Chronic central-targeted Interleukin-6 overexpression promotes hippocampal and cortical neuropathology in the Tg2576 mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease
2025-02-08
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Summary</h4> Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a cytokine detected in the brains and peripheral fluids of both Alzheimer’s disease (AD) patients and mouse models, where it colocalizes with amyloid-beta (Aβ) levels and amyloid plaques. Interestingly, IL-6 deficiency ameliorates cognitive deficits and attenuates hippocampal neuroinflammation, whereas astrocyte-targeted IL-6 signaling via its soluble receptor accentuates...
