The pro-remyelination properties of microglia in the central nervous system

Nature Reviews Neurology, Published online: 29 June 2019; doi:10.1038/s41582-019-0184-2In this Review, Lloyd and Miron consider how regulation of microglial activation influences the ability of microglia to promote remyelination in the CNS. They also discuss the potential to exploit the pre-remyelination properties of microglia to treat multiple sclerosis and other demyelinating diseases.
