摘要

Activation of transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGFβ) signaling in early postnatal mouse microglia is essential for the induction of a microglia-specific gene expression signature including Tmem119, Olfml3, P2ry12, Sall1, Hexb, Gpr34, Fcrls, and SiglecH. Proper activation of TGFβ1 from its latent complex and subsequent microglia-surface binding of active TGFβ1 is as essential as the presence of TGFβ signaling receptors. Loss of TGFβ1-induced microglia maturation in mice results in impaired oligodendrocyte maturation, hypomyelination, loss of inhibitory cortical interneurons, and the development of spastic motor deficits. TGFβ signaling is pivotal in the prevention of excessive activation of adult mouse microglia under physiological conditions. Silencing of TGFβ signaling in mature microglia does not seem to affect the homeostatic microglia gene expression signature. The first approaches to silencing microglial TGFβ signaling in mouse models of CNS diseases has resulted in exacerbated disease progression due to uncontrolled microglia reactivity. The pleiotropic cytokine transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGFβ1) plays pivotal roles in different cell types, including immune cells such as T cells, monocytes/macrophages, and microglia. Microglia are essential during physiological and pathological events. Maturation of postnatal microglia, as well as the regulation of the complex functional repertoire of microglia, needs to be carefully orchestrated. However, an understanding of how mammalian microglia maturation and disease-associated microglia activation is regulated remains fragmentary. Here, we summarize recent observations made by employing transgenic approaches to silence microglial TGFβ signaling in mice. These revealed that TGFβ1 and TGFβ signaling are indispensable for microglia maturation, adult microglia homeostasis, and the control of microglia activation in central nervous system pathologies.
