A common haplotype lowers PU.1 expression in myeloid cells and delays onset of Alzheimer's disease.

TL;DR: Results suggest that lower SPI1 expression reduces AD risk by regulating myeloid gene expression and cell function, and experimentally altered PU.1 levels affected the expression of mouse orthologs of many AD risk genes and the phagocytic activity of mouse microglial cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders

TL;DR: Standardization and homogenization of neurocognitive tests as well as normalizing and simplification of easily accessible tools that can identify patients with increased risk of cognitive impairment represent an urgent requirement.
Journal ArticleDOI

A single-nuclei RNA sequencing study of Mendelian and sporadic AD in the human brain

TL;DR: A collection of best practices is proposed to generate a highly detailed molecular cell atlas of highly informative frozen tissue stored in brain banks and whether single-nuclei RNA-seq from the human brains recapitulate the expression profile of disease-associated microglia discovered in mouse models.
