Experimental system: Cell types: primary mouse retinal microglia; primary mouse retinal microvascular endothelial cells (mRMECs); murine retinal ganglion cell line RGC-5. Injury model: OGD/R in microglia. Intervention: CD36 knockdown by shRNA plasmid; rescue by exogenous CSF3 (100 ng/mL). Co-culture: Transwell inserts to assess microglia-mediated effects on RGC-5 and mRMECs. Experimental groups (group codes) See 00_README/GROUP_CODES.tsv. Core groups used across assays: Control, OGD/R, OGD/R+shNC, OGD/R+shCD36, OGD/R+shCD36+CSF3 (100 ng/mL); Dose-finding groups for CSF3 on microglia apoptosis: Control,CSF3_10, CSF3_50, CSF3_100, CSF3_150. Data types included RAW data: ELISA plate reader exports and concentrations (pg/mL) calculated from standard curves (CSF3, TNF-α, IL-1β, TGF-β, IL-10); qPCR instrument exports (Ct), melt curves and 2^−ΔΔCt results; Western blot uncropped scans and processed data; Flow cytometry FCS files, images and Flow apoptosis summary tables (early/late apoptosis, total apoptosis); CCK-8 normalized viability; Microscopy images (immunofluorescence INOS,Arg1,TUJ1; scratch; invasion; tube formation) PROCESSED data and quantified microscopy metrics (migration rate, invaded cell count, tube formation metrics) Folder structure:00_README/: documentation, data dictionary, file manifest, experiment design, group codes, data dictionary  01_PROTOCOLS/: experimental protocols (PDF)02_RAW_DATA/: raw instrument outputs, images and processed/derived data tables used for statistics and plots03_FIGURES_FOR_PAPER/: figure-ready panels 04_SUPPLEMENTARY/: Construction of Mouse CD36 Interference Vector, RGC5 STR report and atlasFile naming convention Files follow: [Project]_[Assay]_[Cell]_[Group]_[TargetOrReadout]_[Rep]_[DateYYYYMMDD]_[Instrument]_[RAW|PROC]_v01.[ext]How to reproduce the main statistics Primary statistical analysis: One-way ANOVA (GraphPad Prism 9) with significance threshold p < 0.05 . Ethics and compliance: No human participants or identifiable personal data are included. Primary mouse retinal microglia and mRMECs were commercially purchased; no animal procedures for cell isolation were performed, therefore no local animal ethics approval number is available. RGC-5 authentication: STR report included. RGC-5 STR authentication report is provided in 04_SUPPLEMENTARY/STR_RGC5_report. Data license: CC BY 4.0
