This book presents a comprehensive toolkit of versatile techniques for studying microglia under different experimental settings along with a brief summary of knowledge, accumulated in microglial research over the last decades. Beginning with recently discovered roles of microglia in health and disease, the volume continues by covering
in vitro
analyses of microglia,
in vivo
studies, and "omics" analyses. Written for the highly successful
Methods in Molecular Biology
series, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.
Authoritative and cutting-edge,
Microglia: Methods and Protocols
serves as a vital guide to these important cells and an inspiration for scientists interested in expanding our knowledge of their role in the nervous system.
