초록

Microglia are known to have an important function as brain macrophage during immunological processes, oncogenesis, and regeneration in the central nervous system (CNS). A wide variety of ion channels have been identified and characterized in microglia including inward rectifier $K^{+}$ channel (Kir), voltage dependent $K^{+}$ channel (Kv), $Ca^{2+}$-release activated $Ca^{2+}$ channel (CRAC).(omitted)
