CELF2 regulates the species-specific alternative splicing of TREM2
22 Oct 2020
Abstract excerpt
Genetic variations of TREM2 have been implicated as a risk factor of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Recent studies suggest that the loss of TREM2 function compromises microglial responses to the accumulation of amyloid beta. Previously, we found that exon 3 of TREM2 is an alternative exon whose skipping leads to a reduction in full-length TREM2 protein by inducing nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Here, we aimed to...
