Several receptors, such as toll-like receptors, purinergic receptors, chemokine receptor CCR2, Fc receptors, receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE), cysteinyl leukotriene receptor 2, galectin-3, and CD36, were shown to be involved in mediating microglia activation and its functions including inflammation, motility, migration, phagocytosis, and survival during ischemic stroke [8]. This evidence concerns the gene CD36 and ischemic stroke.
