Amyloid‐β Seeds in Alzheimer's Disease: Research Challenges and Implications
The amyloid cascade hypothesis places amyloid-β (Aβ) at the center of Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathogenesis. Evidence suggests that AD progresses in two phases: an early phase driven by Aβ aggregatio...

I'm curious to know if the microglia repopulation would also work via blood. - Brain-wide microglia replacement using a nonconditioning strategy ameliorates pathology in mouse models of neurological disorders | Science Translational Medicine www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
Brain-wide microglia replacement using a nonconditioning strategy ameliorates pathology in mouse models of neurological disorders
A tricyclic depletion protocol allows for microglia replacement without preconditioning and mitigates pathology in mouse models of neurodegeneration.

Why probability probably doesn’t exist (but it is useful to act like it does)
All of statistics and much of science depends on probability — an astonishing achievement, considering no one’s really sure what it is.
