Our data identifies extracellular cytochrome c as a potential intercellular signaling molecule, which may be recognized by microglia causing or enhancing their immune activation. The data obtained support targeting TLR4 and JNK signaling as potential treatment strategies for brain diseases characterized by excessive cellular death and activation of microglia.
