Microglia‐specific ApoE knock‐out does not alter Alzheimer's disease plaque pathogenesis or gene expression
13 Oct 2021
Abstract excerpt
Previous studies suggest that microglial-expressed Apolipoprotein E (ApoE) is necessary to shift microglia into a neurodegenerative transcriptional state in Alzheimer's disease (AD) mouse models. On the other hand, elimination of microglia shifts amyloid beta (Aβ) accumulation from parenchymal plaques to cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA), mimicking the effects of global APOE*4 knock-in. Here, we specifically...
