Microglia retinal

The retina also contains three other types of gUa astrocytes, oligodendrocytes and microglia. Retinal astrocytes are located primarily in the NFL and oligodendrocytes form the myelin sheath of axons in the optic nerve. Hematopoetically derived microglia are small stellate cells that, when quiescent, associate with inner retinal blood vessels. [Pg.131]

Retinal detachment associated with vitreoretinopathy as a result of complication of ocular trauma is mediated solely by microglia. [Pg.102]

Microglia are capable of antigen detection and specifically display Fc receptors.64 This demonstrates that transfection may occur via Fc receptors or via the CD4 antigen, which is a viral receptor expressed on microglial cells.42 Access to retinal and brain tissue may occur after breakdown of the BRB and BBB.63... [Pg.126]

Leukocyte-derived cytokines like IL-4119 have been found to protect the cocultured neurons from the neurotoxic activity of brain microglia. Although these experiments are performed with nonretinal microglia, they allow a certain degree of extrapolation as to their possible use as inhibiting cytokines for blocking retinal... [Pg.136]

Activation of microglia by cytokines can produce NO (by iNOS) and superoxide that can diffuse into the neighboring neurones and cause damage. Microglia play an important role in retinal degeneration. In glaucoma, astrocytes in the optic nerve exhibit functional and biochemical characteristics of activation... [Pg.65]
