Juvenile depletion of microglia reduces orientation but not high spatial frequency selectivity in mouse v1

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Dario X. Figueroa Velez from the DepartmentUniversity of have published the research work: Juvenile depletion of microglia reduces orientation but not high spatial frequency selectivity in mouse V1, in the Journal: Scientific Reports Scientific Reports
  • what: The authors show that the inhibitory population becomes more selective to stimulus orientation. The study provides compelling evidence for a key role for microglia in the postnatal development of sensory systems and suggests that microglia deficiencies during postnatal critical periods may lead to subtle but long-lasting deficits in sensory processing.
  • future: Future studies may reveal . . .
