Our new paper is out! Amyloid plaques switch on microglial GPC4, increasing neuronal tau uptake & toxicity—defining an amyloid→glia→tau pathway & a potential drug target. Pleasure to work with our collaborator @jcoutinhobudd.bsky.social. doi.org/10.1186/s130...

β-Amyloid induces microglial expression of GPC4 and APOE leading to increased neuronal tau pathology and toxicity - Molecular Neurodegeneration
To define how Aβ pathology alters microglia function in Alzheimer’s disease, we profiled the microglia surfaceome following treatment with Aβ fibrils. Our findings reveal that Aβ-associated human micr...
