Stylized depiction of a microglial cell with an ovoid soma and extensively ramified processes radiating in all directions. In neuroanatomy and neuroimmunology, microglia are resident immune cells (type: glial cell) of the central nervous system (CNS), located within brain and spinal cord parenchyma. This cell surveys the neural microenvironment, phagocytoses debris and pathogens, and modulates synaptic remodeling via cytokine signaling. The illustration shows a single cell within nervous tissue, highlighting a cell-level component within the CNS hierarchy.
