Part 2: Mediators of Inflammation in the Brain & CNS: Microglia & Astrocytes
Glial cells are 80% of our cerebral cortex and play a major role in how our brains function. Dr. Gary Kaplan explains what factors influence the "upregulation" of two types of glial cells, microglia and astrocytes, whose job it is to "clean up" the brain and modulate other important activities, and what happens when these cells remain in a heightened state of activity.
