      Inflammation in stroke: the role of cholinergic, purinergic and glutamatergic signaling 

      Martín Muñoz, Abraham; Domercq García, María ORCID; Matute Almau, Carlos José (2018-05-04)
      The inflammatory response is a major factor in stroke pathophysiology and contributes to secondary neuronal damage in both acute and chronic stages of the ischemic injury. Recent work in experimental cerebral ischemia has ...

      Neuronal Hyperactivity Disturbs ATP Microgradients, Impairs Microglial Motility, and Reduces Phagocytic Receptor Expression Triggering Apoptosis/Microglial Phagocytosis Uncoupling 

      Abiega Etxabe, Oihane; Beccari Galeano, Marlene Soledad; Diaz-Aparicio, Irune; Nadjar, Agnes; Layé, Sophie; Leyrolle, Quentin; Gómez-Nicola, Diego; Domercq García, María ORCID; Pérez-Samartín, Alberto; Sánchez-Zafra, Víctor; Paris Guerrero, Ignacio; Valero Gómez-Lobo, Jorge; Savage, Julie C.; Hui, Chin-Wai; Tremblay, Marie-Ève; Deudero, Juan J. P.; Brewster, Amy L.; Anderson, Anne E.; Zaldumbide Dueñas, Laura; Galbarriatu, Lara; Marinas, Ainhoa; Vivanco Ruiz, María del Mar; Matute Almau, Carlos José; Maletic-Savatic, Mirjana; Encinas Pérez, Juan Manuel; Sierra Saavedra, Amanda (2016)
      Phagocytosis by microglia is tightly coupled to apoptosis, swiftly removing apoptotic cells and actively maintaining tissue homeostasis, but the neuronal hyperactivity associated with epilepsy disrupts the ATP gradients ...

      Neurotransmitter signaling in the pathophysiology of microglia 

      Domercq García, María ORCID; Vázquez Villoldo, Nuria; Matute Almau, Carlos José (Frontiers Research Foundation, 2013)
      Microglial cells are the resident immune cells of the central nervous system. In the resting state, microglia are highly dynamic and control the environment by rapidly extending and retracting motile processes. Microglia ...
