Department of Neuroscience, Mayo Clinic College of Medicine, Jacksonville, Florida, USA
J Histochem Cytochem 55:687-700. 2007..Because both coronin-1a and IBA-1 are actin-binding proteins that play a role in rearrangement of the membrane cytoskeleton, it suggests that these proteins are critical to dynamic properties of microglia...
