Identification of an Astrocyte Cell Population from Human Brain that Expresses Perforin, a Cytotoxic Protein Implicated in Immune Defense
The brain is an immunoprivileged organ isolated from the peripheral immune system. However, it has been shown that resident cells, notably astrocytes and microglia, can express numerous innate immune molecules, providing the capacity to generate a local antipathogen system. Perforin is a cytolytic p...
