About this Research Topic
This Research Topic is part of the 15 Year Anniversary of Cellular Neuroscience Research Topic series, which has been organized in collaboration with the Neuroscience portfolio at Frontiers to celebrate the 15 Year Anniversary of the journal by highlighting some of the most impactful research areas in this field and providing discussion around the latest advances in Microglia research as well as new research on this important topic.
By following its mission to freely disseminate high-quality research with a worldwide reach, Frontiers in Non-neuronal cells will continue to play a key role in accelerating the progress of Cellular Neuroscience research and making Open Science a global reality.
This Research Topic article collection focuses on Microglia’s roles during (neuro)inflammation. This is a relatively new and exciting area of research that Frontiers is excited to host a Research Topic on.
The Research Topic welcome contributions from researchers around the globe in the form of Original Research, Review, Mini Review, and Perspectives focusing on, but not limited to the following subtopics:
• Heterogeneity of Microglia: Phenotypic and Functional Diversity (M1/M2)
• Microglial Reactivity and Its Dual Role in (Neuro)inflammation
• Microglial Responses in Human (Neuro)inflammation
• Examining the mechanisms behind these responses
• Microglial Activities in Experimental (Neuro)inflammation
• Implications of microglia phagocytosis to neuronal plasticity and survival
• Dual role of microglia on neurogenesis
• Novel molecules that modulate microglia activity
