Microglial activation and tau propagate jointly across Braak stages
Compelling experimental evidence suggests that microglial activation is involved in the
spread of tau tangles over the neocortex in Alzheimer's disease (AD). We tested the …

[HTML][HTML] Fibrillar Aβ triggers microglial proteome alterations and dysfunction in Alzheimer mouse models
L Sebastian Monasor, SA Müller, AV Colombo… - Elife, 2020 - elifesciences.org
Microglial dysfunction is a key pathological feature of Alzheimer's disease (AD), but little is

Complement and microglia mediate early synapse loss in Alzheimer mouse models
Synapse loss in Alzheimer's disease (AD) correlates with cognitive decline. Involvement of
microglia and complement in AD has been attributed to neuroinflammation, prominent late in …

[HTML][HTML] Basal forebrain degeneration precedes and predicts the cortical spread of Alzheimer's pathology
TW Schmitz, R Nathan Spreng - Nature communications, 2016 - nature.com
There is considerable debate whether Alzheimer's disease (AD) originates in basal
forebrain or entorhinal cortex. Here we examined whether longitudinal decreases in basal …
