Abstract :
[en] Microglia are the brain's resident immune cells. Under physiological conditions, they participate in a myriad of processes mainly involved in housekeeping functions that promote tissue homeostasis. However, the triggering of an immune response is a common feature in neurodegenerative disorders. This shift in microglia cells toward a chronically activated phenotype contributing to neuronal dysfunction and cell death is of great interest nowadays. In this chapter, we review the implications of microglia activation in different neurodegenerative disorders.
