    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 38 out of 100. The American journal of Chinese medicine 2020-12-10 TREM2 and immune genetics

    Macrophage autophagy defect is closely related to the progression of atherosclerosis (AS) and is regulated by the triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cell 2 (TREM2).

  2. Okadaic acid-induced tau hyperphosphorylation and the downregulation of Pin1 expression in primary cortical neurons

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 38 out of 100. Journal of chemical neuroanatomy 2018-05-31 Drug development

    Hyperphosphorylation of tau leading to neurofibrillary tangles (NFT) is one of the key pathological hallmarks in neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer disease (AD).
