Abstract excerpt
The TREM2 R47H variant increases the risk of Alzheimer's disease (AD), yet its functional impact in aged mouse models remains incompletely understood. We generated a humanized Trem2 R47H knock-in (KI) line on the AppNL-F background and compared it with a Trem2 knockout (KO) line to assess the degree of TREM2 functional impairment. Accumulation of amyloid β 42 and formation of dystrophic neurites were increased in...
