CSF1R mediates microglial proliferation and survival. CSF1R-targeted peptide conjugates incorporating circadian-modifying sequences (PER2 phosphodegron mimetics) can selectively enter microglia via receptor-mediated endocytosis, stabilizing PER2 and driving circadian phase shifts.

CRISPR-Cas9 systems delivered via CX3CR1-Cre drivers can achieve conditional deletion of BMAL1 specifically in microglia, testing whether microglial autonomous circadian clocks exist. CX3CR1-Cre;BMAL1-flox mice enable genetic validation of microglial clock function, though interpretation is confounded by peripheral immune cell targeting.
