Open AccessElimination of microglia improves cognitive function following cranial irradiation
Cranial irradiation for the treatment of brain cancer elicits progressive and severe cognitive dysfunction that is associated with significant neuropathology. Radiation injury in the CNS has been linked to per...

Open AccessSustained microglial depletion with CSF1R inhibitor impairs parenchymal plaque development in an Alzheimer’s disease model
Many risk genes for the development of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) are exclusively or highly expressed in myeloid cells. Microglia are dependent on colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF1R) signaling for their...

Open AccessGeneration of a humanized Aβ expressing mouse demonstrating aspects of Alzheimer’s disease-like pathology
The majority of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) cases are late-onset and occur sporadically, however most mouse models of the disease harbor pathogenic mutations, rendering them better representations of familial aut...

Open AccessSystematic phenoty** and characterization of the 5xFAD mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease
Mouse models of human diseases are invaluable tools for studying pathogenic mechanisms and testing interventions and therapeutics. For disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease in which numerous models are being g...

Open AccessCortical diurnal rhythms remain intact with microglial depletion
Microglia are subject to change in tandem with the endogenously generated biological oscillations known as our circadian rhythm. Studies have shown microglia harbor an intrinsic molecular clock which regulates...
