Reduction of Amyloid Burden by Proliferated Homeostatic Microglia in <i>Toxoplasma gondii</i>-Infected Alzheimer’s Disease Model Mice

In this study, we confirmed that the number of resident homeostatic microglia increases during chronic <i>Toxoplasma gondii</i> infection. Given that the progression of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) worsens with the accumulation of amyloid β (Aβ) plaques, which are eliminated through microgli...
