  1. PLCγ2 regulates TREM2 signalling and integrin-mediated adhesion and migration of human iPSC-derived macrophages

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 43 out of 100. Scientific reports 2021-10-06 TREM2 and immune genetics

    Human genetic studies have linked rare coding variants in microglial genes, such as TREM2, and more recently PLCG2 to Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology.

  2. Increased NF-κB signalling up-regulates BACE1 expression and its therapeutic potential in Alzheimer's disease

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. The international journal of neuropsychopharmacology 2011-02-18 Risk genes beyond APOE

    Elevated levels of β-site APP cleaving enzyme 1 (BACE1) were found in the brain of some sporadic Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients; however, the underlying mechanism is unknown.
