  1. From Common to Rare Variants: The Genetic Component of Alzheimer Disease

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Human heredity 2016-12-22 TREM2 and immune genetics

    Alzheimer disease (AD) is a remarkable example of genetic heterogeneity.

  2. Extracellular Mitochondria and Mitochondrial Components Act as Damage-Associated Molecular Pattern Molecules in the Mouse Brain

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Journal of neuroimmune pharmacology : the official journal of the Society on NeuroImmune Pharmacology 2016-08-25 TREM2 and immune genetics

    Mitochondria and mitochondrial debris are found in the brain's extracellular space, and extracellular mitochondrial components can act as damage associated molecular pattern (DAMP) molecules.
