The <i>MS4A</i> gene cluster is a key regulator of soluble TREM2 and Alzheimer disease risk
2018-06-20
Abstract excerpt
Soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (sTREM2) levels in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) have been associated with Alzheimer disease (AD) status. TREM2 plays a critical role in microglial activation, survival, and phagocytosis; however, the pathophysiological role of sTREM2 in AD is not well understood. Understanding the role of sTREM2 in AD may help reveal biological mechanisms underlying AD and...
