SHENZHEN, April 7 (Xinhua) -- Chinese scientists have, for the first time, confirmed the existence of microglia in the peripheral nervous system ... a subset of tissue resident immune cells ...

"Initially, we observed microglia in non-CNS tissues but could not confirm their presence in the PNS (peripheral nervous system). This uncertainty drove over a year of rigorous investigation ...

The data convincingly show that the transcription factor Sp1 regulates ephrin-mediated axon guidance in the spinal cord. Although the authors show that Sp1 and its co-activators p300 and CBP are ...
