Tumour necrosis factor alpha-induced neuronal loss is mediated by microglial phagocytosis

Tumour necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) is a pro-inflammatory cytokine, expressed in many brain pathologies and associated with neuronal loss. We show here that addition of TNF-α to neuronal–glial co-cultures increases microglial proliferation and phagocytosis, and results in neuronal loss that is prevente...
