Microglia are the primary immune cells of the central nervous system. However, recent data indicate that microglia also contribute to diverse physiological and pathophysiological processes that extend beyond immune-related functions, e.g. brain development. Microglia are ontogenetically and functionally distinct from monocyte-derived macrophages that infiltrate the CNS under pathological conditions.
Synaptic Systems offers now new antibodies against TMEM119, also referred to as OBIF, a protein which is an excellent marker for microglia in the brain. In contrast to other established microglia-marker proteins, TMEM119 is in the CNS specific for microglia and cannot be found on macrophages.
