Tumour necrosis factor alpha-induced neuronal loss is mediated by microglial phagocytosis
•TNF-α induces neuronal loss in culture without neuronal necrosis or apoptosis.•TNF-α induces microglial phagocytosis, and the neuronal loss requires microglia.•Neuronal loss requires the microglial vitronectin receptor, P2Y6 receptor and MFG-E8.•Blocking these phagocytic receptors leaves viable neu...
