## Abstract In this review we summarize mechanisms of Ca^2+^ signaling in microglial cells and the impact of Ca^2+^ signaling and Ca^2+^ levels on microglial function. So far, Ca^2+^ signaling has been only characterized in cultured microglia and thus these data refer rather to activated microglia

## Abstract Lactate is transported across cell membranes by diffusional, saturable cotransport with protons, mediated by monocarboxylate transporters (MCTs). This transport is bidirectional and in the absence of a transcellular H^+^ gradient, it can increase the intracellular concentration of lacta
