Targeting microglia with lentivirus and AAV: Recent advances and remaining challenges
Open accessAbstract
Microglia have emerged as a critical component of neurodegenerative diseases. Genetic manipulation of microglia can elucidate their functional impact in disease. In neuroscience, recombinant viruses such as lentiviruses and adeno-associated viruses (AAVs) have been successfully used to target various cell types in the brain, although effective transduction of microglia is rare. In this review, we provide a short background of lentiviruses and AAVs, and strategies for designing recombinant viral vectors. Then, we will summarize recent literature on successful microglial transductions in vitro and in vivo, and discuss the current challenges. Finally, we provide guidelines for reporting the efficiency and specificity of viral targeting in microglia, which will enable the microglial research community to assess and improve methodologies for future studies.

Alterations in microglia can lead to alterations in behavior in mice.
“It is widely known that alterations in microglia can lead to alterations in behavior in mice5,13–15.”
From Constitutive expression of CX3CR1-BAC-Cre introduces minimal off-target effects in microglia (2026) · cites this paper as [13]
The CX3CR1 receptor is involved in neuron-microglia fractalkine signaling, which plays a vital role in microglial developmental synaptic pruning and homeostasis.
“The CX3CR1 receptor is involved in neuron-microglia fractalkine signaling, which plays a vital role in microglial developmental synaptic pruning and homeostasis.”
From Constitutive expression of CX3CR1-BAC-Cre introduces minimal off-target effects in microglia (2026) · cites this paper as [13]
The Microglia-specific transgene expression section describes a Cx3cr1-based mouse model for targeting microglia, but does not discuss the receptor’s signaling function. Searches for fractalkine signaling and developmental synaptic pruning found no passage in our copy linking CX3CR1 to those processes or to homeostasis; the nearby references do not establish that claim. (LLM, conf=0.73)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredLoss and deficiency of the CX3CR1 receptor can alter microglial number, subsequently altering microglia-mediated synaptic pruning during developmental ages.
“Its loss and deficiency can alter microglial number, subsequently altering microglia-mediated synaptic pruning during developmental ages13,18.”
From Constitutive expression of CX3CR1-BAC-Cre introduces minimal off-target effects in microglia (2026) · cites this paper as [13]
The Microglia-specific transgene expression section (page unavailable) discusses a Cx3cr1-based mouse model as a way to target microglia, not the effects of losing the receptor. Searches for CX3CR1 deficiency, microglial number, and developmental synaptic pruning found no passage in our copy addressing the claimed sequence of effects. (LLM, conf=0.74)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
