Abstract excerpt
'Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2' (TREM2) gene is involved in Alzheimer's disease (AD) and TREM2 mRNA expression is known to be increased in the peripheral blood cells of AD patients. In this study, we examined the expression levels of TREM2 mRNA in peripheral leukocytes of early and late-onset AD patients. We have also investigated the effect of the presence of APOE ε4 allele on TREM2...
