However, under moderate activation, microglia have a neuroprotective role by the release of anti-inflammatory mediators, such as Arg1, IL-4, IL-10, TGF-beta, CCL17, interferon growth factor 1 (IGF-1), GDNF, BDNF, platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) (reviewed in [29,40,41])
It is also explored for its potential role in supporting growth hormone activity and reducing oxidative stress in neural tissue
