This study shows that systemic LPS induces a coordinated sickness state in female BALB/c mice, linking peripheral inflammation with metabolic, redox, neuronal, and behavioral changes.

The paper creates a microglia forebrain assembloid to study human brain development and neuroimmune interactions, showing microglia's role in cortex formation and metabolic changes.

The paper compares differential expression and co-expression network analysis for microglia transcriptomics, finding co-expression analysis better identifies functional ontologies.
