Description

Microglial Advances in Neurodegenerative Diseases, Volume 170 in the Advances in Immunology series, presents current developments and comprehensive reviews focused on the role of microglia and neuroinflammation in neurological and psychiatric disorders. This volume brings together contributions from leading researchers, offering up-to-date insights into microglial biology in health and disease, as well as their involvement in major neurodegenerative conditions. Chapters in this new release explore Cross-talk between Tau and Neuro-glia Axis of Alzheimer’s Disease, Microglia in Health and Disease, Amyloid-beta (Aβ) and Neuroinflammation in Microglia, Chemokine Receptor CX3CR1 Interacts with Tau and Regulates Microglial Activity in Alzheimer’s Disease, and much more.

Additional chapters explore Human-Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells in Psychiatric Disorders, GPCR-Mediated Internalization and Endosomal Sorting of the Tau–GPCR Complex in Microglia, iPSC-Derived Microglia: A Cellular Platform for Tau and Alzheimer’s Disease Immunotherapy, Advancements in Invasive and Non-Invasive Neuromodulation for Parkinson’s Disease, LRRK2-I1371V Disrupts Microglial Membrane Homeostasis and Enhances α-Synuclein Toxicity, Microglial Advances in Parkinson’s Disease, Microglial Advances in Alzheimer’s Disease, and more.
