  1. Deletion of Alzheimer's disease-associated CD33 results in an inflammatory human microglia phenotype

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 40 out of 100. Glia 2021-02-04 Genetics

    Genome-wide association studies demonstrated that polymorphisms in the CD33/sialic acid-binding immunoglobulin-like lectin 3 gene are associated with late-onset Alzheimer's disease (AD).

  2. Bilberry anthocyanins improve neuroinflammation and cognitive dysfunction in APP/PSEN1 mice via the CD33/TREM2/TYROBP signaling pathway in microglia

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 38 out of 100. Food & function 2020-02-01 TREM2 and immune genetics

    Alzheimer's disease, characterized by neuroinflammation and beta-amyloid protein plaques, is a memory-threatening neurodegenerative disease with no effective treatment.

  3. Evaluation of CD33 as a genetic risk factor for Alzheimer's disease

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 41 out of 100. Acta neuropathologica 2019-04-04 Genetics

    In 2011, genome-wide association studies implicated a polymorphism near CD33 as a genetic risk factor for Alzheimer's disease.

  4. Replication of EPHA1 and CD33 associations with late-onset Alzheimer's disease: a multi-centre case-control study

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 72 out of 100. Molecular neurodegeneration 2011-07-28 Genetics

    Our data overwhelmingly support the association of EPHA1 and CD33 variants with LOAD risk: addition of our data to the results previously reported (total n > 42,000) increased the strength of evidence for these variants, providing impressive p-values of 2.1 × 10-15 (EPHA1) and 1.8 × 10-13 (CD33).
