Figure 1. Classification of microglial morphology.

Figure 1

Representative photos depicting the four classifications of microglial morphology that correspond to differences in microglial function, round/amoeboid microglia (40X), microglia with stout processes (40X), microglia with thick long processes (20X), and microglia with thin ramified processes (20X). Scale bars: solid line = 10 μm, dashed line = 50 μm.
