Neurocyte Immunophenotyping: Glial Cells as a Therapeutic Target
Glial cells, including microglia and astrocytes, are no longer viewed as static, supportive elements of the nervous system. The emergence of novel single-cell techniques allows for a deeper understanding of how these cells influence pain pathways, central sensitization, and disease susceptibility. By accurately phenotyping distinct glial subsets, researchers can now identify new therapeutic targets to modulate these cellular behaviors, offering a promising avenue for developing novel migraine treatments.
