Reducing microglial activity in the presence of apolipoprotein E4 (APOE4) has uncovered a mechanism associated with the deposition of misfolded amyloid and tau in a novel mouse model of Alzheimer’s ...
We are interested in how novel non-neuronal mechanisms contribute to drug addiction. There is growing recognition that microglial proinflammatory actions play an important role in the brain’s response ...
The microglia, in turn, seem to benefit, revving up metabolism and phagocytosis. The liver protein ApoA-I was particularly good at bolstering the latter. Overall, the findings suggest that the brain’s ...
POLK expression in neurons and report an important observation that POLK exhibits an age-dependent change in subcellular localization, from the nucleus in young tissue to the cytoplasm in old tissue.
