Abstract
Microglia and astrocytes are the most extensively studied cells beyond neurons in the CNS and are in a dynamic communication in healthy and diseased brains. Chronic neuroinflammation can cause synaptic dysfunction and neuronal death, being a common feature of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease (AD). In the past years, it has become evident that metabolism regulates th…
