Central nervous system-associated macrophages (CAMs) are a unique subset of immune cells located at the interface between the blood and the brain parenchyma. In a recent study in mice, Levard and colleagues found that CAMs regulate immune cell trafficking, endothelial activation, and antigen presentation following stroke exclusively in aged animals, underscoring the importance of using translationally relevant models for studying age-related diseases.
中枢神经系统相关巨噬细胞(CAMs)是位于血液与脑实质之间界面处的一类独特免疫细胞亚群。在最近一项针对小鼠的研究中,勒瓦尔德及其同事发现,CAMs仅在老年动物中风后调节免疫细胞运输、内皮细胞活化和抗原呈递,这突出了使用与转化相关的模型来研究年龄相关疾病的重要性。
