Diets differing in α-linolenic acid content have limited effects on microglial polarization. The expression of M1 microglia/macrophage markers CD-16 and CD-32 (a, b) and M2 microglia/macrophage markers CD-206, Arg-1, and Ym1/2 (c-e) was increased in peri-contusional cortex after traumatic brain injury. Dietary α-linolenic acid (ALA) content showed no effect on the expression of these markers in general, with the exception of CD-206 at 24 h after TBI. n = 3–4. *p < 0.05 vs low ALA at the same time points. Data are expressed as mean ± SD
