Abstract:
Schizophrenia is a serious mental disorder that is often associated with profound impairment in patients′ daily functioning, and its etiology and pathophysiology are still to be fully elucidated. There is a pathological correlation between inflammation, brain injuries, and the pathogenesis of schizophrenia, with microglia actively participating in these processes. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the impact of microglial cells on neurodevelopment and neuroplasticity, and microglia abnormalities mediating the onset of schizophrenia by contributing to damage in different brain regions.
