TLDR
By better understanding AD inflammatory and immunoregulatory processes, it should be possible to develop anti-inflammatory approaches that may not cure AD but will likely help slow the progression or delay the onset of this devastating disorder.About:

TL;DR: In searching for T-cell gateways into and out of the meninges, functional lymphatic vessels lining the dural sinuses are discovered, which may call for a reassessment of basic assumptions in neuroimmunology and sheds new light on the aetiology of neuroinflammatory and neurodegenerative diseases associated with immune system dysfunction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanisms underlying inflammation in neurodegeneration.
TL;DR: There is evidence for a remarkable convergence in the mechanisms responsible for the sensing, transduction, and amplification of inflammatory processes that result in the production of neurotoxic mediators in neurodegenerative diseases.

Intraneuronal beta-amyloid aggregates, neurodegeneration, and neuron loss in transgenic mice with five familial Alzheimer's disease mutations: potential factors in amyloid plaque formation.

TL;DR: 5XFAD mice rapidly recapitulate major features of AD amyloid pathology and may be useful models of intraneuronal Aβ42-induced neurodegeneration and amyloids plaque formation.

TL;DR: These findings strongly implicate variant TREM2 in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease and find that carriers of rs75932628-T between the ages of 80 and 100 years without Alzheimer’s disease had poorer cognitive function than noncarriers.

Cellular localization of tumor necrosis factor alpha following focal cerebral ischemia in mice
TL;DR: The presence of TNFalpha immunoreactivity in neurons and nerve fibers following MCAO suggests that TNF Alpha expressed in ischemic neurons might be delivered via axonal transport, while TNF alpha immunore activity in astrocyte end-feet and ependymal cells following M CAO suggests That TNFAlpha may be involved in blood-brain barrier disruption and the initiation of inflammation in the brain.

Propentofylline in the Treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease and Vascular Dementia: A Review of Phase III Trials
Matthias Rother,Timo Erkinjuntti,Martin Roessner,Barbara Kittner,Jan Marcusson,Ingvar Karlsson +5 more
TL;DR: Results from a drug withdrawal study suggested that propentofylline does not merely relieve dementia symptoms but slows the progression of the disease itself, and was found to provide consistent improvements over placebo in efficacy assessments for both AD and VaD patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Production and secretion of plasminogen in cultured rat brain microglia.
TL;DR: Results show that cultured microglia produce plasminogen and secrete it into the culture medium and that the plasmine detected in microglial conditioned medium is synthesized inmicroglia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neural functions of the transforming growth factors β
TL;DR: TGF-13s are potent neuroprotective agents that govern early steps in morphogenesis and phenotypic decisions and regulate astroglial cell proliferation and phenotype.
