Microglia are the immune cells of the brain, essential for maintaining a healthy neural environment. Their ability to remodel the actin cytoskeleton is crucial for their protective functions.
Recent studies suggest that these immune cells actively remove unwanted substances, contributing to overall brain health through their dynamic cellular structure.
Understanding how ion channels influence the cytoskeleton in microglia could provide insights into their role in neuroprotection and potential therapeutic approaches for neurological disorders.
