Plaque-associated human microglia accumulate lipid droplets in a chimeric model of Alzheimer’s disease
Abstract Background Disease-associated microglia (DAMs), that surround beta-amyloid plaques, represent a transcriptionally-distinct microglial profile in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Activation of DAMs is dependent on triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (TREM2) in mouse models and the AD T...
