Neural Progenitor Cells Regulate Microglia Functions and Activity States
We observed that mouse neural progenitor cells (NPCs) have a secretory protein profile distinct from other brain cells and modulate microglial activation, proliferation, and phagocytosis in culture and in vivo. NPC-derived vascular endothelial growth factor was necessary and sufficient to exert at l...
