This study identifies dark microglia in postnatal mouse hippocampus, showing they perform synapse remodeling via phagocytosis and trogocytosis and depend on TREM2.

This study identifies lipid droplet formation in microglia as a mechanism linking amyloid-beta exposure to impaired phagocytosis in Alzheimer's disease, with DGAT2 as a therapeutic target.

This study shows that a ketogenic diet promotes resistance to stress in mice by altering microglial morphology and lipid profiles in the hippocampus, with distinct effects in stress-susceptible and resistant mice.

The paper identifies capillary-associated microglia (CAMs) and shows they regulate vascular structure and function via PANX1-P2RY12 signaling.
