Here we show how #microglia contact #pericytes and #endothelialcells in the #venule end of the #capillary bed. Note also how a #primarycilium of an #interneuron invaginates the microglia. But why? 🤔 journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.... @gazz4science.bsky.social

Here's a fun one for #FluorescenceFriday. Did you know #marsupials have an entirely different CNS vascular anatomy to most animals? Arterioles and venules enter the brain and branch in unison, terminating at capillary loops. Check out this example from a #TasmanianDevil brain! (1/2)

some great starter packs for the #glia, #astrocyte, #oligodendrocyte, #microglia, #neuro researcher: gliasky, astrocytesky, microglia But if you also like interactions between celltypes, please help this starter pack get started. Maybe someone can connect all of us in a feed? go.bsky.app/MHtJzeC

Someone had to do it! I created a starter pack for #Alzheimer’s #dementia #ADRD researchers on Bluesky. Please let me know who I left out! Hoping more and more of us will join Bluesky go.bsky.app/22DpUEy
