Watch to the end! Immune cells in the retina remain flat until damage is detected. Cells change their shape and dive deep in response to damage (pink cell)

Microglia (white/green) are immune cells that live in specific layers in the retina.
In response to injury, they migrate into location of damage.

NEUTROPHILS are rare immune cells flowing within trillions of blood cells of the body. Using #AdaptiveOptics cameras, we directly image fluorescent neutrophils in the vessels of the eye

When retinal cells die, who cleans up?
Non-invasive imaging shows microglia👇 rush to help but don’t recruit neutrophils from the bloodstream. @urneuroscience.bsky.social @cvsuor.bsky.social

Dynamic Sholl analysis is a way to characterize the complexity cell process remodeling over time. Here SchallekLab is using it to show microglia dynamism in the living eye using #adaptiveoptics

In times when it seems like much is falling apart... I find it useful to re-orient and look upward.
