Now that we know that microglia originate in early embryos, theoretically we should be able to generate microglia from embryonic stem cells to treat brain diseases caused by defective microglia.

现在，我们知道小胶质细胞起源于早期胚胎，理论上，我们可以从胚胎干细胞制造小胶质细胞，从而治愈因小胶质细胞缺陷而引起的脑病。

They will be particularly interested in immune cells known as "microglia", which go around mopping up cellular debris.

他们对被称为“小神经胶质细胞”的这种免疫细胞尤其感兴趣，该细胞到处游走，清理细胞残骸。

Microglia are like the body's natural garbage collection cells that rush to damaged or inflamed areas to get rid of toxic substances.

小胶质细胞就像是机体中自然产生的垃圾收集细胞，它能够转移到受损或发炎区域来处理这些毒性物质。
