Abstract excerpt
Progranulin (PGRN) is predominantly expressed by microglia in the brain, and genetic and experimental evidence suggests a critical role in Alzheimer's disease (AD). We asked whether PGRN expression is changed in a disease severity‐specific manner in AD. We measured PGRN in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in two of the best‐characterized AD patient cohorts, namely the Dominant Inherited Alzheimer's Disease Network...
