Trem2 deletion enhances tau dispersion and pathology through microglia exosomes

Abstract Background Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder that manifests sequential Aβ and tau brain pathology with age-dependent onset. Variants in the microglial immune receptor TREM2 are associated with enhanced risk of onset in sporadic Alzheimer’s disease (AD). While recent s...
