The APOE isoforms differentially shape the transcriptomic and epigenomic landscapes of human microglia xenografted into a mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease

Abstract Microglia play a key role in the response to amyloid beta in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). In this context, the major transcriptional response of microglia is the upregulation of APOE, the strongest late-onset AD risk gene. Of its three isoforms, APOE2 is thought to be protective, while APOE4 i...
