Abstract

Recent studies highlight microglial replacement as a promising therapeutic approach for neurological disease. Wu et al.<sup>1</sup> demonstrated that transplanted bone marrow-derived cells halted ALSP progression, while Mader et al.<sup>2</sup> introduced a strategy that avoids systemic bone marrow ablation toxicity and reduces immune rejection, collectively validating this strategy's therapeutic potential.
