation of gene function in microgli...
متن کاملMorphine-induced chemotaxis and brain-derived neurotrophic factor expression in microglia.
The addition of morphine at 1 mum induced morphological changes of cultured microglia such that they changed from having globular or bipolar rod-like shapes to being flat and lamellipodial, with membrane ruffling at the edge, which was stained with phalloidin. The membrane ruffling was clearly colocalized with Rac. Morphine also induced chemotaxis in Boyden chamber analysis at concentrations of...
متن کاملCorneal Epithelium-Derived Neurotrophic Factors Promote Nerve Regeneration.
Purpose To explore the neurotrophic factor expression in corneal epithelium and evaluate their effects on the trigeminal ganglion (TG) neurite outgrowth and corneal nerve regeneration in mice. Methods The expression of neurotrophic factors was compared among the intact, regenerating, and regenerated mouse corneal epithelium. Mouse primary TG neurons were treated with the conditioned medium of...
