Abstract Contemporary microglia morphologies include ramified, activated, and amoeboid, with the morphology of microglia considered highly coupled to the cellular function. Rod microglia are an additional activated microglia variant observed in the aging, injured, and diseased brain. Rod microglia were reported frequently in the early 1900’s by neuropathologists in post-mortem cases of general paresis, Alzheimer’s disease, and encephalitis, and then remained largely ignored for almost 100 years. Recent reports have renewed interest in rod microglia, most notably after experimental traumatic brain injury. Rod microglia are formed by the narrowing of the soma and retraction of planar processes, which results in the appearance of an elongated, rod-shaped cell. Rod microglia are most commonly observed in the cortex, aligned perpendicular to the dural surface adjacent to neuronal processes, and the hippocampus, aligned perpendicular to hippocampal layers. Further, rod microglia form trains with one another, apical end to basal end. By replicating the process of sketching microscopic observation, rod microglia are redefined by circumnutation around the long axis. In this update, we summarize the rod microglia variant in clinical and experimental literature and advocate for investigation into mechanisms of rod microglia origin and function.
