Activation of microglial cells occurs during the pathogenesis of various neurologic diseases. However, the mechanisms of activation in vivo are still elusive. We infused adult rats intravenously with interferon-g and demonstrated microglial cell activation after three days of treatment. We show for
Using morphological, immunocytochemical, and functional parameters we have previously shown that highly purified adult rat microglial cells undergo a process of "activation" when cultured in a serum-containing medium in the absence of added proinflammatory substances or other factors (Slepko and Lev
The flow cytometric analysis of apoptosis in lymphocytes from in vivo samples has been difficult because of the low frequency of apoptotic events. To overcome this obstacle, many investigators have relied on in vitro incubations to increase the number of apoptotic cells before analysis. In this repo
