Single cell RNA sequencing of human microglia uncovers a subset associated with Alzheimer’s disease

Imbalance of microglial phenotypes in the aging brain might underlie their involvement in late onset neurodegenerative diseases. Here we report the population structure of microglia in the aged human brain and the reduction of a particular microglia subset in individuals with Alzheimer’s disease ....
